We love the C word – ‘Concepts.’ Now, the new C word that we started loving is ‘CBME.’ Yes, our app follows all the content recommended by CBME (Competency-based Medical Education). Dr.Polaris is a one-stop solution, where we provide concepts of Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry for a first-year student along with respective CBME-integrated videos from other years as well. We not only give how to study in first year MBBS but also what to study in first year MBBS as well. Not only first year MBBS, our content coverage extends to other years as well - Second year MBBS subjects – Pathology, Microbiology & Pharmacology, Third year MBBS subjects – ENT, Ophthalmology, Community Medicine/PSM & Forensic Medicine, Fourth year MBBS subjects – General Medicine, General Surgery, Orthopaedics, OBG & Paediatrics.

Concepts are better explained in chalk and talk right? Yes, that’s exactly what we did – Smartboard based video lectures. We also gave special care to ‘how to revise MBBS topics easily’ part, that’s why we developed a one-pager revision note called ‘Flash Notes’ for all the topics, so that each student can finish their quick revision of MBBS topics. Our content creators are doctors, so they know how boring medical learning can get, so they did all they can to make it as entertaining as possible. Our Story Based Learning is just that – entire course of Pharmacology is with animated Story based learning. Trust us, it’s the cheat code for ‘how to remember drug side-effects & mechanism of action easily’. Last but not the least, upcoming doctors needs to see clinical cases.
