Here is the deal: Ive failed Step 1 twice. Ive done Qbank basically twice also. For this third time, I have no idea of what to use question-wise. Im pretty desperate (as u can tell). This third time around, I am using Goljan notes, RR Pharm, Kaplan Phys, RR Biochem and First Aid for everything else. I have about 7 weeks to study. I was really close to passing the last time, but I am paranoid about doing worse this time around. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it.

How exactly did you feel about taking the exam the last time? Did you feel like you did ok, or did you feel like you failed? I'm not trying to psychoanalyze you or anything, but it seems that you've already done a lot of studying and it's not helping. Do you get test anxiety or anything like that?


But to address your question, have you looked through BRS Pathology or BRS Physiology yet? A great majority of the exam is pathophysiology, so if you understand the BRS books plus First Aid, you'll probably be able to pass the exam. Put another way, it might help to focus your studies on Pathophys, Micro and Pharm, and just forget about the other subjects.
