Kaplan Qbank USMLE

Does anyone who has both? Are they comparable? Level of difficultly vs both, as compared to Step 2? Thanks...smiling face

Did both, NMS is harder in content. Qbank, although easier, is more representative of Step 2 (except that my actual Step 2 questions were longer than qbank q's).

I still would recommend both. NMS prepared me to face tough questions on the exam, while qbank gave me a feel of the exam.

Good luck!

How did your Step 2 score correlate? I don't know whether to take Step 2 ASAP because of a false sense of security or what. Thanks! :roll:

i have been doing Kaplan Q bank questions but not doing well on them..so far, i did 25% of the questions and my average is 60%.
does anyone know how the percentage correlates to how well you can do on the actual exam?
should i may be not focus on the questions and just study material...i was told that best way to learn is from doing the questions--and not just reading passsively
thanks for any help

I've read in the forum somewhere that you can expect to add 15-20 points to your percentage, and that will be your 2 digit score. For example, if your average is 75% on Q-bank, then your 2 digit might be 80-85.
