BuzzwordDx is board prep stripped down to what actually sticks: the buzzwords. See "boot-shaped heart," tap Tetralogy of Fallot, feel the combo streak grow — that's the whole game, and it's weirdly hard to put down. Race the clock in Rapid Fire, work backward in Reverse mode, connect pairs in Matching, or hunt terms in Word Search across 10 specialties, from Cardiology to Neurology to OMM. Every answer feeds a built-in SM-2 spaced repetition engine (the same algorithm behind Anki), so the diagnoses you miss come back right when you're about to forget them. Earn critical hits, build daily streaks, unlock achievements, and climb from "First Game" to "Future Attending" — one buzzword at a time. Made for med students, PA and NP students, and anyone who'd rather feel the dopamine than fight the textbook.
