I am a European student planning to take step 1 in August or September. I haven't started studying yet but I have First Aid 2005. Do I need the 2006 version? I've also heard good things about Step Up. I have the 2000 version, should I get the new one? I found this book on the Internet: Step-up to the Bedside: AND Step-up: A High-yield Systems-based Review for the USMLE Step 1. Is that another Step Up book or "the one"?
Do I need a high yield book for cell biology?
I have the 2nd edition of both BRS path and physio, do I need the newer ones? I know they are really important.
I got the rapid review for gross and developmental anatomy and was thinking about using it for anatomy and embryo review, is it any good? I am not sure of how to study anatomy, reading the whole book won't have me remembering much, do people just use anatomy books as a supplement to FA?
Did anyone use pharm flash cards?
Since it's been a while since I studied pre-clinical subject (I'm in my 5th year in a 5.5 year European style school) I did a NBME test to see where I stand before I start studying. I got just above 300 which is VERY much below passing step 1. I know I have 5 months to study now, but during 4 of those I will be going to school/working. I need to score above average since I am an IMG, do I have enough time?
