I'm a little confused on the main book to use for Step 2 (if there is one!). On SDN I keep seeing either FA, MTB, or Stepup2Medicine. Would anybody mind help with explaining which one is best? Or if theyre all good, how to use them? I'd like to read the pertinent sections within different rotation similar to what I did with FA/RR in first 2 years. Thanks!

I used First Aid Step 2CK. I found it to be particularly wanting.
After a while, I perused Step Up. The Step Up to Step 2 is woefully lacking as well
However, perusing the Step Up to Medicine and Surgery, I found those sources to appear to be very thorough.
Bottom line, choose any review text you like. The key is doing questions questions questions and remembering the "uncommon aspects of common diseases" you see on the wards
