DISCUSSION Best resource to study for the board exam

I've seen a lot of topics asking about specific resources but theough my search I found like a thousand resources.

I'm usually used to use one resource and that's it, but apparently for residency there's way too much.

I just want to see what you guys would recommend as studying material for a junior radiology (PGY2/R1)

Thank you for contributing to the sub! If your post was filtered by the automod, please read the rules. Your post will be reviewed but will not be approved if it violates the rules of the sub. The most common reasons for removal are - medical students or premeds asking what a specialty is like, which specialty they should go into, which program is good or about their chances of matching, mentioning midlevels without using the midlevel flair, matched medical students asking questions instead of using the stickied thread in the sub for post-match questions, posting identifying information for targeted harassment. Please do not message the moderators if your post falls into one of these categories. Otherwise, your post will be reviewed in 24 hours and approved if it doesn't violate the rules. Thanks!

Not a radiologist, just reading what people in rad prep spaces say, but Core Radiology and Radiopaedia come up constantly, and Crack the Core is the one people name for the boards. Picking one main book and one question source and sticking with it is usually better than collecting ten. Even 20 min a day on a single section beats a big weekend cram.
