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.

6 years since step 1, and I still remember Sketchy I am a PGY2 and used Sketchy during medical school, and there is literally nothing I learned during medical school that remains in my memory better than that which i learned through sketchy. Tremendous study tool, arguably no other better way to encode information into the brain (for me, at least). Major props to the sketchy team.

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.

#trusttheprocess sketchy is THE visual textbook for all my preclinical needs! when i know i want to solidify something that i’m struggling with from lecture or need help ~picturing a long pathway in first aid, sketchy is my go to! i’m so so glad sketchy exists & i recommend it to all my incoming med school peers! as a child who never read and watched a lot of tv, i’m so grateful that i’m in school during the Age of Sketchy! it works it work it WORKS!!! #trusttheprocess

Board-Relevant God-given Relief 😅 Watching cartoons is 25x easier to remember than a lecture. The visual aids and silly humor along the way make the sheer masses of information tolerable too. All material was highly board-relevant as well. Lastly, it also sorts and organizes the information in a way that helped me see where things fit big picture. Sometimes I got lost in the weeds in my textbooks/classes, so zooming out and seeing the relevance of these details in the whole picture was helpful, in and of itself. But Sketchy doesn’t skip details - just orients you. 12/10 recommend.
