I know there is some discussion about this in the past, but supposedly Kaplan step 2 qbank is recently revamped:

I am thinking about buying a 12 month subscription to either Kaplan or UW to study for shelf exams and get ready for step 2 at the same time. I was originally planning on buying UW, but now I've heard Kaplan might be good too. They are essentially the same price (Kaplan $30 more), so I am just wondering which would be the better method. I've heard that Kaplan isn't very difficult, but then a few messages since the kaplan qbank was updated have made it sound like the new qbank is even harder than UW. It seems like the hardest possible questions would be ideal for shelf studying, so I started thinking maybe kaplan would be better during the year, but I'm not sure if it is really any better since the change. I'd really appreciate input from anyone regarding this. Thanks.
 
wondering the same thing --- maybe both?! or anyother good options for questions for the shelf exams?
