my step2 CK experience

I used this website when I prepared for Step1 and a little bit for Step2 CK and it was very useful for me.
I received my scores for CK yesterday, they were 96/237. I am really happy right now.
I didn't find the exam as difficult as Step1. The exam tests all the material and the questions are from all over. I've had a lot of questions from diabetes, cardiology, respiratory system. A lot of "what do you do next?", "what is the most sensitive/specific test", "the best step in management" questions. So it's very good to study in that way.
I have studied for 3,5 months everyday for at least 10 hours/day. I have read Blue Prints, Crush, First Aid, QBank, Qbook and Kaplan Video Lectures. From all of them, I found Kaplan Video Lectures the most helpful because they tell you exactly what is the next step you do in management, what is the best step in management and so on. Plus, some of the teachers in the videos are so funny and explain so well that is very difficult not to understand the concepts. During the exam I could remember very well similar cases presented in video lectures and I knew the answer right away. So highly recommend them.
I want to thank to all the people who put posts here. All the exam experiences and mnemonics were very useful to me.
