Can we attempt to settle this once and for all? Lol. One side believes in seeing as many new questions as possible. The other believes in just sticking to the one, gold standard resource, which is UWorld, obviously. I have seen many off the charts scores from both groups.
UWorld 2x
Pros: Repetition of the greatest resource that's the most similar to step
Cons: Lack of exposure to other kinds of questions that potentially may get you the harder questions on step
UWorld + other banks
Pros: You get tested in a myriad of ways, so you're theoretically prepared for any kind of question
Cons: You don't get that repetition with UWorld
I guess it comes down to doing what works for you, but how would you even know what works better for you until you actually pick one way of doing it?
For what it's worth, I'm leaning towards running it once (and redoing incorrects). But I may end up splitting the difference, like maybe running Kaplan and doing UWorld 2x.
Edit: So I've edited the poll to be more inclusive of everyone, lol. The last option was supposed to say "I'm a god", but it won't let me change it. Whatever, lol.
