I've been on summer break for the last 5 weeks. In this time I've managed to travel, do some cooking, get outdoors, and generally live like a normal human being. On the flip side, I've done maybe a combined 30 minutes of review/studying. I killed myself with the studying first year, and it paid off, but I just feel like I need this break.
For what it's worth, we started systems early at my school, so first year material IS going to be important for step 1.
Am I going to be starting second year in a big hole having taken the entire summer off? Do people who score well on boards do this? I know I'm probably being neurotic (which is a problem in and of itself), but any feedback from those in a similar position or maybe a year or so ahead of me would be awesome.
