How to handle UWorld and content review during dedicated study

1) Content review by system, UWorld by system
2) Content review by system, UWorld random
3) Content review first two weeks, Uworld + brushing up on content last 3 weeks (21 days, so ~100Qs a day seems reasonable)

I am leaning towards #2. That way, I will get brush up on content from many systems while doing questions, but still have time to focus and nail down content from one system.

No opinions?

I'm in the same position as you and going with #2

My dedicated time starts soon. That's my plan. A few hours of Firecracker in the morning, an organ system till lunch, then 3-4 blocks of UW with annotations into FA. Seems like the best bet. Then a round of cover to cover after UW is done, then redo the wrong/flagged.

If using UW as a study rool rather than assessment tool, wouldnt it be better to go through systems? Like learn a system and do questions on that system.

i decided to do uworld during the year and did it by systems along with my coursework!

hopefully that will save me time reviewing as well, i won't have to go through it as meticulously since i annotated first aid with most of the qbank (i missed over some questions, i got really lazy some days and didn't annotate a few blocks)
