Overall good but infrequent small mistakes

Overall good and very helpful for a resident studying for the Core exam, but there are a few errors that distract from the learning process and means that I can't immediately trust the answers explanations. Some of the errors are simple (wrong answer choice is considered correct, typos that result in no actual correct answer present), but present enough that it is distracting.

Also, the answer explanation box obscures the answer choices so it becomes hard to see why you may have chosen an incorrect answer and if you were to go back to a previous question in a block, you can't pull up the explanation again.

Error riddled

Overall a decent app but the amount of mistakes make a confusing topic even harder at times.

Content good. iPad app bad

Very very bad app design for the iPad. Shame because the content is good. If you are going to buy this, use on your phone. I hope you have a big phone.

Okayish app

Need correction to few answers. Two correct options has been given in some of the questions & the explanations for some the answers have mistakes.

Good questions. Full of errors.

Good app for learning, but there are a good amount of errors where the question tells you that you got it wrong, but the explanation indicates that you are correct. This could definitely benefit from some editing.

Needs update

Latest iPhone update 16.4.1 broke the app , answer submit button disappearing amongst other issues.

Fantastic Resource

This was a fantastic resource! The material is excellent with very few mistakes and was highly relevant for material tested in the CORE exam. I highly recommend this app for anyone prepping for CORE. The app generally worked well on mobile and MacOS.

Too many incorrect questions/answers

As stated by other reviews, a non insignificant number of questions/answers/explanations are just wrong, and if you aren’t privy to that, the app is teaching you false information. Moreover, to the learner of physics with a developing understanding of the material, the frequency of incorrect questions/answer just sows doubt and confusion. Save your money and look elsewhere for a core physics review.

Not worth your hard earned resident money

- lots of errors in the app when it comes to questions and answers
- answers are super irritating in that they most of the time don’t give you the answer to the question, rather a figure it out yourself explanation
- app feels like it’s made by someone who made their first app ever. It’s extremely glitchy, answers don’t always show, it jumps between questions and once you click next it doesn’t allow you to go back and see the answer to the prior question. All you see is the question.
- choices included in questions are not explained

With that said, yes some questions are good. But would I pay for this knowing using the app just by its interface is extremely frustrating? Sorry, no. Save your money and buy yourself a meal on nightfloat instead.

A MUST!

While I agree with other reviews that it would be helpful to be able to select questions by modality (MR, CT, US, etc), ability to answer prior questions that were wrongly answered, etc, for $10 Radiology Core Physics app is A STEAL!!! Just Under $10 you are almost guaranteed to pass the physics portion of the core exam and really the entire exam (since that section is usually the one that fails people)!

The questions are written elegantly - the person who wrote it really knows what he/she is talking about, not just thinklesly copying concepts from books and making question out of them! Great job and THANK YOU!

P.S.

I think it’s useful to do these questions before even one starts hard core physics studying, so that one could tune in the brain what to concentrate on. Then do it later again to solidify the material!
