The Seven Sheets

The order matters more than the hours. Days 1–3: DNA viruses, then RNA viruses, then parasites. Days 4–6: fungi, gram positives, then gram negatives, atypicals and spirochetes. About 20 hours of video total.

The method is watch-then-test, same day. Watch once with no notes, recall the whole story out loud, watch again at 1.75× for the gaps only, read the PDF, then do that day's MCQs before you sleep. Skip in Sketchy and read from First Aid instead: TB, COVID, HIV, Bunyaviruses and malaria.

The reason pharm takes people three weeks is not difficulty — it is disorganisation. Nobody tells you which drugs are high-yield, and nobody tells you which resource teaches each one best. So you watch everything, from everywhere, twice.

This PDF is the answer to both questions in one document: every high-yield drug stratified by system, and the exact resource to learn it from. Keep it open the entire time — it is your syllabus, your reading material, and your checklist.

First Aid was written to remind, not to teach — which is why reading it cold does not work. The Guide decodes the book page by page. Every page carries Focus On, a Concept Walkthrough, "How is this tested?", Key Takeaways, and Test Yourself MCQs on that exact page.

The "How is this tested?" block is the one people screenshot: Common Confusion → Core Concept → The Trap → Your Approach. Written by people who scored 80%+ on their NBMEs, including me. Alongside it, ~2,002 ELI5 explanations, ~870 mnemonics and pearls, and 367 First Aid 2026 change cards.

Everyone thinks Neil Randy is only good for biostats, and almost nobody works through his full channel — which is exactly why it is an edge. This PDF breaks his entire video library down system by system, so you can run the videos that matter without hunting.

It is not just biostats: cardiovascular, CNS, psychiatry, ethics, biochemistry. Running it moved my scores, and my students', by 5–10%.

Not a playlist and not a per-system resource — a single dense document covering every system at once, built around the up-arrow / down-arrow relationships the exam keeps asking about.

Keep it open the whole way through your prep, and run it hard the week an NBME stops moving. It is the highest-yield thing available in a plateau.

A page-by-page aggregation of First Aid — the actual high-yield lines of every page, asked actively, with the page number printed on every card so you can jump straight back to the book when one makes you hesitate.

Around 2,400 cards, not 30,000. At ~400 a day that is a complete First Aid pass in five to six days, which is a sentence worth re-reading.

Everything worth keeping from fourteen retired NBME forms, turned into active recall. This is the deck for when you need points rather than content — you already know the material, and what is missing is the specific way these forms ask it.
