Fix it FArthur


My current hobby: keeping track of each error (or potential error) I come across in the Kaplan USMLE Step 1 textbooks (copyright 2011).

At the moment, across 6 texts, I've come across 24 potential errors. The majority are typographical errors, a few formatting, one error that gave an incorrect fact, and one question whose explanation continues to evade me. I know that First Aid gives monetary compensation for every error in its book. I've inquired Kaplan, and they've sent out mixed messages ranging from "no" to "free review book". So, we will see.

So I finally finished all of the histology that wasn't covered by Kaplan professors. It took...uhh...longer than it was supposed to. ie all the time I wanted to give towards actual anatomy that I've studied before went into histology. That isn't doing wonders for my current Kaplan-endorsed schedule.


Edit: found another factual error
