Bad and lying Absolutely not worth the price; spend your money on UWorld, Sketchy, Osmosis, AMBOSS, Boards and Beyond, Pathoma, Kaplan, whatever. I bought the 4 week Step 1 "live" masterclass. Lectures: I signed up for a live course in order to have an outside class to attend to keep me on track because I have issues with ADHD, so admittedly it served its purpose there, but I could have gotten the same experience from any Step 1 prep course. I have suspicions that these "live" classes are actually pre-recorded and the company uses poorly concealed tricks to make it seem live. There is a live chat where you can ask questions and they will be answered. But the answers aren't very nuanced. Additionally the chat is probably filled with bots pretending to be real students, they ask the most basic questions to mimic engagement and constantly praise the class with comments like "Dr Adesina where have you been I'm really enjoying this lecture". The chatbots are sometimes off sync and talking about completely different subjects than what the lecture you're watching is about. It's overall very skeevy. The lectures themselves are alright, though are often just reading off of First Aid. Question bank/quizzes: terrible. Questions are poorly organized and sometimes out of order, or will refer to a vignette/picture that... isn't included. They are probably pulled from outside qbanks/review books. Explanations are frequently lacking as well. It does not have any of the functionalities of other qbanks to mimic the real USMLE exams: no highlighting, no crossing out answer choices, no reference values, no flagging or searching for questions... You'd think the quiz would at least match the content of the associated video lecture but they don't... Personal tutor: probably the most helpful resource, but you should be able to get something similar from your medical school's academic help services

I think it misses some important topics… I think it misses some important topics and when I sent them an email about that issue no body responded

Don't recommend Smashusmle. Unfortunately, I don't recommend Smashusmle. Doctor Adesina is really passionate about his work, but the quality of the videos needs to improve. As Qbank does not have a proper format, some explanations are unclear or insufficient. Daily questions provided through whatsapp are delivered daily with the correct repost at the end of the day. However, if there are questions for clarification after the final answer at the end of the day, the host does not respond in chat, helping the doctor better understand the vignette or answer. The tutor was the best resource, which I highly recommend. I used the program for 9 months, wishing I had bought another comprehensive Qbank like Uworld or used another resource to better individually access my needs.

Review step1 The videos have no quality, people have just recorded at their home using white board. I wish the content was as good as thier marketing & selling strategies. Save your money!

I got smash usmle step 1 course for… I got smash usmle step 1 course for free and I must say some of the material is good but it is not as comprehensive as Kaplan or DIT. Also, it is way too expensive! I will pay $200 tops for it. In summary, I will not recommend it.
