Choosing a QBank

How to choose a radiology Core QBank

Radiology residents have more Core exam QBanks to choose from than ever. These are the features that matter most, and how CorePrep approaches each one.

Image quality and interaction

Core is an imaging exam, so text-only questions only go so far. Look for questions built around diagnostic images, ideally with scrollable stacks and questions that ask you to find the abnormality. CorePrep includes both.

Explanations for every option

A good explanation teaches the concept behind the question, not just the correct letter. CorePrep explains the correct answer and each distractor, with teaching pearls and references.

Coverage of the whole exam

Many residents combine an interpretive QBank with separate physics or non-interpretive resources. CorePrep covers Breast, cardiovascular, GI, genitourinary, interventional, musculoskeletal, neuro, nuclear medicine, pediatrics, thoracic, ultrasound, physics, NIS, and RISC in one bank.

Exam-style interface and analytics

Timed mode, flagging, and strikeouts build exam-day habits. Section-level analytics with peer comparison show where to spend your remaining study time. CorePrep includes all of these.

Cost and access

QBank prices vary widely, and many residents use more than one. CorePrep is free for eligible accounts, so it can be your main QBank or a no-cost addition to others.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use CorePrep alongside another QBank?
Yes. Because CorePrep is free for eligible accounts, many residents use it with other resources for more image-based practice.
