I have done Rx, Kaplan, Becker, and UWorld twice each and I am looking for a new qbank. Anyone know of any other quality banks with relevance to the Step 1? I don't want to do these qbanks again. What do you think of BoardVitals, True Learn, etc?

Yeah, I read all the explanations and took notes of the difficult questions. On the second run through, I only read the explanations for the ones that I got wrong.
Would you recommend it for Step 1 studying? How are the questions?
I have no idea about this Qbank but it's recommend in the First Aid section of Top-Reviewd Resources
Tbh I think you should read all the explanations on UWORLD even if you got the question right just my opinion.
Good luck on your exam^^
How long did it take you to go through these 4 qbanks, twice each?
I think by now you should be close to 250/260. Have you done any NBME yet? I'd suggest take an online NBME soon.

I wouldn't venture into lower quality questions once you've finished UWorld, Rx and Kaplan (and Becker). I'd focus your time consolidating by memorizing FA more. You've maxed on the question side of things. Now you need to match it with the same magnitude in terms of FA. And make sure to finish on all of the NBMEs. If I were you, I'd find the offline, older NBMEs (e.g., forms 1-7). You can find them floating around the internet somewhere. Don't trust the answer keys 100%. But those are the only questions I'd recommend at this stage, apart from spending time on FA. Forms 1-7 = 1400 questions, just fyi.
