Kaplan or UWorld?

[MrPopeye]

I have been using Kaplan for quite some time. My grades used to be terrible, but have improved quite a bit. For example, I just took question trainer #4 and got a 70.7. But now that my grades have improved, the rationales seem to be lacking for me. I have read a hit in here about how great UWorld's rationales are and was wondering if I should drop Kaplan and study with UWorld. I test in 13 days. Any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I did Kaplan and failed twice I love UWORLD way more detailed and understanding. I will keep you updated on my results, Pray for me my exam is tomorrow I feel much more confident!

[MrPopeye]

Good luck! You've got this! How have your scores been on UWorld?

My scores were low 40's when I started on December 1st and now 60's and higher I'm telling you UWORLD is the best in my opinion

I just started UWorld a week ago. I've gotten two tests in the 40's, one this morning with 11 of 20 questions as SATA! But the average was only 41, so I still scored about it. All other scores have been mid 50's to mid 70's.

I also like the fact it get you ready for the SATA questions, I used to be scared of them now I'm ready

I'm a Kaplan grad but UWorld is the bomb.Unfortunately I did not pass on my 1st attempt, but I have learned alot from UWorld & now know I must read all rationales. Good luck to everyone testing soon.
