so looking ahead to clerkships, i am curious as to how helpful uworld is in preparing students for shelf exams?

 

[meningioma]

i used UW for step 1.. was awesome.. now prep for ck.. one suggestion it will be really useful if u have a search option to search for a question using keywords .. it is really hard to locate the question while revising..

include me in the raffle for step 2 ck... would love to win it!!!

 

[Keg]

I've heard that USMLEWorld for Step 2 is good generally for shelf review but that for surgery, it's a bit ortho heavy.

That being said, I haven't purchased it as yet for studying but I intend to do so during the 2 weeks I give myself for Step 2 CK review. Unless I win it, of course, which would be awesome...

 

[02tigeralum]

How do people like the Step 2 CS review from USMLEWORLD? I am interested in purchasing it if it is worthwhile.

 

[Howser]

Anyone tried the CS Step 2. Was wondering if this was good for CS review?

 

[78222]

Will UW be offering practice tests for STEP II such as the ones offered for STEP I?


*enter me in the drawing*

 

[wmc24]

Will UW be offering practice tests for STEP II such as the ones offered for STEP I?


*enter me in the drawing*

i hope they offer the practice exams to compliment the nbme's. does the step 2 qbank offer the same options as the step 1 such as complete explanations of each answer choice and percentages of how others are doing also? thanks, enter me too haha

 

[lilnoelle]

I loved UWorld for Step 1 and have heard its great to prepare for shelf exams. I'll definitely be buying it to prepare for Step 2.
Thanks for the great product!

 

[Treg]

I loved UW for step 1 as well. Please include me in the raffle for step 2 materials as well!

 

[oreosandsake]

UWorld was my primary question source for Step 1 and I loved it. I have have heard that step 2 q bank is a great way to prepare for shelf exams.


please include me in the raffle!

 

[doc20]

I did great on usmle 1 caus I had 6 month of uworld and did it twice
I want to the same for usmle 2 so please include me for uworld step 2
also how many questions are on the uworld step 2? and can we do keyword search for questions?

 

[PenguinHead]

I'm pretty sure USMLEWorld was the main reason I overachieved on Step 1. I plan to use it as the main resource for step 2.

Thanks for the great product. Please include me in the raffle.

 

[USMLEWorld]

Our Step2 CK material is primarily designed to be used to study for the actual USMLE exam however it should also help you prepare for your shelf exam(s).

Our Step2 CK uses the same principal as our Step 1 qbank as described in our original post and displays an explanation of each of the questions when performing a review.

Keyword search is an odd feature for a question bank as the point of a question bank is to test and learn concepts and practices. You can always generate questions based on a particular specialty in our qbank. However, we have received request for such feature from other subscribers and will add it to our feature request list for possible future implementation.
We have already received multiple requests in past to create a NBME style self-assessment module for Step2 CK and our developers and authors are aware of it and currently involved in a feasibility study. An exact time frame of when this will be implemented is not known. We recommend you continue to check our website for further updates/details.

 

[Brett5]

Can the key word feature be used to find the explanation of a specific question you would like to look at again? Thanks for the info and I would love to give it a try!

 

[USMLEWorld]

Can the key word feature be used to find the explanation of a specific question you would like to look at again? Thanks for the info and I would love to give it a try!

Our course material currently does not contain a keyword search feature. It is however on our feature request for evaluation by developers and authors for possible implementation.

UWorld was almost essential for Step 1 and I hear much the same for Step 2.

If there's a raffle, I want in too!

 

[waterlily]

For Step 2 CK, are users able to select specific categories that they would like to focus on (ie obgyn, peds) or are the questions only available as intermixed?

I loved UW for Step 1. I'm looking forward to UW's step 2. Please include me in the raffle!!

 

[34140]

how do you enter the USMLE WORLD raffle? and if you win can you start at a later time?

 

[doc20]

does uworld ck2 comes with a score calculator?

 

[USMLEWorld]

@pnp366: Depending on the amount of user participation in this thread there is a possibility of a raffle for a 30-day Step2 CK subscription. We can offer a courtesy deferment of the subscription start date to the winner of raffle.

@doc20: Not all of our subscribers share their exact score in the exam after taking our services so we cannot provide a direct co-relation between a users performance in our qbank and their test score.

 

[futuredo32]

I'm taking Step 2 in late March and I may use USMLE World.
I was wondering if USMLE World has ever considered adding OMM questions for those of us who are taking COMLEX instead of USMLE?

 

[Jcan]

I'm in for the USMLE world step 2 raffle

 

[f1re11]

How often do you update questions? Are there many similar questions to the 2008 UW Qbank?

 

[SOUNDMAN]

I'd like to be entered for the CK raffle too. Wish there was a CS raffle as well, I'd be interested in that too. UW was instrumental in achieving the score I did on Step I.

 

[TerpMD]

Please include me in the raffle too! After my success with UW for step 1, I can't imagine not using it for step 2.

 

[The JockDoc]

I'm interested in entering the possible raffle.

 

[registered user]

I loved UW for step 1 as well. Please include me in the raffle for step 2 materials.

 

[okayplayer]

Please also include me in the Step II CK raffle. Thanks!

 

[ShadyMedicine]

Do UW offer "assessments" in addition to the CK bank like the ones available for the Step 1 bank? (Sorry, if this is stated in the first post. I looked and didn't see anything regarding assessments...)

 

[USMLEWorld]

@futuredo32: Our course offering is primarily designed for USMLE exam but we have received feedback from subscribers to also create some content for COMLEX. We currently do not have any plans to have material available for COMLEX preparation.

@fire11: We update questions based on any new research or change in procedures. You can review a change log of recent update/changes to your Step 2 CK material via http://www.usmleworld.com/step2QbankUpdates.htm link.

@ShadyMedicine: Please review our post #14 above for a response to your query.

 

[penguinophile]

I used the questions for the medicine shelf, and it made all the difference in the world. Look forward to using it again when Step 2 rolls around.

 

[PabsMD]

For those who have taken Step I and used the UW Qb, how many times did you go through the whole database in your preparation?

Is once enough?

 

[bbirch]

I was wondering if anyone has used Uworld for studying for their peds rotation exam? I definitely will be using it for STEP 2, but was wondering if their is enough depth for the shelf. Thanks.

P.S. add me to the raffle as well =)

 

[BusterDO]

UW was incredible for Step I, i plan on using it as my primary source for Step II.

Please include me in the raffle

 

[sctrait]

UW was my main resource for step one and it was definitely worth it,i'm planning on using it to prepare for the rest of my shelf exams this year.

 

[Instatewaiter]

if not already closed enter me in the raffle

 

[kush4444]

Please enter me in the raffle as well. Thank you.
