Hi again NY37. I used several books with practice questions - I didn't use the core curriculum at all btw - though I know others who were very happy with it.
I did use the CEN Review videos from Laura Gasparis VonFrolio. My set of tapes are old (no idea if she has a newer set out) but she covered patho well enough, IMHO, that I could suss out many of the questions I had no clue about!
Hope this helps!

i don't know what books are out there but you should go for it. it's your typical exam. if you have decent experience and study the preps you should do well!
