So here's my dilemna, I currently have all of TPR material, TBR physics/ochem/chem and EK of everything.

I'm one of those stupid ***** who kept on reading about how good this XX book was and switched over to it. So here's my dilemma, I'm taking the test in April 17 and I've actually finished all of the content review for physics and chem and bio pretty much from the EK books. However, upon obtaining the TBR books, I started all over and am progressing rather slowly through them and I am still only in my initial stages of the TBR books.

Should I spend the time to go through the TBR books for physics chem and ochem or should I just stick with the EK books for content and master em?

I will say for reference that I suck nuts at physical sciences, I believe I'm barely in the range of 8-9. With that being said, I also did not do problems after I had gone over the concepts from the chapter but anyways,

What would you guys recommend?

Thanks guys,

yours truly, mr. stupid
 
This is exact mistake I made when studying for January.
Do not do this. Use your TBR books to brush up on weak areas, but DO NOT get bogged down thinking you have to cover it all again.

Honestly, work on the passages in TBR, that will help you. But do not waste time reading the chapters again. Emphasize practice passages more than simply reviewing the material.

Also, dude, don't call yourself Mr. Stupid - the fact that you're even at this stage preparing so far in advance for an exam shows you're committed and intelligent.
 
Thanks very much man. I had also read your post saying where you had done the same so I totally concurred.

It's really reassuring to have someone who did the same thing as me to tell me to not do this. Means alot!
 
I have a question. I am doing my content review from Kaplan, but ordered the whole BR set. How do you guys suggest I approach the BR set? Should I re-read the books or just use them for questions?
