What's UWorld? I have BRS (I was a big fan of the practice tests first year) but I'm getting the feeling they aren't too terribly helpful for Step 1.

Question bank. http://www.usmleworld.com/

You NEED to do these questions. There are 2000, and I went through the whole bank twice. The questions are modeled from actual USMLE questions, and IMO, are actually more difficult than the real thing. Also, the interface is the same as on the actual test. Go through the questions, and read the explanations THOROUGHLY. I honestly think I learned just as much from UWorld as I did from First Aid. Plus, I had probably a dozen questions on the actual test that were nearly identical to the ones in the test bank.

If your school is anything like mine, people will be coming in all year trying to sell you one question bank or another (especially Kaplan). UWorld is the best.
