Rating:  - Kaplan Q bank+ this book =all you need to pass and do well
I think the key to studying for the Step 1 is to restrict your studying materials. It's better to know everything in one book (THIS BOOK) than some of 5-6 books. So many questions from my USMLE came straight from this book that if you studied this and memorized every syllable, you will pass and pass well!

This was pretty much all I used and I made a 225/94.

Helpfull.
Rating: - Good for more than just the boards
First Aid has helped me in tests throughout the year. I actually wish I had had it last year, so that when the time comes to study for the boards, I'd be extremely familiar with the book. That said, the book is systems based, and the curriculum at my school is subject-based, so I'm considering getting an older edition of the First Aid for the biochemistry, anatomy, embryology, and histology sections. The mnemonics are great, and since I'm a visual learner, I really like the diagrams and pictures, ... Read More
