2. How did you incorporate board studying thought the year?
a. Use First Aid as you go through the blocks, watch pathoma throughout the year, don't
write off blocks 10 and 11 because a lot of info contained for boards in these
b. Buy pathoma the day micro ends and watch it all year. Buy uworld at the 6th month
mark and get through it once before the study period then reset the bank and do it again
in the study period. Note only 6 month or longer subs get a reset
c. qbank section for the block you're on
d. annotate first aid
e.
f. i did kaplan qbank with 2nd year curricula, used uworld and first aid for the actual
study period
, g. Only Pathoma and first aid till December then hit it hard on questions after winter
break
h. Use First Aid throughout the year - just annotate with notes that you think are good to
remember, makes it easier to have your notes in one place while you're studying
i. Used first aid throughout to annotate as I studied, used it as a guide to focus my
learning and bought Uworld early and worked on questions throughout
j. First Aid for Step 1, UWorld practice questions, class notes
k. Focus on your blocks. Dont kill yourself with first aid until the spring
l. I used first aid with each block and started to do some uworld questions with each
block
m. did 5-10 q's/day but honestly I wouldn't start until January. Just use board book
resources throughout the blocks to start shifting the focus from PowerPoint rote
memorization to board style studying
n. took notes in first aid, went back over throughout year
o. I began in December, annotating my First Aid with relevant class notes. I ended up
buying the new book and not needing any of my old notes. Ie the only notes you really
need to supplement FA are notes from Pathoma or Goljian
p. have DIT lectures finished by April
q. I used the Kaplan qbank. And heavily used first aid as well as pathoma
r. Learn everything in first aid as things come up (no need to annotate until study period).
First aid becomes a primary source after winter brak
s. I should of done UWorld throughout the year! Also First Aid is a terrific resource.
t. Use Pathoma throughout the year and UWorld questions in January/February. Read
through relevant sections of FA as you go through the year
u. Here's all of my great big board advice for the year. First, ignore the crazy people. You
know who I mean, the ones who have already done Kaplan and DIT and are writing
revisions for UWorld as we speak. These people will make you crazy during the year
and it's hard to ignore them sometimes. Remember - EVERYONE STUDIES
DIFFERENTLY. There are some things that everyone will end up using: First Aid,
UWorld, Pathoma. But even those, people have different ways of working them into
their studying. Other than that, everyone will find what works for them! Don't feel like
you have to do ALL the resources available - find one or two things that work for you
and stick with that. Next, you don't really have to start board studying/Uworld until
January. What?! I know, it sounds so late, but trust me, you'll be fine. Uworld tends to
be very comprehensive, multisystem questions so it's not really useful to start now -
you will just get frustrated. THE BEST THING you can do right now is to focus on
doing really well during your blocks. Believe it or not, Temple prepares you really
well! Do well in your classes now and you will remember that info later and it will
make studying easier later on. So study hard for your blocks now and supplement as
needed with Pathoma and First Aid as needed. You don't have to memorize everything
in First Aid just yet, just start familiarizing yourself with it and use it to add to
whatever you are learning in class. Then, over winter break (NOT BEFORE), I made a
study schedule for the rest of the year. It involved assigning a subject per week
(Cardio, Immuno, etc) and doing some light review of that subject (First Aid, maybe
some UWorld) during that week and then my trusty study group and I reviewed that
subject on Friday together. So that was a really good way to do some light reviewing
