secrets is excellent for step 2 in my opnion, i luvd it!!!!!! yes it is same thing as crush just diff format, but even if u dont have newest edtion it wont matter, u will have had done uworld and added to u knowledge base and that will suffice, secrets reviews in ques/ans format to solidify the basics, which is what these exams are about.. nail the basic concepts cold, then worry about other rare diseases and their details.. but know these basics down pat then u dont have to worry, and the basics dont change from edition to edition, rite?? best of lck!!!! cool

  #5

yeah, i started secrets, just love itnod
anyway, thanks!!

hitesh: I'm reading FA now, It has a lot of good stuff, but like the FA for Step 1, it is not enough; so it can be helpfull, but kaplan books + uw is the best and some people say is the only you need for a high score

IF you have enough time , really believe me JUST Kaplan + UW.DO it twice or more.and during doing tests if you think you have not understand the main concept of a disease (esp important ones ) take a look at some more sophisticated review books .But Kaplan+UW is all u need.
IN my Opinion do not go for secrets or crash or....If you have enough time you can do Kaplan Q bank.

Regards
