Uworld
Step 2 Secrets
Step Up to Medicine
FA for non-medicine subjects (ob/gyn, peds, surgery, psych)

Good plan?

Are you taking COMLEX or USMLE?

SU2M may be a bit much unless you feel week in medicine subjects. You may be able to get away with Step Up to Step 2, which is considerably thinner.

I have heard good things about secrets, even though I have not personally used it.

I thought Step Up to Step 2 had a good review of non-medicine subjects also.

Add a qbank. Uworld is essential. SUTM may be too much. FA does a pretty good job on its own.

Per my usual

First Aid or Step Up Step 2

AND

Uworld​

get you a 230 (I have used this prep with 15 average to low medical students at an average medical school who got the average on Step 2). People now suggest MTB as an equivalent to FA or SU, but I have not personally used it. The way you get the score higher is by adding. Adding Secrets, Adding the Other (whichever of FA or SU you didnt do), Adding Kaplan's Course.

Do NOT use crush except to review the weekend before you start studying. All it does is remind you of the topics you need to cover, it wont get you points.

Im taking USMLE. So you think I should ditch SUTM and go with either SUTS2 or FA? I'll definitely gonna do uworld as my qbank (im planning on doing uworld twice). Im also doing secrets cause I feel like it's be easy book that I can read over and over again multiple times.

Yeah I would use SUTS2 or FA instead of STUM.

SUTS2 or FA + UWorld + Secrets sounds like a good plan.
