I am thinking of using Kaplan CK Qbank initially as @Phloston swear by it. I will be focusing on uworld later on. I just wanted to know that is Kaplan Qbank updated cuz in Step 1 i saw some Questions dating back to 2009.
As guidelines has changed over years has kaplan Qbank been updated to reflect those changes?

thanks guys.
 
I came across 3 questions in Clinical mastery series that were identical to questions from The Kaplan Qbank. I got them ALL WRONG because I went with what Kaplan Said.

I only did 38% of Kaplan Q bank and I'm glad I stopped.

To be Fair, they have some important points that I didn't come across in any other recourse. i.e CABG vs PCI indications, Malaria prophylaxis in detail. But these don't seem to show up in the NBME's and Clinical mastery series.

You can go for it, keeping this in mind, as long as you have the time and plan to do UW AFTERwards.
 
Kaplan got me two questions right on my real deal that I wouldn't have otherwise.

And no, Kaplan is not updated. You have to realize that preparation for 2CK across the board sucks. That's why UpToDate is so important.
