http://www.usmleworld.com/ There's about 2000 mcq's there for step 2, it's similar to kaplan q-bank but questions are a bit harder i think.

My score for Usmleword was 63%( between 50 and 76%) and in the real exam 96/238. Don't worry. Good luck.

Xmihaela, How much you were scoring on Kaplan Q Bank and at that point how far you were from the actual test? I have not done USMLE word and Kaplan is my only way to compare. Appreciate it

Well ! I think you should pass with a good score. I think Kaplan simulatd CD's are made tough. I scored 54% on Kaplan simulated CD one day before actual step 1 exam and scored 86 in the real exam which was satisfactory for me. Don't know about step 2 cd though

I did above 70% ( I don't remember exactly) on Kaplan Qbank and I did it 1 month before exam. In my opinion the difficulty of the exam was between Kaplan( the easier) and usmleworld. You need to pay attention to the explanations and don't worry much about your scores. We all feel insecure and need reassurance. The important thing is to be relaxed, very well rested and practice lots of Qs . Try to do 46Qs in 45-50 minutes on home , so at the exam you won't worry about the time. Gook luck.

Do not forget to post your expereince in "DETAIL". If you do not want to reproduce the MCQ's atleast tell us what topics were tested and they were mostly focusing on the main points of a disease or from between the lines of the Text? Also what was unexpected for you in the test. Thanks and BEST LUCK...Go USMLE
