who said that 'Kaplan LN: Ob-Gyn' is rated higher than 'Blueprints Ob-Gyn'?

'Blueprints Ob-Gyn' is much, much, much better than 'Kaplan LN: Ob-Gyn'.

most people even think that 'Blueprints Ob-Gyn' is the best in 'Blueprints' series, and, at the same time, 'Kaplan LN: Ob-Gyn' is the worst of 'Kaplan LNs'.

'Blueprints Pediatrics' is the next most valuable after 'Blueprints Ob-Gyn' in 'Blueprints' series, and 'Kaplan LN: Pediatrics' is as bad as 'Kaplan LN: Ob-Gyn'.

overall, I think 'Kaplan LN: IM' is better than 'BP Medicine', but 'Step-Up to Medicine' is better than 'Kaplan LN: IM' -

I found kaplan pretty useful so far, had tried BP surgery but found it disgusting. Cant really comment on the obgyn one, after surgery i kinda gave up on BP. Went through some portions of BP psych. that was kinda Ok.
