Have you heard anything about Kaplan and USMLE changing?. A friend told me by an e-mail that USMLE had changed. Are these false rumors? I am afraid because I have had Kaplan Q-bank for three months and I studied all Step I by Kaplan and Goljan.
My friend wrote this:
I just took the usmle and found that the q-bank questions were not helpful as only about 20 percent of the questions were used. I think that you have to study the kaplan books and learn everything as I felt that q-bank was totally off. Study the kaplan books but do not concentrate too much on the qbank questions as although it was good to know all that information my experience was that you have to concentrate on biochemistry, microbiology and molecular biology and physiology.
