Do the people who do 10,000 questions score well because they did 10,000 questions or because they simply are better at taking standardized tests? I wonder if they'd kick butt with just UWorld 2x and FA.
I think there is a benefit from questions, but I don't really know if doing USMLERx, Kaplan, a decent chunk of USMLEWeapon has actually helped me much relative to something like Pathoma or working my ass for two years learning the basic sciences well the first time. I feel like I capped out a long time ago. Kaplan's nit-picky question style just annoyed me. USMLERx felt like it had at least some added value in terms of things that aren't already in First Aid, but I wonder if knowing the differential for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis would ever get someone more points on STEP 1 since it's not talked about in any other review book that I've seen. I think they just wanted a unique question.
