So I am taking the psyc boards in May and want to start readiing a bit now since I'm on a light rotation. I have searched the forum and read the sticky on the written boards and there are a few book recommendations but how do you decide which to go with. I mean is it like usmleI where everyone was glued to their First Aid book memorizing it so should I pick one book and just do that and one solid question book? Or get those beat the boards binders and just use that? and what about this kaufman course that i keep hearing about? It's kind of a big decision since for usmle I i took the kaplan course with live lectures, which i hated, and I know i would've done much better just memorizing first aid like everyone else seemed to do.
I've asked people in my residency program who have taken it already and everyone used something different it seems. One person just did questions from Focus; someone else studied from some series of books from a drug rep (i have no clue what this is). So i am a bit confused which to go with, and somewhat worried as I am not the best test taker.
thanx!
