Hello, just wanted to see if I could get some advice on this study schedule I made for Step 1. Exam date is June 29th. I am shooting for 240+, ideally 250 so as to keep all options available for residency.

I am planning on using Goljan Audio, Goljan Rapid Review (RR), First Aid 2012 (Topics/book pages below without accompanying book key), High Yield Neuroscience (NY Neuro), High Yield Behavioral Science (HY BS), UWorld Q bank (number is questions done in either 1, 2, or 3 tests, number in parentheses is a total questions done count)

Tried to make it reasonable to achieve while being very through, yet avoiding burnout (hopefully). Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated!

.STEP 1 EXAM.












Members don't see this ad.
 
I am using similar study schedule like your's. My exam is on may 16th, i am also aiming for 250+ lol. So far i have taken nbme 6, 7 and will take nbme 13 week before exam.

Good luck :luck:
 
My plan is also pretty similar, except that I'm using Pathoma instead of RR (to save some time) and using the extra time to do the DIT course. I also had a couple of extra weeks in total.
