I find that most of the answers from step 2 practice questions are found in my step 1 review notes. When reading USMLE step 2 books I find that most of the material was already covered in step 1. It seems to me that a significant part of the challenge of studying for step2 is remembering step1 material. I don't know about you, but I find it a lot easier, faster and more memorable to study notes that I've already mastered once, then reading similar material in a different book/format.
I know step 1 material is not complete for step 2 (more treatments and managements), but has anyone studied for step 2 USMLE or COMLEX by reviewing step 1 material (maybe minus the mechanism/biochem) and filling in the gaps with a step 2 review book/questions (and get a high score)?
