I am wondering if someone has used this Q-bank and can provide a feedback? The price is very tempting but the website seems to be very new and not listed in FA. Is it too good to be true?

SPAM ALERT

typical spammer M.O. try to sound innocent, and post a website link that you are affiliated with.

score95 website domain was just registered not even a month ago.

I am an IMG and I saw a few posts re: mentioned above site on prep4usmle forum. Some of the members of that forum claim they recently started using this q-bank and are happy with it. However, I decided to find out more before I pay my money despite that the price was right for my budget. I didn't try to sound innocent, I did ask innocent question. In fact, I registered on this site so that I could do search, ask q-s and get some support for my home studying. B/c if not for internet forums, I just sit at home at my desk, stare at the computer screen or read my books and there is no one single soul around who shares the same goal with me. If you guys have a negative opinion/info about score95, you just post it and I would appreciate that b/c my post was about gathering info. Instead you go on to attacking me and calling me a spammer on a first suspicion and this is just frustrating. So much for peer support.

I'm sorry if I jumped to the wrong conclusion🙁

I have not used score95 but I would recommend usmlerx Step 1 Qmax, robbins review of pathology question book and the NBME practice tests.

Good luck👍

thanks, superoxide. I was planning to buy Kaplan q-bank after I have gone thru all the subjects once. Kaplan resources seems to be a Bible of USMLE prep at least for us, IMGs. The reason I was looking into different banks isn't only the price but also that I need to have some help with reinforcing the material I read now and there is no other alternatives in a home setting than doing qs. So I am looking for a qbank that can be sorted by the topic within the subject so that I could do qs when I finish chapters/sections. I did think of robbins, may be I should just go with that. I am doing patho right now anyway. I do have big robbins and refer to it for more info when needed.

USMLErx allows you to do questions according to subject/systems (it has all the features as qbank). From what I have seen here from people who have recently taken step 1, usmlerx question formats are more similar to the actual test. Qbank seems to have many 'buzzwords" which give away the answer and it is cheaper than qbank (one month subscription is $99 as opposed to $199 for qbank)
