Is this possible? I'm starting and working full time for a year. Just finished my basic sciences at a US medical school. Have almost finished going through FA using the DIT lectures. Need to start doing questions soon.
 
It depends on how much time you have. If you have a full year then yes you should be able to. However if you're taking it in like 2 months, then use those 2 months as full dedicated study time.
 
If you can focus and not do anything else but work and study that's totally fine. But you start forgetting information and the little details if you are not devoting enough time to review. So if you know you are not working weekends, then u need to dedicate that time to studying ONLY. hope that helps
