USMLE Rx

Hi guys
Is there anyone who have tried the USMLE Rx offered by the authors of First Aids. Is it more useful than Kaplan Q bank or USMLE World
Thanks for your kind response

You will be better doing tommy concepts than paying for that test bank.
UW is much better than that.

Way too many mistakes. Not very efficient. Every test I had at least 1-2 stupid errors on their side (mixed lettered answers). UW is the best.

its amlost a form of libel..something to think about //

its an opinion- get over it!

the general consensus is that World is the better qbank over the rest- you like the opinion use it, don't? feel free to ignore it.
are you a lawyer too? trolling for work? or you have a financial stake in Rx? - is called free speech- SOE can say Rx is worthless if he wants to- its a public forum, you know...

Is that the best you can do ? I know its an opinion , however SOE should add some substance to back up his position . Many students look to the board for advice . UW is the best , everyone knows that , however blindly saying Rx is a waste of time with no supporting reasons is an invalid opinion ..esp for a moderator ..

and no I have No financial stake in Rx ..

A friend of mine used usmlerx and regretted it. He found a number of mistakes and went on to report them. They actually paid him for finding the mistakes........He didn't use UW and told me that he would have defnitely done that instead......

Perhaps rx could be used only after fnishing UW,....but after hearing that I'm not sure if I can trust all the answers from Rx

Good luck everyone
