kindly keep on giving assesments at regular interval so that u can track your progress
EXAM is very doable yes u will find WTF qstns but chll try to make a logic and mark one and move on

I started my dedicated preparation for Step 2 CK during my internship, and the total duration was around 15 months.

Physiology – raftry with emrcs  Pathology – raftry few topics and emrcs Pharma and micro – emrcs  I read raftry for physio complete twice , patho and micro once only  Biostatistics – emrcs  For basic sciences reading emrcs with its theory is more than enough with few references from text books to make the concepts clear  Fawzia sheets for paper one is very very very important , somehow in every session of this examination RCS is putting almost 50-60% paper from these sheets ...
