OB/GYN weak area

I'm taking CK in just over 2 weeks and based on NBME assessments, am significantly weakest in OB/GYN -- specifically "Pregnancy, Childbirth, Puerperium." It was my first rotation of 3rd year and I didn't really know how to study for it.

My study materials:
-UW + incorrects (already went through it once during 3rd year)
-Step 2 Secrets (haven't started yet)
-MTB3 OB & GYN (did not improve my performance)
-Started Case Files OB today

Is there anything else I should be doing to quickly tune up my OB knowledge before the big day? I'm worried that it could hold me back from my score goal. Thanks!

I'd drop case files.

Did you ever have access to the uwise question bank? If you spent a half of day on your weak areas and did those questions and took notes I'd bet your score would go up.

I remember they were extremely similar the nbme shelf exam questions....hence they are a probably a quality qbank for step 2 if you are bad at OB.

Elmar Sakala is my homeboy for OBGYN. He has a BRS book with questions after each subject chapter so you can read up on your weak areas. Alternatively, he has a Kaplan book too but it doesn't have questions after each chapter.

For a brief review of the topics you may be weak in, you can check out the MEO videos:

MTB 3 for reading, UWise if you want more questions.

No more access to uwise, unfortunately. Thinking about doing the Kaplan Step2 Qbook questions and reading relevant sections of Kaplan Lecture Notes and MTB3 again
