TommyK's HY concepts are a batch of highly tested concepts that have been put together in both a .doc file and a tutor mode. It's available at http://www.usmle.ca/
I have printed them out and read them in free time. Found it useful to reinforce concepts but not vital. Be careful: there some mistakes in some explanations (for instance in one he was saying that orlistat is statin which is not because it is lipase inhibitor etc)
