I have been a lurker on this post during my preparation for Step 2 CK. I have benefited from the posts on this forum, and it's now my turn to give back. I am a fourth-year medical student at a US med school, and I took Step 2 CK on December 29. I wanted to share my experience in preparing for the exam as well as my result.

I studied solidly for the month of December. I ONLY did USMLEWorld. I completed all the questions and read most of the explanations one time through. My cumulative score was 61%. I did all random, 46-question timed blocks. It was arduous and extremely slow-going at times reading explanation after explanation. I didn't use any review book. Doing questions and reading the explanations was more engaging for me than trying to read through a review text. The two days before the exam, I read through the 1-3 line "educational objectives" at the end of each of the explanations as a final review.

I was concerned about using USMLEWorld as my only source of preparation for the exam, but I was simply unmotivated to do anything more. Additionally, the explanations alone in USMLEWorld were enough to memorize!

Finally, to assess where I stood, I took the NBME test #1 two weeks prior to taking CK and scored a 520.

So, did it work for me? Yes! I received my score on January 24 and received a 238/96. I was thrilled. USMLEWorld worked for me.

I don't remember the exact numbers because the test was a month ago, but:

step 1 215 or so
step 2 208/85

usmleworld: from 0 to 100% on practice tests, average score of 40-50%

I did well on things I studied (ob-gyn) but not on stuff I hadn't (endocrine and peds in particular). Had a couple of onc questions that stumped me (among many others). My school doesn't have shelf exams. Used First Aid for Step 2 which was helpful, though there were occasional mistakes in my version. Also Brochert's Crush was okay -- a little too much of a skeleon for me since I was starting with little baseline knowledge. Did only about 1/4 to 1/2 of usmleworld questions and found that many (maybe 7) were on my test in almost exactly the same form.
