Exactly What I Was Looking For!
I PASSED MY STEP 1 EXAM ON MY FIRST TRY! I am a fourth-year medical student in the Philippines and I purchased your STEP 1 PASS/FAIL course earlier this year to supplement my STEP 1 studying after attending one of your free webinars. I was struggling with answering UWorld questions even though I had studied most of the material for STEP 1 already. Your course gave me the confidence boost I needed especially in the last few weeks of my preparation. The way you integrate all the different high-yield concepts for each system is exactly how people should be studying medicine and preparing for the STEP exams. For someone who is on the fence about buying your PASS/FAIL course, I'd tell them that your course is perfect for the student who has already covered the majority of the material but is still struggling with answering practice questions and integrating the material. Your STEP 1 PASS/FAIL course is also short enough that it is a great last-minute review of the most high-yield things to know that a student could go through in 2-4 weeks' time. Your course was well worth the (more than affordable) price and I am looking forward to purchasing your course for the USMLE STEP 2CK exam. Again, thank you so much, Dr. Damania! Keep up the excellent work! Gilbert Tagufa Manila Central University College of Medicine '24

Congratulations on passing Step 1 on your first try, Gilbert! I’m thrilled the Pass/Fail course, after those webinars, helped build your confidence and connect the high-yield concepts when UWorld questions felt difficult. Thank you for trusting HyGuru, and I’m wishing you continued success through medical school and beyond.
