Combank claims to be the best osteopathic Q bank available. Its really unfortunate how many errors there are throughout the Q bank though. Suggestions and student feedback must not mean that much to them as the feedback would sort out or make it a better Q bank overall.
Complaints:
1. Explanations don't always match up. ex. explanations will explain different values than what the question used, and then use those numbers to explain the answer choices.
2. Incorrect spelling
3. Resources cited don't link.
4. Links go to uptodate, which students would have to pay for and then at times it says uptodate and instead links out to some other source.
5. Some answers are just flat wrong and can be easily verified incorrect with a quick search.
Best part about Combank is the statistics software used and the variety of questions that you see on there vs Uworld.
I enjoy using Combank overall, but I wanted other user opinions. I feel as if the bank is not worth its price being that when you buy Uworld for around the same price, you get a perfect question bank with invaluable explanations. Combank is just not up to par with other leading q banks. I hope writing this with other user input, will stimulate it to try and become better than what it is currently. It could be tremendously better with some mild polishing touches.
