Hi, I will be taking Step 1 on June 6th, 2011. I will utilizing primarily First Aid, UWorld, and Rapid Review Pathology 3rd Edition Goljan. During the last 2 weeks prior to the exam, I will be using Doctors in Training. My hope is to go into orthopedics, so obviously I need a killer Step 1 score amongst other things.

-Are the following study materials I mentioned adequate enough?

-How many times is it recommended to go through FA before the exam?

-I plan on studying somewhat lightly during my spring semester, but I will go into full-time studying mode starting on April 26th, which gives me about 6 weeks to study hard for Step 1. Is that enough time?

-What practice tests are recommended besides the UWorld questions? I feel that the more practice tests I do, the more efficient I will become at answering the questions.

-When should I take the practice tests to maximize my Step 1 score? I'm assuming I'll have one full-length practice exam as well as 2-4 half length practice exams.

I would prefer only those who have taken Step 1 to help me out, especially those who rocked Step 1. Thanks!!!!
