Sketchy is underrated, fun, and engaging Sketchy is the sole reason I passed Step 1. My brain just can’t absorb things it doesn’t find engaging. While other sources might have helpful tables and take less time to run over things, they all just seem like the same lecture over and over to me. Sketchy makes me laugh and makes learning fun—I don’t think you’re ever so old that learning being fun isn’t important.

Sketchy is truly a gift to medical students! Sketchy is truly a gift to medical students. The videos are very informative, but the sketches are just another level of genius. The sketches especially Sketchy Micro, Sketchy Pharm, and Sketchy Path are beautifully done. It contains all the relevant information medical students need to know. And the videos are condensed enough to capture all the high yield material. Along with the subscription, there are also quizzes that go with the sketches. These quizzes are also legit; high yield information testing what you actually retained from the videos. I have zero regrets purchasing Sketchy. It’s a creative, effective, and powerful way to learn ridiculously dense subjects like micro and pharm!

If I could have one external resource, it would be Sketchy There are so many external resources that you can use to help you through medical school. If I could go back in time to first year, I would have wanted to know about Sketchy. It has helped me tremendously and the things that I learned months ago are still with me today. Sketchy makes learning fun and hard to forget. I definitely recommend it for any medical student.

One of the best resource for the Steps Overall a great resource. Did it for my weakest subject (Microbiology) for the Step 1 exam. My exam has been long over but I still haven't forgotten the sketches. The sketches have been prepared well to cover the topics and they stick well.

Sketchy is one of the best resources a… Sketchy is one of the best resources a medical student (or other student! see their products) can have! It is excellent in providing a big "picture" of topics that may otherwise be difficult to commit to memory or provide brain space for. If you are hesitant, please know that I had a 4.0 for the entirety of my second year in school and did well on Step 1 because of this website!! I even am able to answer questions on rounds/with my attendings because the memory devices stick so well.
