Step I Qbank Neuro representative?

For those of you who have taken the exam and did qbank, did you think that the level of difficulty and detail was comparable to the real thing? (I know that the NMBE practice exams are the best source, but I wanted to save those for next week.)

Thanks in advance for any input, and also thanks to everyone who provides such great advice in this forum!

Depending on how many neuro questions you get, I would say QBank does a fairly good job. I would pay attention to the high yield areas of strokes, disc herniations, CNs, brachial plexus, and lower limb.

Anything beyond that is a crapshoot.

I felt that QBank did a good job.

The highest yield info NOT covered in QBank is the brainstem lesions chapter in HY Neuroanatomy, however.

Next two days, I'm am going to read every post you post on here.

Yea, I'm the only one on here who tends to post actual FACTS regarding the exam and not broad/vague/theoretical generalizations.

Thanks Jalby, and good luck to you.

Agree,

Neuro was represented on my exam. Had quite a bit of neuroanatomy. Of course know both the anterior and posterior circulation, brain stem anatomy, visual anatomy from the eyeball to the occipital lobe, etc..I read HY Neuroanat and I was glad that I did. I did think FA neuroanat was pretty good, especially the brachial plexus stuff ie Erb's. Oh, I also recommend knowing about seizures i.e what a frontal lobe seizure vs- a temporal lobe seizure or occipital seizure. I wouldn't spend too much time on the ear. Gotta be the most annoying thing to study w/ the least return.
