Week 2Biochemestry (General Principles) UWorldGenetics First Aid plus videosGenetics (General principles) UworldImmunology First Aid plus videos- There are approximately 70 questions of Biochemistry General Principles. Doing those questions will help you apply and memorize what you've learned in First Aid.
- Take the time to do the Board and Beyond Videos on Genetics Concepts ( Mapping, Hardy Weinberg Law).

Week 7Pharmacology ( General Principles) UWorldSocial Sciences (Ethics/Legal/Professional) First AidSocial Sciences (Ethics/Legal/Professional) UworldBiostatistics & Epidemiology First Aid plus videosBiostatistics & Epidemiology UworldI've personally used only First Aid along with Uworld for this section. However, if you need an additional resource, I recommend the 100 cases book by Dr. Conrad Fisher.

Week 8Biostatistics & Epidemiology UworldDo not spend too much time reading or watching videos on Biostatistics, as you'll learn more efficiently by doing questions.
10
High Yield Organs SystemsWeek 9Cardiology First Aid plus VideosTake the time to comprehend the physiology section of cardiology, as many questions on this section can pop up during the exam day. Board and Beyond or Physeo can help you navigate through the physiology concepts. Sketchy video will help you master the pharmacology section.

Week 10Cardiology System UWorld
12
Week 11Renal, Urinary Systems & Electrolytes First Aid and VideosRenal, Urinary Systems & Electrolytes UworldAgain, the physiology section is crucial to apprehend. Board and Beyonds and Physeo are handy resources for understanding and memorizing renal physiology concepts, and Sketchy Videos will help you master the pharmacology section. Studying the renal section right after the cardiology section will help you with these two topics as they complete each other.
13
Week 12Pulmonary & Critical Care First Aid and VideosPulmonary & Critical Care UworldMake sure to understand the charts, such as the Flow-volume loops and the Oxygen-Hemoglobin dissociation curve. Pathoma is a very handy resource for the pathology section.
14
Week 13Nervous System First Aid and VideosThe section on the nervous system is one of the longest. Take the time to go through each concept. I personally used Dr. White's videos from Kaplan Videos. They are very long videos, but you won't have any more trouble with the nervous system questions.
15
Week 14Nervous System UWorldOphthalmology and Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) First Aid and VideosThe Ophthalmology and Nervous System sections are interlinked. The ophthalmology section is relatively easy to do. However, make sure to understand the part on Cranial Nerves Palsy, Visual Fields Defects, and Internuclear ophthalmoplegia.
16
Week 15Ophthalmology and Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) UWorldPsychiatric/Behavioral & Substance Use Disorder First Aid and VideosPsychiatric/Behavioral & Substance Use Disorder UWorldSketchy Videos will help you with the essential pharmacology section. Take the time to memorize Diagnostics criteria by symptom duration, psychiatric emergencies, and psychoactive drug intoxication and withdrawal. Those parts pop up frequently on test day, and you must answer as quickly as possible.
17
Week 16Gastrointestinal & Nutrition First Aid and VideosGastrointestinal & Nutrition UWorldAlthough pretty long, the Gastro Enterology and Nutrition section is quite easy to understand; however, it requires some memorization. Some of you may just use First Aid without any support videos. Pathoma is sufficient for those who notice weaknesses. Again Sketchy for the pharmacology section is really useful.
18
Week 17Gastrointestinal & Nutrition UWorldMusculoskeletal, skin, and connective tissue First Aid and VideosAs for the Gastro Enterology and Nutrition section, the MSC section is quite easy to understand; but again, it requires some memorization, especially the anatomy section of First Aid. Support Videos are unnecessary, but you can use Board and Beyond or Pathomas Videos to help you better understand and memorize. Regarding the dermatology section, UWorld has a large pool of pictures of skin conditions. Again Sketchy for the pharmacology section is critical
19
Week 18Musculoskeletal, skin, and connective tissue UWorldHematology & Oncology First Aid and VideosDon't underestimate the Hemato Oncology section, as there is much to learn, including all types of anemia, coagulation disorders, and hematologic cancers. I found Pathoma videos great for this section, and Sketchy videos are one the best resources to cover anticoagulant drugs.
20
Week 19Hematology & Oncology UworldEndocrine, Diabetes & Metabolism First Aid and VideosAgain, take into account the Endocrine section, as there is much to learn. Please pay special attention to thyroid disorders and diabetes, as they frequently appear on test day. Sketchy is a must to memorize anti-diabetic drugs.
21
Week 20Endocrine, Diabetes & Metabolism UWorldReproductive First Aid and VideosPay special attention to the embryology part of the Reproductive system. You may not need to do videos, but if you notice any gaps, Board and Beyonds, Pathoma, or Physeo may help you master this section
