I used it, found the disclaimer about answering 50-60% correctly as being "highly competitive" and to not be discouraged by it pretty interesting. It probably goes a bit more in depth than the actual step 2, but you know, that's gonna vary from question to question. I had a chance to look at a few questions from kaplan and in comparison, found it more challenging. but that's just a personal opinion. bottom line, i don't regret using it.

hope this helps.

ya its way more specific than the actual test.....but it gives you really good explanations for the answers.....its more of a study tool than an actual representation of the real test.....but it is very good overall

I used Kaplan Step II QBank and thought it was very similar to the content of the test, with great explanations, and a slightly higher degree of difficulty than the real thing. The real Step II question stems are shorter and often the answer choices were easier to eliminate.
