The USMLE Success Academy and its Team of MDs (the Success Academy is the only USMLE Prep Program in the Nation that exclusively uses MDs that have taken and passed all the USMLE exams to create and teach its curriculum) invite you to discover exactly how we take medical students from all types of backgrounds and qualifications and turn them into high scoring Step 1 success stories with our Online & Live Step 1 Preparation Programs. With an over 98% student success rate and being rated as the #1 Step 1 Program on this Forum, the Success Academy is a medical student's best option for achieving success on the Step 1 exam and beyond.

WHY DO I NEED A STEP 1 PREPARATION PROGRAM?

It is nearly impossible to accumulate and gather all the required materials, to prepare an effective study plan that covers all the necessary material, and to discipline yourself day-in and day-out to accomplish the task of conquering the Step 1 exam without the guidance of a trusted preparation program. During medical school, your basic science courses were generally taught from a different perspective than how the information is being tested on the Step 1 exam. With these obstacles faced by students in mind, the Success Academy's Team of MDs created Online & Live Step 1 Preparation Programs that provide students with the required material and the vital tools needed to conquer the Step 1 exam.

ABOUT THE ONLINE STEP 1 PREPARATION PROGRAM:

We designed our comprehensive, high-yield Online Step 1 Program specifically for students that need strengthening of their Basic Sciences foundation and High-Yield knowledge. Unlike every other online USMLE program on the market that simply tape their live lectures and sell them as an "online" program, we developed an exclusive Online Program from the ground-up that provides students with informative, engaging, and fun lectures specifically tailored for success on the Step 1 exam regardless of a student's background and training! Our Online program is user-friendly, the exclusive material and curriculum are taught in an easy-to-absorb format, and, more importantly, highly effective at providing you with exactly what you need to succeed on the Step 1 exam without all the unnecessary extraneous information included in other basic review programs. Our Online Program has been created by our Team of MDs using each and every aspect of the 'testable material' as set by the USMLE organization so students can rest assured that they are on the right path towards their Step 1 exam success.

Hi Dr. Albert, we've actually changed strictly to 4-5 day CS programs. Many students who were coming for our 2-day programs regularly decided to come back for the following weekend, so we decided it made more sense to stick to the longer format for everyone. If you are registered or have considered registering for the 2-day, feel free to contact me: paul@usmlesuccess.net and we can work something out for you.

Thanks for your inquiry.

If you're looking for self-study options to supplement this, I'd recommend getting a question bank. I personally like USMLE-Rx, and you can find other forums that discuss the pros and cons of it and other Qbanks out there.

Our school got a code to sign up for USMLE-Rx, expiring this Thursday, June 5th. The code is SUNYDOWNQMAX1 & it's $99 for 12-month subscription, which you can buy now and activate up to 6 months later if you prefer to wait. It's normally $200, so definitely a steal.

Better rely on known sources for USMLE preparation?

Relying on a strategy, e.g. a QBank, that worked for many students before isnt a bad idea, or? I used the standard stuff like (kaplan, usmleworld or rexmedicus), as does everybody else and it turned out sufficient. I scored high. The USMLE is not a mystery in my opinion. I mainly just did MCQs.

NBME Assessment test

I see so many different tests and notice the different comments on which one to first, last etc…
Can someone explain what this is really saying? shouldn't we do the same on all the test? what is the point is tests being easier than others? I would expect for them all to cover the same overall material??? this is a bit confusing.
