(I bought it yesterday) 3- Lots and lots of questions from the usmleworld and qbook... at the end of each chapter and also at the very end of my review (like one month before the exam...)

Figure out how many pages all the books are. Figure out haw many hours all the videos are. Figure out how many Qs Qbook and UW have. And devide them by the number of days you are willing to spend on them. Do not forget to plan enough time for review.

My case is a little different than yours because I am still a student. I did my first read of all the books along my school courses. I am planning on doing my real preparation in my three month summer vacation. July-Aug-Sep
