Step 3, studying early

[kaywalker]

Hello SDN

I'm writing my step 3 in early July. I've heard of people say that they only prepared 2-4 weeks for it. But I'd like to get a head start for a few reasons. If I wanted to study 30-60 minutes per day from now what would be something that is high yield and not as easy to forget? Read first aid? Master the boards? Start UWORLD? Or should I just focus on something else and come back to this later?

Some background:
4th year Psychiatry resident in Canada. Haven't practiced the medical side of things in a while. Passed step 1 and step 2 first try, with a small-moderate margin above passing point.

Thanks!
