I have the old FA 2011 (yes '11) and i just purchased 2015. to be honest, there really don't seem to be that many 'clutch' differences between any of these FA's and the ones inbetween. some pics, some pneumonics, etc are added, but is it really WORTH IT? Will it really make a difference between 220 and 240? or is it more 220-225? after putting all this work into the old FA by adding pathoma and uworld notes into it, i just don't feel like its worth it to go through fa2015...except maybe for dit purposes.
thoughts?
 
FA11 vs FA15 might be the difference between a 220/240 or a 220/225. An extra $50 in your pocket definitely won't help you score higher though.

I think he already purchased it.
There are subtle differences which you may not notice on a first read.
However, FA is evolving every year with the test.
So, yes it is worth it.

Thanks for pointing that out. I completely misread the op.

Op I still think it's worth it. However I have looked at FA14 and FA15 and I think there are significant additions. I imagine there are even more compared to FA11. Yes it's mostly minutiae rather than big concepts, but the money is in knowing a few things here and there that most people don't.
 
yes i already bought the book...the 35 dollars isn't the issue lol...the issue was all the sweat and tears i put into making notes into FA2011. With these responses, the way I'm planning to go about it is to stick to FA2011 since all my notes are in it, and open FA2015 when i do DIT videos.

thank you all for your responses.
 
I had the majority of my Uworld notes in FA 2012 (the worst edition ever). Then when I got Fa 2014, I just had both 12 and 14 open and followed it through. It will take more time, but it's better to follow and use the notes you made since they probably took a lot of time making it. All the best!
