Just wanted to let you know that I PASSED MY ABP PEDIATRIC RECERTIFICATION EXAM, and I couldn't have done it without PBR! I followed your study plan with a twist:
1) The first time through PBR, I rewrote the text into several notebooks. This took a really long time, but really helped me "read" the material. Then, I reread my notes 5 times , writing notes in the margins, etc. I haven't had to study like this in years, and rewriting the material helped my mind learn how to study again, so this step is only for those who may have some cobwebs in the attic!
2) 3 years of PREP questions, 100 questions at a time, under test conditions. Then I would read all the answer/explanations, and annotate my notes as needed.
3) ABP's practice test
If PBR is still around in 10 yrs, I'll be repeating steps 1-3!
Thanks Ashish!
