So, I am getting prepared to retake my boards, and people keep telling me conflicting things about what book(s) I should be using. I don't have a lot of money to purchase extra books, but I have the Saunders Q&A Review 4th Edition, Exam Cram (content and questions) 3rd Edition, Kaplan, and LaCharity. I have heard that the Saunders I have is no good and I should go get the 5th Edition COmprehensive Review by Saunders......it is all stressing me out even more and I can't get like this, I have enough text anxiety as it is!

4th edition is fine for Saunders, you are good to go...you have more than enough books.

You have plenty of material. Stop thinking about what you indicate that you know to be nothing more than a distractor. Instead, devote your energy to productive study. Good luck.

Hello!
Please concentrate on Saunder's comprehensive review on content, and then practice questions in the CD system by system.. I suggest not to try answering the CD first without reviewing on content... Knowledge should be the foundation. We cannot answer those questions if do not know the subject matter in the first place. Content, then questions, read the rationales, then go back to content, then move forward!
Good luck!
