WHAT TOPICS ARE COVERED AND WHEN?
The following breakdown of topic discussion applies to In Person, Live Online, and Online, On Demand Step 1 Preparation Courses:
All the subjects in all of our Step 1 Courses are strategically placed in an order that builds upon the material from each previous lecture. By following our particular sequence of lectures, you will build the requisite, rock-solid foundation on which all of the remaining basic sciences and clinical sciences will be taught. This strategy not only exposes students to the most important material that will likely be tested on the Step 1 exam, but it gives them the tools they need in order to learn how to derive information when the entire picture is still unclear; a skill needed to score well on the USMLE’s, as well as being an effective medical student, medical resident, and clinician.
NOTE: While we do not cover Pharmacology and Pathology as individual subjects, they are covered thoroughly throughout the entirety of the Courses in order to mimic the way students are tested on the NBME, CBSE, COMLEX, and Step 1 exams.
PART 1 (Introductory Principles of Medicine):
Part 1 is dedicated entirely to arming students with the important basics that they need to succeed in all other aspects of medicine. Much of the information taught during part 1 is usually overlooked in the Step 1 review courses on market, but it is essential that students have a firm grasp on these topics as it will help them answer many USMLE questions that assume that students already understand this information. Most students will struggle with a good portion of the USMLE exam simply because they don’t know how to apply the basic concepts in medicine – and this results in failures and poor scores. Our Step 1 Preparation Program ensures our students are equipped with a solid understanding of the basic concepts in medicine so that they can succeed on the USMLE exams, as well as into their clinical years.
