This was my second failure in Step 2. totally baffled and utterly frustrated. Took Kaplan's Prep Course for Step 2 , Qbank ?( ~ 72%) , Qbook. In both the tests, I had left atleast 10-15 questions because of time constraint. Since I'd graduated 5 years back, things look pretty down for me. Friends around are asking me to go for Brochert Mock questions, Crush the Boards and NMS. I had done Qbank only once. Not sure whether I should do it twice as stated in a couple of threads. Is there a particular strategy for answering long questions in the test ? Lot of threads talk about doing lots and lots of questions. Any suggestions where I could get lots of 'real test-like' questions , apart from Qbank, Qbook and NMS ? Help would be really appreciated.

Dear Rosemerry!
Its not the end of the world.
If you were scoring 72's on Qbank you probably just were one of the unlucky ones that had a tough test. I also heard that the Brochert Question book is good. I have a CD with appelton and lange that I am not using. It has a lot of questions but I havent heard much about it.

Oh my, sorry to hear it...I barely broke 200 on Step I and II (and damned myself with faint praise), and feel it's because I didn't do questions - the two things that my friends hung their hats on were Kaplan and GAZILLIONS of questions; considering there's a pool of about 60,000 questions, if you do 3 or 4000, you'll have seen a good number of the actual ones, and relatively nothing should be even a remote surprise (how many ways can they ask a question?). To find questions, though, you might have to suck it up and do Qbank, because there just aren't a lot of sources for good, realistic questions.
You CAN do it, though - just WORK IT!!!!
