good app

great app for revising stuff though its quiet expensive to unlock all flash cards

Inaccurate and not comprehensive

This app is not worth your money for Step One studying. In just a few days of using it, I found multiple flash cards that were simply incorrect. It is also not nearly comprehensive enough to prepare you. There will be 10 cards asking different versions of the same simple concept, and entire major pathologies not mentioned or only referenced in passing.

Best app for USMLE Step 1

If you are preparing for USMLE step 1 exam this is the best app to use. The repetitive manner of the flash cards engraves the information in the mind. It gives you the information bit by bit which makes the most difficult topics easier to digest. It takes you through the entire First Aid book smoothly, even the most complex tables will become, eventually, a piece of cake!
Thank you for this incredible app!
