i have the 2005 kaplan books that seem to be orgainzed by organ systems, i am about 33% through these books.

i ordered web-prep by kaplan and got new books with a few revisions but they seem to broken down by subject.

should i abandon the 2005 and start the new kaplan? (remember the old ones are organ system based)

should i continue with the 2005 & then go through any new material in the kaplan? and the new questions?

i was getting along so nicely and now i am freaking out about what to do.

Hey - I would stick with what you have and know them very well. A BIG mistake many people many is to jump ship and because so and so (he/she knows....).

If you are 1/3 of the way - means you are pretty comfortable with them. I would suppliment your reading and q-bank testing with an extra biochemistry, Pharmacy and Pathology text. My suggestions are as follows, Pathology either Rapid Review or Robbins(work the questions), Biochemistry Lippicott Biochemistry, Rapid Review or BRS, maybe add "Cell Biology and Genetics" by (Starr/Taggart a real fast read) and a real good pharmacy book. Would also scan microbiology made ridicusoly simple. Keep reading a working q-banks - daily...

Best wishes for a successful test!!!
