Qbank Scores

Congratulations on Passing !!!

Now for a question

What do you guys think?

Regarding Qbank (eg. USMLEWorld, Kaplan) scores being an indication of doing well on Step 1 - do your scores doing the Qbanks the second time around mean anything? I mean if you do USMLEWORLD the first time and get terrible scores but do it again after studying the answers and get decent scores is that indicative that you learned material you had to and you'll be okay or just that you remembered answers and that it doesn't mean anything?

One of the reasons I'm asking this is because I was wondering whether starting USMLEWorld even without finishing studying properly would "waste" the qbank as a valuable resource and indicator of doing well on step 1. Seeing how important you guys think it is I'm tempted to start it ASAP.
