KAPLAN QBANK STEP 2 CK VS UWORLD FREE
I'd still say give it a shot for the 30 free questions.Īnd yes, thanks for the Bruton's heads-up! And World doesn't let you practice in FRED2 Where Consult lets you choose Fred1 or 2 for each exam. BUt I am digging USMLE Consult right now, so I figured i'd throw it out there, since its not really well known.
KAPLAN QBANK STEP 2 CK VS UWORLD TRIAL
Ya, i know World gets banging reviews from our peers, but there has to be a time when someone outperforms them, and it needs to be given a chance to be proven only by the trial and error method. Thanks for the tip off dude and good luck for your resulyįor me the stress train starts witht he exam in a month Wow i didnt know it was that high yield ! UW is the best right now, not because i say it because it has been proven a lot of times. I'm telling all my friends about it, and have converted almost all. I truly think it is going to be the USMLEworld Killer. And, the answer explanations have links to tones of current textbooks and other resources, as well as giving a high yield hit, and great explanations as why each other choice was wrong. You can choose every exam between Fred1 and Fred2 (the new USMLE interface). I have access to USMLEworld and Q-bank and this in my opinions takes the cake. I am prepping for the Step 1 in less than a month, and relying on this almost entirely as my source for questions. I'll do you all one better than either of those question banks. I just posted this in a thread a minute ago so I could do so here, I really think it can help. Because I did not yet take Step 1, I guessed based on the question stem and history.Īgain as everybody knows it, UW is the closest among the bunch to the real exam. Another, a gram stain slide with some microbes, they asked what it is. One of them, a MRI image with a lesion, they asked what is the location of the lesion. About 4-5 questions were directly from Step 1. EKGs were three - one A.Fib, one MI and the other I have no idea, just guessed from the question stem. I got very few preventive, very few vaccines.

For whatever reasons USMLE folks seem to love Immunology. Timing was never a problem, but 3rd block I had to hurry though. But the test window is smaller than the actual computer screen size, so probably that increased the number of lines compared to UW. The questions seemed longer in general (at one point in time I literally sat down counting the lines of one Psych Q - 18 lines). I took a 3-5 minute break after each and every block with a 15 minute lunch break. It is very difficult to analyze if I did well or not.Īnyway, as everybody said, the exam is definitely doable, I managed to save 25 minutes break time for the last 2 blocks which helped me refresh my mind.

I just went on reading the questions and picked an answer that seemed right. But if you have to choose any one, choose UW.īose, what was your exam like? what type of questions did you get? But if money isn't a problem, it is always better to do both. I took my exam yesterday and felt that Kaplan was not anywhere near. UW is closest to the way questions are asked on the real exam. Is money an object? If no, go with both, but make sure you do Kaplan first. I don't have any limericks, but I will present you with the following:
