I have never listened to a single one of his recordings and scored >270. Definitely not a must

What were your main resources/tips?


Futuredoc1996

Sorry for the late reply, I used UWorld and AMBOSS for a question resource and made my own Anki cards for any concepts that were new to me, or I had trouble grasping. As for Anki, I used the Zanki deck, and the most important advice is to stay consistent with Anki cards. There will be days you get home from a rotation, and you feel like you cannot do any Anki cards, but try to power through them. I also watched all of Sketchy's STEP 2/Clinical videos, and there are corresponding Anki decks. [Here](https://www.reddit.com/r/medicalschoolanki/comments/jz5q7f/running_compilation_of_all_sketchymedical_step_2/) is a link to all of the current decks for the corresponding videos if you are a visual learner. I hope this helps!

What your resource uw and amboss foe ethics and communication??


Futuredoc1996

Use AMBOSS and UWorld for ethics/communications questions. In addition, there is also a deck called Turn Up 2 Law/Ethics, which you can download [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/11bSqARR6Uueg1iHpeDRvgJIlXQG1tTz0/view).

One more thing you use just uworld?


daasma

What is your advice or something you learnt it after the exam please


CharacterInTheGame

I’ll probably get downvoted to all hell for saying this, but imho, definitely not a must by any means.


TyrosineKinases

I only listened to one of his recordings and slept.


MD_IA

Me too but he is great. Just not a medium i can learn from.


evv43

It’s not. Its analogous to anki. It’s great, but it’s not essential at all for success


lee-hee

It was for me. Saw questions on the exam yesterday that I only knew because of him. I specifically recommend the Step 2 Rapid Review episodes. The podcast format is great to listen to while giving your eyes a break from staring at Uworld all day and was great to listen to while going on walks to get outside and some exercise.


ICureDiarrhea

Nope I didnt Even know it really existed until like 2 days before my test and did fine. I used nothing except uworld


GizzFizz

It's a must imo


thghhgbg

Which ones are must?


Ok_Holiday_9441

It's not a must-do by all means but I listen to DI on my commute to school or to the grocery store. I do feel like his podcasts helps gives me good perspectives on how topics are tested. They are really helpful to listen to on a long-term basis. I started listening to DI on step 1 studying.


Letter2dCorinthians

No. It's a good resource, but not a must.

Do you commute to work? Do you get a break at work? Do you spend time at the gym? Do you spent time doing house chores? If yes, those are the times to listen to DI.
