Hi,
I have 3 months left for Step1 prep, (4-5 hrs each day, 7-8 hrs on weekends because I am working during the day) and I read through Kaplan 4vol review and FA ONCE.
My plan was to do Qbank now, read over kaplan & FA again, then take UW & NBME questions.
But 700 questions into Qbank, I'm only scoring 42% cumulative. random questions, timed and 25-50 questions at a time. I was doing much better on Utah med online path quizzes.
So I was hoping Qbank would reinforce basic knowledge and I'd use it as another study tool, more so than an absolute barometer of my Step1 performance.. am I using it wrong? Should I delay doing more Qbank q's until I re-read review books?
