UWorld USMLE Reviews

Best bank ever

cheenicheeni

Helped me get a 270+ on step 1 hoping for same on step two. The bank seems even more critical for step two due to the lack of good review books. Keep up good work uworld!!! You put all other banks to shame

I just got rocked

Love me some uworld. Best qbank there is. Worth the money, but is medicine worth the pain?

Too many bugs, reported but never fixed

I have reported bugs with highlighting, scrolling, the magnifier, and many other problems with this app through the Uworld Support email. Still no changes every time the app updates with bug fixes. The content in UWorld is amazing, but the iPad and iPhone app suffer from the same issues (again, highlighting, scroll glitching when you highlight too close to the top of the page, and highlighter button going missing if you highlight too fast), and I can’t give a good rating to this app when the developers are doing NOTHING to fix these issues. Already reported these bugs to the developers through email, nothing changes.

Review for iPad app

link981

This review is for the iPad app. The content is amazing. The issue is that when I pick an answer to a question and go to the next question, it automatically selects the letter I had chosen for my previous question. Also when doing 10 question tests, on reviews I haved noticed that the app changed my answer sometimes. Please fix

When will be able to use the apple pencil to quickly highlight?

Highlighting right now is very cumbersome. Have been waiting for fully functional apple pencil for a long time. It will really help us get through questions more efficiently!

Convenient

CSBeast

The app is nice to have but would be GREAT if there was a flash card option that was automatically generated based on questions and topics that were answered incorrectly. Many residents use a program during the day to quickly look through flash cards and makes me wish uworld had this.

Can’t see % UWorld completed

Aaaaaaaabnm

Great app! The only huge problem I have is that it doesn’t let me see how much of UWorld I’ve completed or left to do!!! Please add this.

The best qBank for step1, but not the best app...

Uworld has the market cornered as far as step 1 preparation goes. Their questions and explanations are in general, excellent. However, the app is kinda buggy. It freezes fairly often (more than once a week) and sometimes resets the timer for no apparent reason.

Mis-registering answer selections

DeafManListens

I have noticed that for every 40-question block I submit, I receive an initial score that corresponds to the answers I actually selected. When I log in at a later time, it gives me a completely different overall score for the block and displays that I selected answers that I did not in fact select. This makes it very difficult to track my progress- both overall and in specific subjects. I paid $500 for this service and I expect it to work.

Needs work on two basic things

1. The highlight has to be corrected its to difficult to select then touch highlight when you are answering timed. Should add a highlight button that touching=highlight anytime you touch text while still allowing to select answer/scroll. Also can add apple pencil support for the highlighting being easier and being similar to a mouse on the computer, that way you can read easily while highlighting quickly with the pencil. 2. The lab values floating window has to go already, do the same sidebar as the computer version please, it’s prettying counterproductive not being able to read while checking values fluently/scrolling to the answers etc. like in the computer uworld. This are pretty much the two biggest things that everyone I know dislike about the mobile app making them not use it at all and if they are fixed it would make it a way more useful practice/learning tool and i would use it probably more than the computer version.
