Even though I am taking the test next Wednesday I thought it couldn't hurt to do a couple hundred questions a night from it since I keep reading so many good things about it. I'll let you know what I think about it later.
 
I like it so far. It feels a whole lot different than Q Bank. The explanations are a lot better.
 
good stuff - keep it up - i think (hoping for my own sake) that you will see it pay off on the exam...

Well I just finished 100 random questions and ended up with a 79%. I'll take that any day of the week. I plan on trying to get somewhere close to 50% of these suckers done. We'll see if I can!
 
I have been using UW the last 3 weeks and I am 70% done with a 74%. I took the NBME-3 today (730 (259)) and I felt the Q's were a lot easier. Just my opinion. I am glad I have been using it. 3 Q's were right from it.
 
Sounds like you're on a path to domination, G0S2.


I took NBME forms 1 and 2 and there were 3-4 q's from each that were basically word-for-word q's I had seen on UWorld.
 
Again, >230 and I am happy. Hopefully I have some room for the jitters and those WTF? Q's. May all those faithful to UW and Goljan dominate!!

Interesting --- I got a similar score on NBME form 3 and thought it was harder than UW! Definitely the hardest of the NBME exams.

odd....similar scores here on UW and test 3 (a little higher on UW and lower on nbme)....I thought the nbme was much easier then UW.....I felt much more sure of my answers on the nbme then I usually am on a decent percent of the the UW q's
