Here's what's included
Medgeeks Learning Strategies: we'll show you how to get the most from each studying session. This will allow you to learn more in less time. Don't study another disease without first going through this training.
.Test Anxiety Training: after all the work you've put into your studies, we'd hate for you to fall short the day of the exam because of test anxiety. If you've ever felt nervous before or during an exam, then you'll want to get your hands on this training.
.High-Yield Medicine: 30+ hours of high yield review covering diseases in every organ system (diagnosis, workup, management). See our curriculum below.
.Pharmacology Mastery: 10+ hours of high yield pharmacology review (190 classes of medications). This is additional training that builds upon the high-yield medicine curriculum. See our curriculum below.
.Always Up-To-Date: Our material is reviewed and updated every year. Have a question about something in our review? Send us an email and we'll have our clinical professors provide clarification!
High-Yield Medicine Curriculum
