Hey all,

Curious to see what people out there think about the title.

Currently, on track to possibly finish UWorld sooner than I was expecting and was wondering - is it better to try to make another run through UWorld (or just the incorrects) or buy another Question Bank and do that alongside UWorld before entering dedicated?

OR neither and just read (or anki) weak points in FA?

Thanks!

Rx or kaplan
 
I’m a strong believer in doing UWorld twice but I think three times is overkill (I’m assuming you’d do UWorld during dedicated as well). I’d do Kaplan. After I took step 1 I was really happy I did Kaplan. It does a good job preparing you for some of the more obscure/odd questions that you’ll see on Step 1. Plus, the more different questions you can see before Step 1, the better!
 
Use a different Qbank. You want to review the material as many times as possible, but you want to make sure you're actually learning the material and not just the actual questions. I think seeing the same topics worded in different ways will give you a far better way of measuring if you've really learned the material than just running through the same questions over and over.
