Hi guys... I'm kind of freaking out trying to figure out which resources to use.

I think I'm going to do FA + Uworld + USMLErx + Pathoma...

I have DIT and have done a couple videos... but it is taking me FOREVER. And I find myself just writing everything down. Should I continue doing this or should I focus more on reading FA and doing qbanks.

Also is FA enough for biochem? Should I read an outside book? If so, which one would you recommend. Thank you very much!!!
 
When is your exam? Are you at an offshore school?

Try using USMLErx + FA + Pathoma alongside your classes for now. As long as you're learning and making progress, its a good sign. Then save Uworld for when you are closer to your test

I haven't heard many good things about DIT, it might be more of an efficient use of your time to just ditch it and work through Pathoma, Qbanks, and USMLErx.

As for biochem, most people who have taken the exam say FA + Uworld questions have been enough, or they might throw in some Lippincott to look up something.
 
My exam is in June. I am not at an off-shore school. I have class until May though...

Yea I think if I do DIT I might do it later. It is really overwhelming me right now... I'm not saying it's bad... I think, as they say, you should review before you dive into it. So maybe that's my problem.

Thank you so much for your response!!!!
