Hello:
I　just started preparing step II. I'm not sure which review I should buy. Could you please tell me to top books recommended?

Thank you.

Stick to kaplan lecture notes! If you can get the videos, great, if not, I know a couple of persons that did not look at a single video and still got a 99...

then master the info in uw and you'll be all set.

as easy as that, i would say! wink

good luck!

Do Kaplan LN once , then start UW along with your second review of LN .If you're a fresh graduate you don't need anything else.

What about older granduate? Would Kaplan LN twice and UW be enough?

Thanks.

Old graduate is a wide srectrum!!

I don't know what is the exact cut-off point for old graduate ,

But a a rule of thumb : NO , it is not enough

Thanks, nightflight1945 for your reply. I think 90's graduates are "older" like myself. Bottom line - I have to study harder.

Your welcome ,

Kaplan LN + UW twice is a good main core for you and then the diseases that you think you don't understand or important diseases like DM or ER cases which are very frequent in the exam --------------> more emphasize and use of some books like CMDT (just selected reading not the whole book)
