What our students are saying
Kaplan was vital to my USMLE Step 1/Step 2 CK preparation and provided me with a concrete basis to excel in all USMLE exams. The Step 1 Qbank was absolutely terrific and was an integral part of my study routine.

Kaplan teachers provide the refresher materials I needed to know. They created an interactive online class and gave points which could only have come from veteran teachers. They also gave success tips at each lecture and answered questions.
