Just sign up for the Step II CK question. I had finished around 500 questions with score like in the 50%. Are there anyone one out there in the same boat as I am ? I find these questions is very CHANLLENGING and TRICKY at the same time. Around 75% of my questions I can narrowed it down to 2 choices, but of course ended up picking the WRONG answer :evil: The explanation is excellent I think, but there are couple of errors that I found on there. I think this is the best money I spend on an investment so far.
If anyone have a similar thought, please give me some feedback on what you guys think about those questions bank.
Any other advises and tips is greatly appreciated.

I haven't started UW yet, I'm doing Kaplan Qbank. I've heard it's easier, but have you tried them both? What were your scores in Qbank?

Just started it yesterday, only did a block of 25q on Hema/Onco, only reviewed hema not onco. Got in the 40's. Im not that bummed though because I heard from a million other people that UW is harder than qbnk. Im accepting the punishment so that I can nail q bank in a couple of weeks. I think if you average 40-60's on UW you'll be ok. I saw some score threads and people passed high with averages in high 40's and 60's. Hope this helps

My consern is there are people out there score 75 and up on UW and got high scores on the Step 2. Are these 75s from first time use of the UW, or is it mixed with used/incorrect qs, you know? Just curious, because it seems to me that to be able to score 75s on UW on first time is liitle too tough. :lol: but who knows, perhaps we need to work little harder.

Cruise,
I am a little bit more than halfway through Qbank. It's definitely much EASIER than Usmleworld for sure, no doubt about it. My average range from 66-79% on Qbank. AFter starting Usmleworld, I will definitely stick with it and try to to it twice by reading the explanation. I learn so much by just reading the explanation.
Like Arodny1 said, the question does not seems to be HARD at all, but the choices they have are VERY VERY VERY closed to each other. Sometimes, I thought I knew the topic really well and no matter how they ask, I will get it right. Unfortunately, it's not the case. But, it'a good thing that I get it wrong now so that I would not make the same mistake on the real exam.
I plan to give my exam toward the end of next month. How about everyone on here ?
Oh by the way, I just passed my step II CS. Got the score back on saturday. Thank god, I can study my CK now w/o thinking about whether I pass CS or not
