kinda in the same boat as you

depends on what you've used in the past..if your a fan FA...go over all of it in these last three days...sit down and glance over every page...maybe do an NBME but at this point i don't know about how useful questions are

definitely go over

biochemistry
pharmacology
the rapid review section in the back

also, use the WEBPATH web page or the photos in the back of FA and definitely go over them...so many questions involve photos and you ant stuff like that to be fresh in your mind

honestly it depends on how much time you want to put in...if i were you I'd also listen to weak spots on Goljan at 1.5x speed but maybe that's going overboard because FA will be taking up much of your time

hope this helps...the night before get rid of your books at around 8 ( i don't ascribe to the don't study on the last day philosophy) and make sure you get solid sleep...get some benadryl if necessary

I'm making a list of all the things I'm going to review the day before my exam. These are things I'm having trouble memorizing and would want to have in my short-term memory. So far these include:
- skim all pharm drugs in first aid (just the names and their class and use)
- Lysosomal storage diseases, glycogen disorders
- Physiology, Pharm, and behavioral equations
- Leukemias and Lymphomas (especially the different markers for each type)
- some of the tables in RR Path

AND some neuro stuff, like one last view of brainstem pics and the syndromes resulting from artery occlusions etc.

3-4 days prior, I would also wanna finish off some incorrect marked qs on UW.

Good luck man, you are almost done! 👍

Pictures.

FA, with emphasis on easily forgetable stuff in biochem/micro... ie. lysosomal storage dz.

Blue Margins Goljan.

Goljan 100 page notes
FA images + Goljan images from the lectures
Immuno - CD markers have always been short-term memory items for me

 

[VoiceofReason]

metachromatic leukodystrophy, baby

 

[metalrex]

Oh yeah! Did I forget to mention that ominous FA table on viruses?!!!

Know those lil tykes well.

 

[mossyfiber12]

thanks guys! I have boiled it down to schematics, the whole neuro section, drugs, and pics on the back! almost there...

How long, may I ask, do these Goljan 100 take to get through? I imagine they are saturated with good stuff... but are we talking a whole day, or a few hours?
I feel like at this point I am going through FA but I keep telling myself, "I already know this... why am I doing this?" So I wanna try and hit something a bit more "high yield" if you will.

Thanks!

Sitting on 4 days out myself... the last 3 days have been thoroughly unproductive and now I feel like crap haha...
