I am currently trying to decide which route should I go with taking step 2 and if this seems like a valid plan to you guys:
Background info:
1.)I did BBC for step 1 alone with maybe 400 combank questions and made >500 on the exam(I didn't reach my goal of 550 to give you an ideal of what I made)
2.)I have currently made surgery and pediatric comat scores that are pretty high( and i am still using my OMM material from BBC) and do those relate to comlex 2?
3.)My final core rotation for third year is IM(its 2 months long and we have an OMM COMAT and IM COMAT for that rotation) which ends mid. Jan
4.)I plan on studying for step 2 during my dermatology rotation(very light hours) in mid January (which is four weeks) and taking step 2 during my first week of FM(like the Friday of the first week or the Monday of the second week.)

My questions are:
1.)Would I be able to complete a study program in basically 4 weeks(maybe five)
2.)Would anyone recommend using DIT instead of BBC?(I dislike First Aid too which might be a problem....) and my goal is to either maintain my current score or make higher(nothing crazy but 550 and up would be nice)

All help appreciated and I know this seems like a ramble but typing this on my Iphone and trying to take care of my kiddo at the same time.
