Has anyone seen one or multiple video sources for USMLE prep and can comment on what they felt was better? I have the kaplan videos and am wondering how those are maybe in comparison to something like doctors in training. I don't know of any other sources in specific but has anyone seen both kaplan and DIT, was there a lot of overlap or did one have some stuff the other didnt or do a better job? Or comment on anything else about the videos.

Kaplan is more comprehensive.
DIT seems to be focused on more packed into a short time.
It depends on whether you need a full review or a high yield look through First Aid.

So true. One of my friends had the Kaplan videos, and they seemed extremely long compared to DIT course that I took. If you don't have a strong foundation, then maybe you should do Kaplan. Even if you do the Kaplan, I would still have to recommend doing DIT after it (it's only 3 weeks, after all). The Kaplan videos that I did see (like 2) have a lot more detail in them as well, which is probably not needed (again, depends on your understanding of the material to begin with).
You're not fooling anyone.
