[cantthinkofname]

For those who have taken the Ob/Gyn shelf- what did you use to study? I dont know where to start!

im using blueprints to study and am thinking about purchasing usmleworld for questions. has anyone used UW as practice questions?

I second blueprints--very comprehensive review. Also, ask your clerkship director about access to uWISE--it's a free Qbank on the ACOG website. I'm almost certain some of the questions on the shelf were on there...

Blueprints and Case Files...all you need.

Fixed it for you.

UWise questions are the best, but only if your school subscribes to them for you. I think if you buy your own subscription it's really expensive.

Good point. Thanks for clarifying.

People at my school have said that the Kaplan Notes set coupled with Uwise is enough to do well. Apparently the questions on the CD in the Beckham ob/gyn book are also good.

Yeah I just heard this as well. Apparently the shelf is based on the Beckham text, as are the UWise questions.

I think the shelf is based on the ACOG ms3 recommendations, upon which the Beckman's book is structured.
