Thread: UWSA questions

Hi all,

Can someone give me some insight as to how the UWSA questions compare to Kaplan, the UW question bank and the real USMLE itself?

I've the done one UWSA and some of the questions were ridiculously easy....the UW qbank definitely did not have such easy questions. Does that mean the UWSA is meant to be closer to the real thing?

For those who have written the step 1 AND UWSA....any insight? Is a a score btwn 50% to 60% on each block of the UWSA decent to at least pass the real exam?

Thanks!

what is uwsa???

USMLE world self assessments tests....they are set up like the NBME (ie: 4 blocks of 48 Qs....except NBME is 50 Qs I believe)....but similar idea nonetheless

However, UWSA comes with explanations to each Q.
