I just recently found out that I passed my Step 1 Exam. I'm thankful that I was able to be a part of this prep course because it not only gave me structure for my studies, but it also kept me interactively learning while working through questions in a group setting. I was thankful that I had Irshan as a teacher through this course because he pushed us to have a deeper understanding of concepts by not just explaining them in his own words, but having us explain why we chose certain answers to questions to see how we were thinking and reasoning. Looking back, this really helped me because it made me realize that if I wasn't able to explain the concept in my own words to teach someone else, then I probably didn't really have a good understanding even if I thought I did on my own. I was able to form a small study group which also was a great help to review what we did each day in class, and helped bring a different perspective for different concepts. All in all, I am thankful I completed my Step 1 exam and can move on to clinical rotations. When I came in to the course, I had been unsuccessful in my COMP (pre-test for Step 1), and by the end of the class I passed my COMP and later my Step 1. God is so good! I am beyond thankful for Irshan and this course for giving me the extra push I needed to keep up with this process and complete it successfully!

Best decision I've ever made. Extremely helpful and always give full support. Highly recommended to everyone wanting to do this damned exam.

It was a great experience and I passed my CS with high performance. Dr.Somas works really hard to bring out the best in you. He understands how important this exam is for IMGs. I would highly recommend it to everyone. I big thank you to the entire fraternity at the NYCS center.

Dr Somas is a great teacher. We were about 30 students during the 3 day course but it felt like a one-on-one course. He knew everyone by name and showed interest in our individual progress. He makes you feel you can do it no matter what you think of yourself. I can go on and on. He is up to date with current trends of the exam and gives you timeless guidelines for patient interviews and examination. I passed my exam after this course. My effort and grace counted but I feel Dr Somas also played a huge part in my success as well. I highly recommend this course to anyone seeking to pass the CS exam!

dr Somma is very knowledgable. you get to practice not only physical exam, but different complex cases!

This course helped me a lot in my preparation for Step2 CS. They gave us tips to ace the test, and also Dr. Somas is amazing and he was very helpful, he reviewed my patient notes regularly until the day of my test. The staff and the SP's were very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend it!!!

Dr Somas teachs you a systematic way to tackle the step 2 CS exam. Including what questions to ask, how to do physical exam, how to write the patient note. Because the course is just 3 days, with the last day being the mock exam, you dont get enough practice from just doing the course. What really makes this course valuable is the ability to keep coming to the center and practice until the date of your exam.

This was a fantastic course and excellent preparation for the exam. It was especially useful as an international medical graduate (UK) to learn what is expected in this exam, as there are many potential pitfalls of which I would have been otherwise unaware. It was also great to find a community of people going through the exam at the same time, and through this course I found a revision buddy and friends! Finally, this represents excellent value. Thanks Dr Somas.
