How does UCLA prepare you for the boards?

1. Does UCLA have a test bank with released board exams for the students? (I heard some schools do but I haven't heard anything about it at UCLA)
2. Are there study groups or reviews held by professors? or students?
3. When do UCLA students usually take the boards part 1 & 2?
4. If you're first year student at UCLA right now, do you think you're getting a good preparation for the boards with the changes in the curriculum? (I'm afraid whether what they got rid of from the curriculum is crucial to the boards cause it seems like they deleted a lot of classes from the curriculum)

Any other input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

1. Yes, I wouldn't ask about it though.
2. No, but you get together with others to study.
3. After second year and during fourth year, respectively.
4. Ask a first year. 😀
