Took step 2 CK a little bit ago and I can already feel my knowledge base eroding away. I get pimp questions wrong that I know I used to know the answers to, and I'm slower to think through a lot of clinical scenarios. It's just embarassing. I've always been a binge and purge type learner, which means my foundation hasn't been great to begin with but I somehow made it to the end of med school.
But seeing as I'm almost done, I don't want to just forget everything I've learned as I coast for the rest of the year. I want to be sort of prepared by the time I start residency, I really don't want to be hurting or killing patients.
Should I download anki decks for Step 3? Watch onlinemeded or some other type of videos? Do amboss? What can I do to not become the idiot I was at the beginning of medical school?
P.S.
Yes, I know I should be learning from patients or on rotations, but in my experience that's very self-directed and disorganized. I'd prefer a more organized approach if possible.
