Qbank with the best explanations

[John 117]

I am going to purchase a qbank subscription soon and was wondering which ones had the best explanations. Obviously Uworld has great explanations, but what about Kaplan and USMLERx? If anyone has used those qbanks what is your take on their explanations? Thanks.

Definitely... from what I've heard from everyone.. there's no competition in that arena - usmleworld has the best..

Don't know about rx but kaplan explanations range from good to WTF. As in, they'll reference an FA page number but their explanation has nothing to do with what's in FA. Kaplan explanations tend to just be a big wall of text too, although they do have links to their medessentials book and have videos explaining concepts sometimes.

From what I've heard the Rx explanations are just regurging what's in FA.

Thanks guys that was great. The last thing I want to be doing is spending time looking up answers in books/online because a qbank had bad, confusing, or even wrong explanations. The value of a qbank goes down a lot because of no/poor explanations.

Rx is better than Qbank imo. Great to have snippets of FA right there so you don't have to open the book up
