for LE anatomy? no, study your class notes

for upper anatomy - there is so little on there that FA is fine.

There was a lot of GA on my exam, and you don't know which will be dropped/counted. If I had to restudy, I would recommend using GA class notes.

I feel like a necromancer for resurrecting this thread, but maybe some of the P2/P3's can answer this question:

Does the anatomy on the APMLE part 1 exam consist mostly of clinically relevant anatomy or are you actually tested on insertions/origins/landmarks just like in Gross Anatomy class?

My initial impression is that only for LEA is the latter true. Is this correct?

look at lower limb notes a week before the test to review - at least that's how we did it at DMU since we finished the course in mid-March.
