Thanks for the feedback. much appreciated
: i took kaplan for step 2 (i took that first) then went to champaign for step 1 at pass program, i felt step 1 is better at pass, for he lays quite a thorough basis for step 1, but some step 2 stuff is missing, like initial dx or tx steps, so for that reason i liked kaplan for step 2, now if it's enviornment u want, like study environment b/c everyone else there is studying, well then champaign is probably ur best bet.. hope that helps!
oh i also had youel's videos for step 1, which were ok, i got thru like half, but didnt have the patience to sit at home and watch them, prior to that i took kaplan for step 1, and wound up loving pass program and what he brought all together into my head for step 1, i just can't say the same for their step 2 lectures unless they've changed it up.. get ur tutoring, and do uworld bank for ck and ur set.. if ug ot the basics down from step 1, i dont think it matters where u go for step 2, b/c more or less it overlaps.. i had done it the other way around so that's why maybe i felt kaplan was better for step 2,but i know a lot ofppl who did that, took pass for step 1, and kaplan for step 2.. good luc!
: I am preparing for step 2Ck soon. I am deciding between private tutoring from Dr. Youels or taking the pass program in Chicago. I don't know anyone who has used these resources. If anyone has, please reply back with feedback on if they were benefical.
