Hey guys,
trying to put my 4th yr schedule together and was torn about when to stick neuro. do i really need to take neuro (and my last EVER shelf) before i take step 2 CK? or is it possible just to study from firstaid/crush and do fine?
thanks,
streetdoc
 
I think the exam has very little to do with a focused but comprehensive neuro exam and much more to do with the common sensical things involving medicine & patient interaction that the third year will teach you.

Don't worry about not having Neuro. I'm sure you'll do extremely well without it.
 
Took Step 2 CK AND CS months before Neuro and did just fine. Don't worry about Neuro you'll do fine without it.
