Qbanks Comparison
Kaplan Qbank
www.kaptest.com
- Gold standard
- Challenging questions
- Detail Explanations
- Useful performance tracking
- Fairly stable system (except during June to July)
- Expensive, expensive, expensive!!!
- Bottom line: Get it if you can afford it!
====================================
USMLErx
www.usmlerx.com
- Pretty new (fresh materials)
- Slightly easier questions
- Great explanation and First-Aid Facts!!!
- Some technical problems here and there
- Not too expensive, but few people can afford both Kaplan and USMLErx
- Bottom line: Give it a try if you can't afford Kaplan
========================================
USMLE Steps1-2-3
www.studentconsult.com
- Another new comer
- Great Interface
- Questions are fairly standard, no surprise here
- Some cool performance review options (not quite important personally)
- Explanation is also great
- Also expensive
- Bottom line: It's either USMLErx or this
========================================
USMLExchange
www.usmlexchange.com
- Latest player
- Mix of long clinical-based questions and rapid-firing review questions.
- Explanation is also good.
- Great Interface
- Performance review is pretty good
- No subscription necessary, cheap, cheap, cheap (Search for coupon codes online)!
- Bottom line: Great supplement to Kaplan or USMLErx or USMLE Step 1-2-3. Get them both if you can afford another 30-40 bucks.
======================================
USMLEWOLRD
www.usmleworld.com/
- It's been there for a while (questions seem to be unchanged)
- Smaller question pool size
- All stanard features
