Hi,
I am an IMG. Planning to take step 1 next year. I really need your advice on how to start my preparation.
I am planning to go through Kaplan Videos and Kaplan Lecture Notes and various question banks after that.

Will that be enough ?

The best answer to the question (is that enough) is by doing assessment tests such as NBME or UWSA and see if you are getting the score you want.

Once you reach the predicted score you want then that's enough.

Thanx a lot... 1 more help.
I am about to buy Kaplan lecture notes. Which one I should prefer 2012 new edition or the 2010 edition ?

 

[Sabio]

I don't know, I usually prefer the newest edition but many members have discussed this issue in the forums, search for those threads.

What do you suggest for these then??

 

[digeorge]

Just read Kaplan or any other book that suits you..patho you can do Kaplan but use both q banks uw and Kaplan to strengthen it.
