Give This Girl Some Room! I started off making the same score on every COMP exam, and I could not shake it. The PASS Program made me feel welcomed into the family. They gave me hope and helped me regain my confidence back! Dr. Francis has taught me patterns which is how my brain works! I hate memorizing facts. I always need to know the how and why to understand information and boyyyyy Dr. Francis has definitely straightened up my thinking. With Dr. Francis 5-step approach to questions, my score on my COMP exams have improved! I am answering questions much better and I know my biochemistry and physiology so much better! I've been empowered!

I learned so much from Dr. Francis. He took his time and taught us how to THINK and answer questions without memorization! I was literally blown away with being able to learn 5-10 diseases in 15 minutes simply on recalling “normal findings.” I highly recommend the morning questions and prep course! You will not regret it!! Dr. Francis is engaging, motivating, and dedicated to his students. I will be back for Step 2 and beyond! Thank you pass program for restoring my confidence and enthusiasm for medicine!!

PASS program has truly empowered me. I have learned so much and matured in my thinking as an inspiring physician. I am a more organized thinker which has allowed me to answer more questions correctly with the correct understanding. Most importantly, the program gave me the hope I needed to know that I can still do it with the proper conditioning. Very thankful!! Words can’t explain how grateful I am.

I think this course was extremely helpful, the way Dr. Francis breaks things down is incredible. Rather than memorizing things, he helps you understand the basics and builds on that to teach you where and why things go wrong. If I had been taught this way from the beginning, I don't think I would have struggled as much throughout my first 2 years of medical school. Every single day, my mind was blown by the connections made in this course. Dr. Francis truly cares about students' success and I will forever be grateful to him for being able to share his knowledge.

I found the PASS program to be very helpful. Thank you Dr. Francis.

Although initially skeptical about the usefulness of the PASS program, I was thoroughly impressed. This was more than a content review program, rather, it was a solidification of the pattern thinking that merges medical sciences with practical disease pathology. I feel that my medical sciences foundation have solidified and I am able to identify important disease patterns rather than memorize facts. I appreciate Dr. Francis and his approach to lecturing and instilling these skills in PASS students. He was very engaged, energetic and was genuinely excited about medicine. He had a lot of patience with students and helped to consistently bring up previous material that were taught to further aid in the storage of that information into longer term memory. There was a strategic pattern into the format of the class and the way it was taught. The content itself was very high yield information and updated with current guidelines. I appreciate the supplemental lecture, TAs, and tutors that have all made this a wonderful experience. Everyone was genuinely interested in helping students become better learners

A whole new way of understanding medicine.

Initially, I honestly thought this program would probably not be useful or helpful. It’s probably an extra thing the school was forcing us to do. The fact that it was going to take full days worth of class time, I was dreading it. However, just the first day had me blown away!! I am more of a conceptual learner than a memorizer so my problem with the material was just that which is why I have to retake the comp. Dr. Francis teaches conceptually rather than memorization. And I LOVE THAT!!! The way Dr. Francis broke the concepts down and made it easier to understand the how and why, is what makes understanding and remembering these concepts so much easier. I am extremely glad I chose to stick to this program and make the best I can of it. It’s long and exhausting but Dr. Francis makes it fun by integrating funny scenarios or stories that not only make you laugh but also makes you remember things better. I have been improving my understanding day by day. Although there is still a lot of review and get down, i know that it is making a difference In the way I read and comprehend questions. I just have to go back and review the material again to make sure I know it well enough so that I can continue to improve my knowledge base as well as my test score. Thank you so much for a great experience and I cannot wait to the next 5 weeks and really have all this material down!! I’m looking forward to tackle this comp and STEP!
