hello,
i plan to take step 2 cs soon.
what is the least time i need to prepare for it and what are the best material to study.
thanks

I m taking my CS in early May too. I thnk the most popular book is the FA for CS, but have you look at Kaplan CS 35 complex cases? I bought that one and i think i will use it as my primary study sources for this. I think there are more information in it then FA, plus it has all this cut-out flash cards that help u to practice. I plan to spend about 2 weeks reading that books, but everyone seems to tell me practice practice practice... So i hope to find a partner to do this with. Are u in Orange County, CA?

it takes about 4 weeks for cs preparation.. FA and Usmleworld are great, and more than enough for the exam...try to google digitaldoc.blog.. its a very good resource for usmle exams.. good luck!
