TOLITO..im so glad to c ya from what ive concluded form the forum..yes kaplan but they are not good enuff as they were for step2 kry to step 2 is qs.we'll have to do usmleworld/ q book for kaplan ( not bank as it aint supposed to be that great)... one more addition...crush by adam brochart thoug some prefer step2 secrets which is the similar material in q and a format...browse thru ipseg and robin's posts for free downloads. goljan audio's available but no notes. good luck

oh and one more thing...if u plan reading on surgery from kaplan and find the initial chapters too boring, do the vignettes first..the initial chapter is more like a summary..the vignettes help us learn and they keep u slightly awake

you have misunderstood me, tolito; I just wanted to say that the great majority of the members of this forum are using kaplan LNs for step 2 CK (plus, UW), with a wide range of results - from failing to getting 286/99.

thanks a lot study-ing and p53. it is good news that qbank is not as good as UW!! UW is way cheaper too. am yet to start reading in earnest. this weekend is my watershed (like blood flow from umbilicus )
