How to attack pharm over the next 10 weeks

[HybridEarth]

Hi guys,

Wrapping up my last month of classes then I have 6 weeks of dedicated. I've noticed that my weak spot is pharm, even though I scored extremely well on exams in school. What is the most efficient way of me re-learning/retaining pharm over the next 10 weeks?

If you are scoring extremely well on your pharm exams in school then why do you think you are weak in pharm?

Anyway... I would recommend covering the pharm basics in FA + Boards & Beyond. The basic stuff (pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, calculations) is actually very high yield. I'm glad that I went through this because I had forgotten a lot of it since my pharm course.

For systems, FA was sufficient for me. Know the high yield side effects/complications. Know some general management (asthma, MI/PE).

Practice questions are probably most important at this stage - the UWorld pharm questions are great so definitely do those.

Good luck!
