if some 1 knows a way or have them please let me know, i dont need the old ones , they dont go along with the notes, so if u just happen to know how do get them tell ASAP because it would be futile if i got them too late since my exam date date is already set
thanks

yes sir they do exist i ve seen a sample at one of kaplan centers and since they are out there , they must be out here somewhere trust me , the problem is the old kaplan videos are too poor i cant beleive that ppl used to pay 3499 usd for watching those
1- conrad fisher..the best but wasting a lot of time , but cool
2- the gi -pulm -Er guy , not adding too much reading the notes and keep saying sorry, excuse me too much
3- the endocrine guy..thts a sham i guess he's a kaplan student not even a tutor
pedia ...OMG i was about to kill myself
psych..the lady is good
obs--- great
gyne -baddddd
stat-- dr daugherty is a machine , the same always but i like him
surgery--- too ambigous to tell (is he italinan ? any connection to the mob ?)
i didnt see them all, i tried but thats the impression i took so i am doing the new notes on my own they dont get along with the videos anyway and really i dont have 3400 dollars

delmar , the dvds that have been available for download are from 2001/2002 i think..

2008 is way too much to ask , i ll be happy even with dvds of 2005/6 grin..

im listening to fischer - agreed he's cool , but he wastes really alot of time , sometimes make me feel that i can learn alot more in the time he spends jus asking one clinical vignette to students sitting in front of him

basophilia
dvds that ve been told to be necessary r - for medicine - cardio , infectious , and nephro
and for obs gynae - all..
rest all r told to be useless

delmar and basophilia , do lemme know in case u get diamond luck on those dvds grin

I don't think you can get those yet... I have never used it, but since Goljan went there, I am guessing they are not that bad, you can go to the falcon review site, they sell their streamline video for 1000 bucks or so... and I am not a falcon anything... just thought you might want to check it! In the end, I have many friends that have studied for CK just from the books and UW, without seeing one single video and they scored 99!!!

I would definitely watch Conrad and the Neurology guy is good too!!! I think Nephrology is a little boring, but he gives you smart ways to decide in this diagramms!!

Good luck!!

I was thinking about utilizing the time and watch the updated Kaplan DVD'S by enrolling in the 30 visit center prep at kaplan and watch them there and at the same time get the whole material with q bank access for 3 months ? for $ 1899 ?


Is this a good investment ?

  #9

i guess 1900 is too much, the problem with kaplan is that they are tooooooo expensive, and the q bank is not included, thanks for the tip for falcon , but its a waste of time and goljan is adorable and good .... for step 1 and that it, for step 2 nahhhhh i guess ppl seek him in step 2 for pyschological attachment rather than anything else

Cordoba... I don't think it's a good investment... I have told you, I know people that have gotten 99's with just the lecture notes + UW!! My best friend even 263/99 (oh and those were the 2006 notes... latest friends scores 96 and 98, same method... so... use the old videos as a reference, there's not much that has changed!! And if so, use the newer books... 2008-2009 version and you'll be ready to go!!

On the Goljan thing, I think his CK audio sucks, but I am still answering some q's for UW CK directly from Goljan!! The things I remember from him... last q I remember about the splenic flexure being most susceptible to isquemia in spite of the double supply! Goljan says it clearly and they asked it on the UWCK!!!

So, I'll keep reading my path notes for a while, just for fun... haha wink

does anyone have a link to the latest kaplan lecture notes? I have the 2005/2006 . Is there a big difference?? Kindly advise me on that issue. Thanks in advance.

  #16

Delmar any luck so far?

I think we ll have to settle for 2001/2002 videos only..

but do u know anything about kaplan highlights?? these r videos but in summarized form i heard..
I can search for them myself but i wanna know if they r useful or not?

Mogazus , the new notes of kaplan r in forum itself , jus do a little bit of searching here and there.. I cant help u in this regard , as im warned by kaplan once on this issue of breaching their copyrights in another forum disapproval
