USMLE World alone in enough and simply superb. I went through First Aid too but difficult to beat USMLE World.

For Step 2 Clinical Skills?

First Aid

Yeah, I was thinking about this. FA for about 3-4 days was my plan. I am hoping this is about right. Many people say not to study but I don't really work that way. This short of a time even scares me.

Bigfrank and some of the other big guns...what did you use?

Yup I was refering to Step 2 CS when I mentioned USMLE World.....I found the FA too crammed with info..USMLE World was much better organized, easier to read and much more reader friendly.

For the CS? This seems a bit strange.

Seems strange to me too. I can see CK but not CS.

Hey Pox in a box...if you go to this website http://www.usmleworld.com/ to your left you can see an icon which says Step 2 CS and if you click on it it will provide you with all info that you need. Has physical examination videos, sample cases and as well as about 40 cases which you can practice..about 70 cases overall.
About 15 of my friends used it and everybody cleared the CS without any hitch. I just gave my Step 2 CS in April and none of my cases were out of this USMLE world. It is worth every penny invested.

To expand on my last post, FA for 2 days is plenty if you are a "good" med student and know your stuff. My school and I'm sure many others throw OSCEs at you now. That was really all you need... to be prepared how to do it.

hey:
is anyone planning on just not studying for Step 2 CS at all? We've been doing OSCEs at my school and I'm getting the feeling that CS isn't tough to pass....
anyone out there heard this as well?

I used FA for a few nights beforehand. Just do the cases in back, no problem.
