I recently had the privilege of taking (or 'sitting for', if you prefer the formal style) the NBME shelf test for medicine. This gave me the privilege of doing (or 'suffering') about 1200 USMLE World questions in medicine to try to get prepared for that test. It may have kinda worked - results are outstanding as of right now.
I like UWorld, but she is a fickle mistress. You need to be in the right mindset to deal with it. There is a pretty dastardly mix of questions that are 1/2 hard, 1/4 easy, and 1/4 tricky (which look like easy questions right up until you get them wrong). And there are certain keywords that pretty much guarantee a widowmaker steeped in apocrypha.
Maybe there are immigrant orphan IV drug users that get better than 18th century medical care - they are not heavily represented in the Q-banks.
