From a foreign non-US IMG point of view As a non-US IMG who is completely foreign to the USMLEs and test taking strategies, I highly appreciated the program. I believe what Dr. Naik and his team have created is very beneficial. His test taking class was what really blew my mind. I had never seen someone answer questions correctly and so quickly. And they way he dissects the vignettes to draw out the very important clues to help you answer questions is pretty awesome. The 6 week course is fast but efficient. You really have to follow their rules in terms of studying the topics taught in class after the class is over for it to be effective for you. I also want to give a shout out to my tutor. The one-on-one sessions was what helped me be more confident. We made plans strategically, focused on weak areas, filled in knowledge gaps and worked very hard in improving my test taking skills. I had never done multiple choice questions from where I did medical school so it was challenging for me but this course really helped me on that. Highly recommend. No frills or bs.

Survivor’s Course is a comprehensive Survivor’s Course is a comprehensive, student-focused, on-demand virtual USMLE prep course for the USMLE Step 1, Step 2 CK , Step 3. This course is an excellent approach in preparing for any of the USMLE challenging exams. The course covers the most important topics in detail, are also well thought-out to the extent of including both Exam Taking skills sections and individualized weekly tutoring opportunities. After completing 6 weeks of this course, and working with a tutor, my NBME score increased by 32 points. Dr. Niak’s Survivor’s Course should definitely be your first choice if you want to improve your ability to do well on USMLE exams.

I took this course for comp and step 1 I took this course for comp and step 1. Honestly, I’ve learned so much, from medical knowledge to test taking skills. This course helped me for my cas exams as well. Dr. Naik does a great job teaching and makes it fun and interactive. The way he teaches makes the information interesting and memorable. His test taking skills sessions were really helpful. Every question that I do, I always do it his way of starting to read the bottom of the vignette first, and then starting from the top. Before I took his course, my average was around 50s and then during his course, my average instantly became high 60s to low 70s. I definitely recommend his course because it helped me improve so much. It made me comfortably pass med 4 compared to the previous semesters, where I was struggling. I just passed step 1 using the techniques that I was taught in this course. I appreciate all the help Dr. Naik provided me which strengthened my knowledge and test taking skills. I am definitely taking him for step 2 and step 3.

Trust the Process Survivor’s Course is genuinely the best prep course you can find. I’ve used all the other resources a medical student can use, but none of them connect the medical knowledge and simplify the information the way Dr. Vijay Naik and the tutors do. I joined the live course for USMLE step preparation, took their guidance, and saw a rapid change in my scores. I highly recommend that if you need help with boards, take the live course!

Excellent Dr. Naik truly knows the art of teaching and knows where a student’s weakness his. The course is complete, to the point and very well made. The live lectures are fun and very well taught. I will recommend this Survivors Courses for all USMLE, MCQE exams, and personal statements. Thank you to all the tutors and especially Dr. Naik!
