NBME Anatomy Shelf?

[usctrojans24]

What resources did everyone use to study for the shelf other than BRS questions. Any Anki decks or other resources people recommend?

I'm in the same boat, taking it in a couple days. I've been told to look at the "100 concepts of anatomy" pdf (floating around reddit somewhere, there's a dorian anki deck for it too) and that there's ~8 brachial plexus questions and heavy on abdomen.

Interested in how you approached it. We were told this semester that now our professors can customize the NBME shelf and so mine will include histo, anatomy, neuroanatomy, and embryology. I really am unsure how to even approach this now without going over every powerpoint from this semester in two weeks.

Took it for a distinction program at my school last semester, so it's been a little while.

I would say at least 75% was directly covered by the 100 concepts of anatomy PDF (I used someone's Anki deck version that had different regions separated by tags). Very few were origin/insertion or structural minutiae; primarily clinical correlates.

+1 to abdomen emphasis.

For the standarized one, what i wish i did was just read the 100 concepts pdf again and again. what i did do is read 1 chapter of essential clinical anatomy every night and then the last night try to read the pdf and brs questions. I was a couple points below the US average, so take with a grain of salt.
