I reviewed all my labs, listened to lung sounds, and continue to do about 100-150 questions each day (I only used Kaplan's online tools and book). Just made myself get use to taking these questions and always reading rationales behind EVERY question..and not just the ones I had gotten wrong. Learned to not overthink a question and to just think logically.

I honestly...did not review meds. I felt there was just too many of them...and I felt knowing my basics was good enough. I work in a hospital and all my nurse co workers had told me they had gotten med questions with meds they had never even heard of. With each med questions I got (maybe 6 out of the 96 questions) I looked at each answer and thought of the outcome.

Needless to say I passed and I am beyond relieved and happy!

I don't know how people read 5 different books 300-500 pages each......I can barely review one book......which scares me to death! Good luck on your exam!
