Major USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 Obstacles with Doing Questions

Throughout my years as a tutor and since the launch of MD Boost, I've observed that a major obstacle for medical students preparing for the USMLE Step 1 or Step 2 exams is the nuance in distinguishing between certain disease processes or diagnoses. More often than not, these seemingly similar conditions are tested against each other in the tests, making them particularly tricky. Having a firm grasp of the symptoms, risk factors, progression, chronicity, and associations can make a significant difference in correctly answering these questions. However, the challenging part is often recognizing which diseases need to be grouped and studied together.

Novel Solution to Picking between Close Differential Diagnoses

After months of meticulous planning and experimenting, my team and I are excited to present a novel feature that will enable medical students from year one to four (MS1-MS4) to study the key differences in similar disease processes based on chief complaints. This unique feature allows students to discern the distinctions between diseases that may initially seem similar. For the first time, they can explore these conditions side by side, revealing significant differences. This approach will aid in building a differential diagnosis earlier, a vital skill that physicians exercise daily.

Holistically Study Diseases through Multiple Active Modes of Studying

This innovative feature not only allows you to compare related diseases, but it also offers diverse study methods including flashcards, high-yield notes, 1st and 2nd order questions, and direct comparison notes. No such feature has ever been created until now, and we are thrilled to include it in MD Boost. It's the first in a series of exciting features we're planning.
