OME advises at least 8 weeks. 12 would be safer and they have a downloadable schedule for that. 12 weeks also allows you to do more questions than just their qbank. I wouldn’t get hung up on the flash cards, I didn’t find them terribly special. Just a good way to solidify the knowledge 48 hours after watching the video. I wouldn’t really go through them more than that.

Not as well as the quicktables will, especially if you write the algorithms into it. I used sticky notes when there wasn't enough white space for the algorithms. Trust in their process. It works. I think it is better if you do it throughout third year though.

flash cards are nothing great but take barely any time to go over and I do find they allow you re-infornce some quick 'high' yield pearls that you forget soon after watching videos especially for more benign conditions, so definitely worth it. Ex/// treatment of sterile u/a prostatitis = NSAIDs, totally forgot about it after the uro vids but came back 2 days later and now I know if I come across a Q about tender prostate but u/a sterile I'll get that extra point. Whereas I'd otherwise be tripping over why the u/a is negative and thinking what to do cause I'd be looking for the ab to treat prostatitis
