Dear friend
thanks for your reply
As I know teimourzadeh has the very old edition (2002) of kaplan qbook & lecture notes.
Are they useful for 2007 exams?!
Isn't there any way to find the newer editions in our country?

dear dr
If you live in US at present time, it would be easy for you to find the latest edition of aforementioned books & maybe registering in kaplan courses! The big problem is for people who live inside Iran!
Unfortunately, as I haven't read neither the old nor the new one I can't compare them but it's obvious that the new edition would be more suitable.
About the exam, it seems a tough one especially for iranians because of visa problems, lack of related publications such as kaplan in iran, and also some exam-related issues such as its long time, importance of your score,...
Apparently, kaplan lecture notes & Qbank & also usmleworld Qbank are the milestones to be prepared for step2ck but the other popular ones are: First Aid for the USMLE
Step 2, Blueprints, Boards and Wards for the USMLE
Steps 2 & 3.
If you read some thread created by tinkerbell & fragile_x in this forum, you can find very useful information:
BTW, please inform me if you find a way for buying new kaplan notes in iran!!
Good luck
