For people who got above 30, did you mainly rely on test prep books such as ExamKracker and Kaplan? Or, did you mainly use your school science books and notes + lectures for bio, chem, orgo and physics?
I am starting to study and I don't think I remember too much about classes that i took last year. should i just go ahead with test prep review books or should i read over notes and school books before going over review books?
And what review book are avaiable from EK? I just bought Examkracker subject books (not Question books) to review teh material first. I am also thinking about home study. I read over EK home study schedule but i wasn't sure what books the schedule was referring to. Please give me feedbacks + comments as to how I should study and what to start with and what prep books are good. Thank you in advance.
