hey,
anyone know what a passing level performance on Qbank is? In other words, what percentage of Qbank questions should you be getting correct to feel comfortable that you'll pass the exam?

60-65% is definitely safe.

how does qbook step 2 compare to qbook step 1 vs qbank? When I did qbook step 1, my percentages were probably 5-10% higher than what I did on qbank step 1. did you find that qbook ck was similar in difficulty to qbank? thanks.

Granted this is just personally, but I got around 70-75% right on Qbank and got 90-95% right on both steps. I always felt like Qbank questions were a lot harder than the actually step, but again, that's just my experience.

I'd re-check your math.

I did do better in QBook as well, but I felt that the questions were, in the end, very similar to the Step II CK. I thought many of the questions in QBank Step II were very esoteric.

I personally preferred QBook Step II to QBank Step II. For Step I, I felt the opposite.
