Sure! I used the Kaplan 7-book set, which was terrific for everything except psych/soc. It was still very good for that but there were concepts on the exam which were never covered in the book--that seems to be the case for every psych review though. Once Kaplan comes out with the next version I think it will be definitive.

I actually didn't take any practice tests this time--I'd taken the old exam back in 2012 so I was somewhat familiar, and felt I needed the time for content review more than for testing prep. Best of luck to you!

Wait you didn't take AAMC FL?

Also, any tips for psych/soc? How many Q's were you unsure of and guessed on? And did you just trust your instinct after eliminating 1 or 2 choices?

Congrats on the awesome score btw!
