not as is in questions and answers to review from?

  #13

smiling face ... look dear, if your really planning to take this exam i advise you to go ahead and buy the whole collection of Kaplan LNs (which are indeed review studying material) there are other material for Qs such as Kaplan Q-book.

Try to read many exam experiences, surf Kaplan medical website and usmle.org
