Just wondering how some of you went about studying for the OB/GYN shelf (mini-board). I hear it is one of the more difficult ones. Which books did you find useful? Did you do more reading of text, or more practice questions? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I used blueprints and nothing else plus the clinical experience you get. I did very well.

1 word. BLUEPRINTS. Know that book top to bottom, study it 3 times, 4 times, or however many times you need to memorize every sentence of it. You need that and nothing else, other than what you see on the wards. In my experience the ob shelf is actually easier than some of the other shelf.
