Another "What To Cut Out" Thread

Okay, test in three weeks (the 18th of june), I finish my main subject reviewing next monday (path, phys, pharm, biochem, micro, immuno, etc done), havent touched anatomy/embryo/histo beyond first aid - USMLE World average - 63 (finished). Any suggestiosn for the last 3 weeks? I'm around 60 percent done Qbank, finished the Robbins book, I'll prob go through World again to make sure I'm crushing those.... In terms of study...

Now, here are my options:
HY Cell and molec
HY Embryo
HY Anatomy
HY Histo

Everyone in the other thread suggested dropping the embryo - so that's out, what about the anatomy - which sections should I keep (I'll keep upper and lower limb at the least) - and I was thinking about reading through all the clinical correllates/pictures in the HY anatomy - any ideas on that? About the cell and molecular - I havent really any cell and molecular I couldnt answer from biochem/pharm/other subjects, so I kinda figured I'd drop that.
The histo seems to up in the air - the HY histo really seems to be very integrative and has lots of pictures (which I like).

Any and all opinions are super super appreciated. Thanks.

It was suggested to me by upperclassmen who did well to forego HY Anatomy/Embryology entirely in favor of question banks and First Aid. I'm simply taking short notes from those questions I miss in QBank/UW/UsmleRx.

As for Histology and Cell Bio, I'm tempted to do the same. I may review these subjects for a day a couple of weeks down the road if I show up weak in them on an NBME.

Good Luck!!

I'd really concentrate on improving your anatomy by reviewing upper and lower limb like you said above and go through as many images in HY anatomy as you can stomach.
Cell and Molecular I would definetly drop.
Embryo- I would hit up first aid
Histology is so low yield and that HY book is pretty long, if you are running really low on time I would just drop it, since you've already looked at it once.
