Changelog

Create a challenge from any QBank, or turn a test you already took into one. Everyone who joins gets the exact same questions in the exact same set, so the comparison is always fair.

• Full Control: Pick subjects, systems, specific question IDs, mode and timing, just like building a normal test.
• Turn Any Test Into a Challenge: Already crushed a test? Challenge your friends to beat your score on it in one click.
• Fair by Design: The question set is frozen the moment you create it, so no two players ever get a different exam.
• Lifetime members create challenges — and anyone can join and compete for free.

Every challenge gets a clean shareable link. Send it however your study group actually talks, then watch the leaderboard fill up.

• Share via WhatsApp, Telegram, X, email, or a simple copied link.
• Friends who are new to Qbankly can create a free account and jump straight into your challenge.
• Invite by email directly from the challenge page.

A clean leaderboard ranks every player by score, accuracy and time, with your own result always highlighted so you know exactly where you stand.

This is where the real learning happens. A question-by-question grid shows who got each question right, wrong, or skipped, so your group can zero in on the concepts everyone is missing.

• Spot the Toughest Questions: Sort by "hardest first" to find the exact items your group struggles with.
• Per-question Accuracy: See what percentage of players nailed each question at a glance.
• Jump to Review: Open any question you answered directly in your test review to see the full explanation.

We’ve moved beyond raw percentages. Qbankly now utilizes advanced IRT modeling, the same statistical standard used by the USMLE™ and NBME™ boards to ensure your scores reflect true exam capability.

• Weighting by Difficulty: Harder questions now carry more weight in your overall readiness score.
• Precision Calibration: We account for the specific performance profile of every student to ensure accuracy.
• Statistically Sound Estimates: Our models filter out statistical noise, giving you a score you can actually trust.

Your Dashboard and Reports page are now perfectly synchronized. We've introduced the Board Readiness Card, giving you:

• Estimated USMLE Score: A professional-grade mapping of your clinical ability against actual Step 1/2 distribution thresholds.
• Pass Probability: A scientific estimate of your likelihood to pass today.
• True Percentile Rank: A precise Bell Curve visualization showing exactly where you stand in the global pool.

Stop wasting time on subjects you’ve already mastered. Our new Priority Matrix automatically categorizes your performance into actionable blocks:

• Needs Attention: High-volume subjects where you are underperforming.
• Focus Next: New areas or low-volume subjects that need more practice.
• Mastered: High-score areas where your performance is statistically significant.

Your study focus changes every week, your analytics should too. Our new Competency Radar now prioritizes your most recently studied subjects, giving you a live feedback loop on your current clinical block.

We completely rebuilt our search engine to be instantaneous. You can now search across thousands of textbook pages and find exactly what you need in under a second.

• Highlight Search Terms: Instantly see relevant concepts within your results.
• Quick Snippets: Preview relevant sections without leaving the search view.
• Smarter Context: Find clinical correlations and definitions faster than ever.

Life as a resident doesn't wait. We redesigned the test header to support "Finish Later" workflows, ensuring your progress is always saved if you get interrupted.

• Instant Test Resumption: Resume any pending test directly from your history with a single click.
• Session Protection: Your progress is automatically persisted across all devices.
