I started this today with 5 wks to go (June 10th), but am finding it to take me way to long. I spend over 6 hrs on ch 11. I have the audio, the transcripts, and the RR book. I have just been reading the transcripts and writing notes into RR. Any advice on how I can speed this up....I think it is going to be detrimental otherwise. Thanks

Sure. Stop screwing around with the transcripts or annotation. That's one of the densest books in medical education. Just read it. That's more than enough.

Reading that book word for word is really unnecessary, and kind of crazy since it's all bullets. I listened to all the audio while having the book open to reference for anything that sounds unclear. If you can speed up the audio to 2x or faster this makes it go even quicker. If you still want to do more, read all the high yield bullets for sections as you're doing that. That + FA is more than enough.

If you're really running out of time, tables + bullet points + following along with the audio.

Otherwise just read it first then listen to the audio, then make a final pass through the tables & bullet points.

As far as I know they are. If it's what papi considers to be the take home message then it's probably important.

If you learned the info during the classes then the bullet points are more than enough. If you're not 100% sure what they are trying to feed you in each section (which is bare bones to jog memory and differentiate similar items), then take more time before you take the step because you are not ready.

OR if you really want to take it, start doing all questions and refer to RR only when you need to understand why an answer is right/wrong.
