Arpit was great a great tutor! He gave me high yield points for my exams and taught me how to work through questions. He was always available to work through my challenges. It was great working with him!

Ace Med Boards has been a great experience so far. I have not finished test taking but from the moment I reached out someone was available and returned my messages immediately. I was quickly set up with a tutor to meet my available times. Gleb was a great tutor and able to explain concepts I did not fully understand as well help me develop test taking skills. Would definitely recommended!

Dr. Saxena goes above and beyond when it comes to tutoring. He took time to break down questions and teach the important concepts simultaneously. Dr. Saxena was fantastic and I would recommend anyone preparing for the USMLE/NBOME Board Exams to go with Ace Med Boards!

Ace Med Boards played a big role for me in my step 1 journey. I took an entire year off to take my step 1 exam, and working with Kelvin was a game changer. Not only did he help me implement a strategy that definitely got me points on test day, but also helped me increase my confidence within myself. I had a really weak foundation and felt that Kelvin was very patient with me and helped me fill in those gaps. If you are feeling lost regarding step 1 or struggle with standardized test taking, I highly recommend you use Ace Med Boards.

Ace Med Boards truly helped me at a time where I needed it the most. Step 1 is a no joke. I was struggling with test taking strategies and Ace helped me out tremendously. Kelvin was an amazing tutor. He guided me through questions, helped me eliminate answer choices, and overall was someone that helped me with my confidence for this exam. He makes sure that you know what you are doing and not just randomly picking answers. My sisters recommended this tutoring service to me and they swore by it and they weren’t wrong. If you are someone who needs guidance with test taking strategies and content, this is the best of the best tutoring.

I reached out to Acemed when I exhausted all other options and just needed that extra push to help me up. They were kind enough to reach out super fast and Mohit got in touch with me and set me up with my tutor Kelvin. He was basically godsend , because he helped me tackle questions with a different view all together and helped me put stuff together conceptually than base solely on memorisation. He helped with my speed and was always ready to answer questions that i had. He insisted on me not doubting my process and that helped me so much on exam day. All in all , I had such a great time and I feel like it was the best last minute decision that I made and I'm super glad to have gotten Kelvin as my tutor.

I was in desperate need of a tutor in preparation of both step 1 and 2. Mohit and Kelvin were both incredibly supportive and made the lessons enjoyable. I was challenged to think in a systematic manner, and the schedules the ACE team provide solidify the method. Tutoring sessions consist of talking through 10-15 uworld questions and help you identify errors in your thinking and knowledge gaps. Schedules are given in 2 week intervals with valuable feedback after every practice exam. The schedules can be customized upon request to suite rotations and other obligations. Kelvin often went out of his way to reach out and check on my progress. He even shared advice on the residency application process. His sincerity is evident in his encouragement when you’ve hit rough patch and shared excitement with your success. I know the price is high, especially considering all the $ we drop already, but absolutely worth it if you’re in need of guidance and accountability. The plans are actually cheaper than other options, there’s also a generous discount if you buy 2 packages (payment plans upon request, hours can be used towards any of your exams and don’t expire).

I graduated from the US MD school in 2023. In the 2022–2023 match season, I applied to every psychiatry program in the country and did not match. Even during soap, I did not find any available positions. After soap, I found a preliminary internal medicine position that I took, with the intention of reapplying to psychiatry. At the beginning of the 2023–2024 season, I was applying to all psychiatry programs in the country once again. At this point, I decided to take the help of this organization. I was really conflicted, because first there were many organizations that claimed to offer this kind of support and second – I knew that I had done an application before, so I knew what to do. So, I questioned myself whether I should actually be seeking the help of an organization like this. Reflecting back on this decision, I am 100% satisfied, and so glad that I took the help of this organization. They basically allowed me to get low, hanging fruit, and embellish my application, in ways that I had not thought of. Their entire process was very smooth for me. Someone was always available to help. They found people from within the specialty I wanted to go to in to – psychiatry. Even the mock interview was so helpful. It helped get the nerves out before the real thing. And I felt I was on fire, and all my interviews were golden just because I had gotten all the nervousness out on the mock interview. they were also so helpful in writing letters of recommendation. Obviously, it is known that when a resident is applying to another program, their program director’s letter of recommendation is really important. My program Director was really busy, and kept delaying this process until pretty much the last day. And on the last day, I offered him that I work with this organization that can draft letters of recommendation, and if he would feel comfortable with me, providing him with that. He was actually so relieved and so happy about this. The organization wrote a letter within less than 12 hours for me. I was in the unusual position of getting offered a spot out of match this last month. I had a majority of my interviews still piled up. So in accepting this position, I would’ve had to give up all the rest of my interviews. But this was a guaranteed position. When making this hard decision, I called the advisor that I worked with for my application review. Even though it’s not listed as his job criteria in our plan, he was so happy to talk to me and go over the details of this decision with me. It was nice because I knew he was not biased, and had no benefit from choosing either path. So he truly was just trying to help me out and make the best decision. I worked with two really really great people. I would recommend anyone to use this organization. One of the things I heard when I signed up was that they were so glad I came to them the second time I was reapplying. They said that it’s really hard when someone comes to them after applying five or six times before. The match is an intense and traumatic process. I needed this kind of support. Before I signed up to work with this organization, I would get a lot of anxiety while working on my application and end up delaying things to last minute. They really saved me and just took over everything and helped me review all my documents and application materials, one by one. What I realized was – of course I was paying for the advice and expertise of preparing the residency application, but what I got the most out of this process was support and a shoulder to lean on as I navigated this intense process. I also must commend this organization for being really professional. They were respectful and available. I am aware that this is a business. And so I was very cautious of not extending past what I had agreed to purchase from them in terms of services. My only advice to anyone looking to work with this organization or any other organization like this, is that make sure you don’t treat them as your therapist. Please be really respectful of these people. They have their own obligations, and they can’t drop everything to emotionally comfort you and nor should they. My experience was while I was gently encouraged throughout the process, the time I paid for mostly focused on improving my application documents. Great response time anytime I needed to work with either the organization or the advisor I have been paired with. Thank you ace med boards so much.
