Hi studying!! First of all Congratulations a lot!!! Thats a brilliant job!! Will you please let me know what did you use for patho? Did you use goljan path review, BRS or just kaplan? I know you mentioned about goljan audios. But I am interested in knowing reading material for the same. ANd what other Qbanks apart from kaplan will you recommend? Thanks for all your help and good luck in future!!

THANK U ALL..i feel blessed.i unfortunately had a lot of unwanted breaks so i was pressed for time...sometimes i had a week off totally but i wud try to compensate by studying 14 hrs the next day! i used kaqlan dvds very intensively. some of them twice if need be.on days when i was putting in 14 hrs of studies it was difficult to concentrate. when i went thru them initially i wrote in the kaplan notes where the dvds started and ended. so if i wasin thephase where i felt i was staring at a book at gaining nothing id start listening to a dvd. i didnt do brs patho at all. i know its contrary to common advice but i didnt like the format of brs. i used kaplan and goljan only. ive always preferred books wuith more emphasis oin detail than understanding and brs was tooo difficult for me.

i dint have time for nbmes....id rather focus on learning material!! but i did participate in quite a few discussions on the forum. NBMEs are supposed to be the best predictor for step scores...however make sure u dont attempt NBME qs on the forum then or else it wud falsely elevate ur score. id advise u to take an NBME such that u have sufficient time to cover ur weaknesses. take it in time to rescheduele ur date or else it wud simply stress u out.

tolito, with god's blessings, me, u, robins, raves, star1, dr virgo and many more will hopefully do it together in step 2 im sorry i forgot to mention my online resources.. i did not use webpath a lot...used its tutorials on rbc and wbc morphology..very simple and cute!! a must do for ppl who wanna make slides easier for themselves...otherwise i usd it as refernce only. i downloaded most of the stuff in the step 1 download section, but hardly got time to go thru it.. mostly i simply searched for te topics i wanted in google rather than sticking to one site only. i found an amazing link for radiology which i posted in the neuro anat section..unfortunately i found it after my exam..but its meant to be a teaching link and i wud definitely stick to it. for neuro anat images the forum is rich with useful images as they r applicable for a question and the neuro anat ones again, were extremley helpful. ( went over them b4 my exam).. good luck

i tried reading over it in the last week but did not manage to finish it. i did biochem from there as well as nephro. looked at the anatomy in different systems, revised musculoskeletal and neuro..but it was never my main book. i preferred making my mnemonics than sticking to theirs.
