Hey guys, incoming MS1 here.
I hear so many people swear by third-party resources during the preclinical years and was wondering if these are essential to do well in classes. With STEP 1 going pass/fail, I don't just want to focus on the high-yield content which may have been more useful in years past. Also, I would like to do well on my school's in-house exams.
That being said, I'm not a huge fan of watching videos and would rather spend my time actively learning content via flashcards or practice questions. If I watch my school's lecture, do you think that it is mandatory that I view the same content as presented by a third-party source, or is the lecture sufficient?
I'm just trying to gauge if re-seeing the material as presented by someone else is worth the time and $$$, or if I should just stick to third-party Q-banks to solidify the material I learned my school's lecture.
Thanks for any guidance you can provide!
