just wanting some expert opinion as to how one should approach the step2 ck part;

for example:

do kaplan reading once>>>do UW questions>>kaplan reading>>wards>>>kaplan reading>>>wards

is this ok???


  #2

sounds like a doable one..wards is supposed to be inaccurate btw..will post the link if i find it smiling face looking thru prep journals, i decided in favor of crush the boards.

maa i think you should do great....btw study_ing can i ask why do you favour crush the boards?? and can i download it online.......???

  #5

oceanpearl, i looked at the general opinion, and the majority favored crush the boards. though FA was everyone's favorite for the first step, it isnt so for the second one. iull probably have to browse around to look for a download link.( fa was posted by robbins, dunno abt this one)

i have read both crush step 2 and first aid for step 2 and i think that more people prefer crush over FA due to the fact that crush is a easier to get through(pages wise).

also crush is easier to read because it is written better, FA seems to be written in a bullet point format which alot of people dislike.

on the other hand, crush does have outdated material and FA is very comprehensive information. FA does also have alot of low yeild subject. FA for step 1 and step2 CS is a must but not necessarily a must for step 2ck.

i would say that if you have alot of time read FA if you are short of time read crush. i read both bc i wanted to see which one is better. and i will be reread FA once more before my exam. just bc i perfer to have more knowledge than less.

its a personal choice.
