Can anyone recommend resources to prepare for the neurology shelf exam?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I also thought pretest was good. We only had 2 weeks of neuro and had to take the shelf, and I read some of first aid for step 2 and did most of the neuro pretest. What I was shocked at was how little CNS stuff there was. It was mostly peripheral nervous, vascular, and headache questions.
can anyone post about what his/her raw score correlated to in terms of national percentile? thanks
Are you sure the raw score is 70 SD 8? I received a raw score of 97.5, does this mean that I scored 3.5 SD above the mean?

i used case files and pretest scored a 85 raw. My clerkship director said that corresponds to a 92nd %ile...
Not the same. I looked at both before buying one in the store, and Neuroscience is more like your first year course. Neurology is the one you need.Does anyone know if Case Files: Neuroscience is the new version of Case Files: Neurology?

I only ask because nearly every case files book came out with a newer version recently except neurology.

naw we do it too. I plan to go at it with Blueprints, Case Files and Pretest. Hopefully this strategy will pan out. I hear it was a mother of a test. We only need to get above 5%tile to "pass" the shelf. I don't know what that corresponds to in terms of a raw score...
If not all the neuro shelf q's are about neuro, then what else do the NBME ask about?
Are there any IM, or Psych q's?
