Hi exm is pretty close , so u might have do ur share already, but kaplan 5 or 6 days [ for u better , ie with 5 day teach, training, with 6th day is like real cs whole day with Feed back ]. Almost all frds took 5 or 6 days prep for 2 wk, some 1 mo then go for exm . Some prep 1 wk after course , go for exm . I hvae not take long course due to my no free time to go for 1 wk kap. There is also in Chicago 3 days kap course by Dr. Broadman is also good but will not train u every case as with case persae , but will train u all cases as general basic Qs rules , detail in v. fast intense way, i got that & is excellent. But u better have prep ahead re with clinical back grd for DDx to qs , investigation wise as all grd will have in in mind already [ I do , but am not recent grd ] & read FA CS general history , Qs , not physical read ahead so u will kn what he & other students r talking abt, since all r prep well , so u will not lost in all short forms abbreviation they r mention about. Only 1 frd attended c3ny , but she practice with frd attended 6 days kap , so .. All frds attened kap & 1 c3ny passed , also frd study with FA & UW only or UW only passed too . Main key is time wise practice even with ur teddy bear as Dr. B. said. Better practice with some one already passed [ advice fr my 99er frds attended kap 5 or 6 d ] or attend the kap courses or at least study well on FA or UW or both with good clinical back grd or know st 2 abit at least . GL

I've heard good reviews about the C3NY review and mixed reviews about the Kaplan one. I guess both of them will boost your confidence and give you a better perspective of what the real exam is like.

Well review re books , course depends on individual, but best go for famous one with ur time, financial, convinient etc . But as I said practice is key . See ur pm & IM , I will send detail re the info . GL

this is what my frnds told me....give exam within one week of classes...otherwise the class wnt affect ur performance if you plan to give after 2 weeks...doing classes boost your confidence and therefore give exam within one week.. bt do your basic study before...i.e. uw and fa
