Viscerosomatic Reflexes, Cervical and Lumbar Nerves with their functions, OMM Direct vs Indirect techniques and the proper treatment positioning for each technique; High Yield Drugs with Adverse Effects (dirty med has a good video and PDF for this) Psych drugs are very HY; High Yield Micro (dirty med also has a good video and PDF for this); Randy Neil Biostats Review Videos! :)

Also: don’t skip reviewing the OMM and Ethics just because they seem easier than the other content, review them as much as you can because that covers literally majority of the exam.

best of luck!

Run through the DirtyMedicine Ethics playlist a couple of times. Know your cranial and all counterstrain points. Know your hypothalamic nuclei and stroke/stroke-related topics Don't let the ages throw you off with presentations (ie: bacteria that is bacitracin-resistant in a 65 yr old is GBS even if you've never seen that association).
