I have 2 more weeks to go-and I would like to know what is better:
to answer as many questions as possible from q bank?
or review the first aid?
please share your thoughts

Depends on what you have done so far

What have you read? What practice questions have you done?

Hi Thanks for your reply
I did 25% of Kaplan Questions
Red Kaplan Once also First Aid, H/Y neuro, MMRS and listen to Goljan lectures once
my main question is, what is better worth doing, Read FA and try to memorize as much as possible or Finish all the Questions on Qbank? please advice

 

[lord_jeebus]

I'm no expert, but I think that in 2 weeks you should be able to go through FA at least once (if not more) as well as do many Qbank questions.

However, if you feel like there are gaps in your knowledge base, I would recommend to address those areas by studying FA or whatever... however, if you feel like you have learned as much as you can and just need to fine tune your knowledge and test your self, I would do QBank... I think you should probably do full length some time soon....

I'd break it down about 50-50.

If you do not think you can complete the remainder of QBank in 6-7 days, I would suggest cutting back on the time you spend reading the answer explanations of questions you get right (obviously if you get one wrong you should know why) so that you can do more total questions.

FA is much more high yield. You can get through it almost twice in 2 weeks. I think you'll get more out of it that way. Focus on the minutia stuff that needs to be memorized like pharm, statistics, and biochem.
