This App is Phenomenal

I’m an old graduate and I find this tool absolutely amazing. It’s an adaptive learning tool for the learner who needs extra assistance. It’s better then all of them out there.

Incredible app for USMLE

This app works smoothly for the tablet and is the best app I have ever found. It’s way better than Uworld or Marrow. I am preparing for NEETPG as well as USMLE. So this is the most affordable as well as the best features app.

Response from developer

Thank you, HarshG2! We’re thrilled that Oncourse AI is working smoothly on your tablet and supporting your NEET PG and USMLE preparation. Wishing you great success in both exams!

Excellent customer service

Updating my previous review regarding money deduction without subscription. The team cooperated and have excellent customer service. They are not scammers at all. I got my refund.

Response from developer

Hi, sorry you had this experience. We have already shared the steps to get a refund with you. We don’t control cancellations or refunds directly, as they are managed by Apple. Please follow those steps in your Apple account, and Apple will process it based on their policy.

Way better than Uworld or Amboss

This app helped me get a 278 on Step2 and it was much more useful and way cheaper than UWorld or AMBOSS

Best app

Response from developer

That means a lot to us! We’re happy to have you studying with Oncourse AI and wish you the very best for NEET PG.

Incredible app for USMLE & NEET-PG

This app works smoothly for the tablet and is the best app I have ever found. It’s way better than Uworld or Marrow. I am preparing for NEETPG as well as USMLE. So this is the most affordable as well as the best features app.

Overpriced and Over-Restricted

This app might be good, but over 90% of the features are locked, essentially forcing users to upgrade to the paid version. It’s also more expensive compared to similar apps.

Response from developer

Hi, thank you for the feedback. We understand pricing can feel like a big decision. Oncourse is paid because most features use continuously updated medical content, AI tutoring, personalization, flashcards, and exam-specific prep tools. That said, we’re always trying to make it more accessible. Please write to us at hello@getoncourse.ai to check if you have the best offer available.

absolute game changer for medical exam prep!

I've been using this app for about 3 months now and honestly, it's been a lifesaver during my exam preparation. The daily quiz feature keeps me engaged every single day - there's something addictive about maintaining that streak! I'm currently at 47 days and don't want to break it.

The lessons with quick exercises make revision so much faster than my old method of study. I can knock out a solid review session during my commute or between clinical rotations.

The topper flashcards are brilliant - whoever curated these really knows what concepts stick in your mind. And the image-based questions? Chef's kiss. I’m a visual learner and finally have something that clicks. Having all the PYQs organized by topic has been incredibly helpful, and the NExT pattern questions feel way more relevant than what I found on Marrow.

I was skeptical at first given how new this app is, but it turned out to be incredible. If you're serious about your medical exams, this is definitely worth the investment. Haven't found anything this well-rounded yet.

This app saved my future

I came across this app when I was at my lowest, I had given up all hope on my exams and studies I was going through reddit one day and found this app. It has been life saviour(literally) it makes it very easy to create flashcards and the concept of daily quizzes is also very cool. Highly recommend this if you are going for NEET PG

Oncourse AI for NEET-PG & USMLE is fantastic!
