Kaplan Videos + Lecture Notes 2010

If you get the Kaplan 2010 videos, I suggest you get copies of the 2010 Kaplan LivePrep Lecture notes as well. These follow along Exactly, and the videos point out extra *usually important* learning points and let you know what the pertinent information is and HOW it can be asked in a USMLE style question. However the lecture notes themselves are organized and straight forward and very easy to follow, and the videos themselves are a great audio/visual review, I've learned the combination of the two make for the best learning experience with these materials.

You can buy the videos from Kaplan, however, they are available online illegally.
Kaplan suggests you do the honest thing and purchase from them for a couple thousand, in which you will be given "a diagnostic test, 9 subject-based assessment tests, a full-length Simulated Exam and a 7 volume set of our high-yield Step 1 Lecture Notes". In addition, the lecture notes can be found online in pdf format, and also purchased for a reasonable price on www.ebay.com, although I'm not sure about the legality of selling such items.


********** I think these are pretty good extra resource for reviewing everything during 5th term, and a great thing to have for Step Prep if you're planning on NOT doing the Kaplan liveprep course.
