Hello all,
I will be starting at a D.O school with plans to have a competitive USMLE score. I have been advised by other 3rd/4th year students that my school's curriculum (like many others) doesn't prepare us very well for USMLEs and we must be more responsible for our own learning. More over, we only 5 weeks to study for Steps 1 unlike some other medical schools who get more time.
My mentor student recommend that I get a copy of USMLE First aid to make sure that the stuff we are assigned in school matches the First-Aid/High yield topics that appear on USMLE and prioritize the studying that way!
I see there is USMLE FIRST AID STEP1 but also USLME Basic Sciences General Principal and USMLE Basic Sciences Organ Systems
Which book should I get ESPECIALLY to self-study/ensure that I'm learning all relevant things ?
Your thoughts and advice are appreciated!
