hey..

Congrats for the great scores!

everyone , or atleast almost everybody here, recommends UW as a Qbank. but how do the new ones compare to the real step1?

- elseviers usmlesteps123 (heard nothing about this one)

- usmleRx (supposed to be to easy, or??)

- kaplan (i heard they kinda updated it recently to make it more like the real exam, harder etc. is this true?)

maybe some opinions here?
thanks..

usmleRX is by the makers of First Aid, so i assume that the questions would be similar to the FA Q&A book, and probably be a re-hashing of FA. so i wouldn't bother.

i don't know anything about usmle123easy.com...

i used kaplan qbank and usmleworld last time (and failed again) but i thought that the qbank has become much harder than in the past but closer to the exam. But i think that usmleworld was the CLOSEST to the exam. I found both useful, but usmleworld was the closest to the real thing.
