I have 2 weeks until the exam and I'm finding it difficult to get through reading Goljan Rapid Review along with my final pass on FA and UWorld Q's. Would it be a better use of time to just read the bold text on the sides or read the audio transcripts instead? I've already listened to the audio once and have read some of Goljan along with my classes earlier this year. If it helps any I'm aiming for a 240+

Please help!

Thanks!! =)

If you're just powering though? Go audio transcripts. They're the 40-page version right? My plan though, within the 2 week window, is going to be prioritizing Q-bank, Jotting down the subjects I don't know stone-cold and looking them up in FA, using a resource like RR to fill in the minutiae, and then using a Q-book or Qbank of some sort to practice similar questions (i.e if I got a question wrong on Takayasu's, I'd go find all the questions in Qbank on Takayasu's I could to make sure I had all aspects of it down. Maybe a little overambitious, but I feel like it'd be more efficient than going over things you're pretty sure you know...

No, audio transcript is 125 page pdf. I just finished reading it. It took me 2 days to read. I was also annotating relevant information into FA. I think it is a good review. I would say go through it if you can. I would say up to page 84ish (thats where respiratory starts) are good. Rest of the audio/transcript seemed rushed. So may be you can just read the 1st 84 pages or so because they include physio, biochem, heme and cardio.
