Kaplan help..

hi so I bought the Kaplan on demand on Feb 28th. I have gotten through 2 topics so far and have scheduled my exam for april 17th. This will be my second time taking it I took it feb 6th and failed. My question is should I be going over the exact way they say too? Read, then watch the videos, then do questions and then the question trainers?? I feel like if I read and then watch the videos it is taking up a lot of time and I know the reading is helping but I dont know about going over the videos too or should I just keep doing it?? My scores are low on qbank the highest was like a 60%. What do they say you should be getting if you are ready?? Will I be ready to take it again by april 17th? I'm considering rescheduling but I want to take it so bad just want to make sure I'm ready.

Knowing and understanding your content is important. You can do it in 2 way. 1. You should read saunders for your content b/c it will talk about whole disease process and it will help you remember stuff. 2. By doing questions and reading all rationale, it will help you remember that certain topic. I don't like Kaplan book and video b/c its really dry material. But if your scores are b/w 50-60 you should be ok.

I agree at least as far as the videos go, they arent very informational and are very dry. Dont really cover much.

One more thing if this is second time then do pay attention to the topics that you scored low on. I wasn't doing that good with my exam so i got all the questions, so if you know your content you can still pass your exam. Good luck
