Hello,

I have my family med shelf coming up in 3 weeks. This is my final M3 clerkship. I got case files, and think its a great book, but noticed its primarily stuff from throughout the year. I am thinking instead of this, I will read prescription for the boards USMLE Step II and do the lange USMLE Step II practice exams book. that way I will be prepared in advance for studying for my step II exam as well. Do you think this is okay? Has anyone else tried this strategy in preparation for the family shelf?
 
One thing I learned is take the title of those books seriously. I futzed up step 2 by using a non step 2 book...
