I just got this email (below). For those of you who have been through/are going through M3 and beyond, would you recommend this?

I bought FC late first year I think, but wasn't motivated enough to keep up with it. This past semester of M2, I've found brosencephalon's Anki deck very useful. I'm scrambling enough for Step I that I think I would make more of an effort to keep up with FC for Step II if it was advisable?

Thanks for any opinions.

Good luck! I paid for it this year but between the question books, Uworld, uptodate random readings, blueprints/case files, and clinical hours, I didn't keep up with it.

I found it very difficult to go through UWorld alone while doing clerkships.. Personally, I wouldn't recommend dividing up your time between several resources since they have different styles and formatting. But I guess you can try whatever worked for Step 1.
