Just finished up annotating my first aid heavily from both USMLE Rx and Kaplan Q bank. Without a doubt, the annotating questions bit takes up quite a bit of time. I have 7 wks to study for step 1 over summer and was planning on starting uworld then.
My questions is pretty simple: for those who have done USMLE Rx and Kaplan Q Bank, would you say that UWorld has additional KNOWLEDGE/FACTS not found in Rx, Q bank or First Aid. I'm not talking about multistep questions or about the quality of questions or question difficulty; I know Uworld is gold. But, if I know that most of my time can be spent answering questions and reading explanations and not having to annotate more information, such as new drugs, microbes, etc. b/c I've already seen them in Qbank or Rx, then I know I will be able to save a lot of time.
Hope this question makes sense. I'm hoping that b/c I spent so much time on Rx and Qbank and annotating first aid, that I don't have to annotate as much once Uworld comes around and I can spend my time elsewhere.
