So I'm just about to start M2 in a traditional curriculum (mirco, pharm, path), and I wanted to get everyone's opinion about my plans of trying to make it a successful year.

First semester is composed of all 3 subjects, with micro ending in November, at which time we will begin organ systems for path. My plan is as follows:

Mirco: Watch sketchy videos and class lecture
Pharm: Sketchy pharm videos with class lecture
Path: Pathoma videos night before that days lecture+read from Golijan/Robbins (have heard great things about both, need to determine which one I'll prefer).

I also have purchased Kaplan Qbank to get me through the first semester, with plans of switching and purchasing Uworld at the end of winter break. On Sunday's I would go through the week's notes and do some slight annotating in First Aid (hopefully while watching a football game). I'll also be sprinkling in some Board and Beyond videos for clarification on the tougher subjects (most of the current M3's said they wish they had the videos all year).

Would it be possible to do all of this during M2? Or would I be biting off more than I can chew?

Who knows? You'll have to figure that out as you go along. Focus on coursework first and focus on board review materials to help structure material and as you have time.
