Hi, guys I'm an Img from Argentina graduated in 1991. Since then made a Residency in Psychiatry, and worked in Argentina until begginings of 2003, moved to the US last year. When I started preparing for Step 2 I was horrified, of course I was updated in my field and in neurology but the rest, ALMOST EVERYTHING, were subjects I had studied 12 or 13 years ago..
I took the exam on December 11, and received my score yesterday, I passed 78/190 that I know It s not a great score but in perpective it is. Not to tell you that the first months I had to study only English...
I prepared the exam with; Blueprints Medicine, OBS/GY and Neurology, reading some chapters from the Cecil's.
Also studied from the First aid and First aid for IMGs.
Made MCQS from QBank and NMS (both highly recommendable!) I didn t buy any book on Peds following the advice of FA for IMGs and studied that subject from First Aid and doing the questions and scored high on Peds..I agree with those people that say that the best books are the ones that you feel comfortable with, so my best advice is do not look for a single source, and make a lot of MCQs..
If I could do it you also can...Good luck to everybody!!
