one my friend took the class in Dallas, she said it was horrible and again she took Kaplan classes again....she also told that that so much money is not worth it...u have to pay for ur own dinner ,the receptionist don't behave well, the shuttle takes forever to come to pick and u have to pay 100 dollars for a small microwave and mini refrigerator.......the money they tell u that they gonna refund if u fail is just for taking lecture calsses everything u have to pay including the accomodation.....I also have heard some negative comments in usmle forum...before u spend money ,just listen to other people's advises....also I saw the notes it was not good at all...kaplan is worth the money and the best course for usmle ,I think...hope u make a wise decision...Good luck
