Biochem Important question

[ajmeru]

Hello everybody,
My exam is coming soon, very soon. I'm panicking about biochem. I feel Kaplan biochem is too large for me to cover. Is First Aid good enough for Biochem? I really need your opinions. Also, when doing Usmle World, do you guys just read and take notes on the Educational Objective or the whole explanation? Please I'll appreciate your help. thanks

I personally liked the Kaplan biochem text and thought it was worth reading for the exam. I read it 3-4 times myself. If you don't think you can finish the text, I recommend reading the explanations in UW in their entirety. During my last 2 weeks, I used UW explanations as text material and it was well worth it. FA is ok for pathways I guess, but I didn't use it much - maybe someone else can comment on that.
