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

A GREAT pathway to usmle SUCCESS How do such DEDICATED and TALENTED tutor still exist? My name is Nancy, a Nigerian 4th year medical student in China. I was just about sleeping when my friend asked me to join the zoom meeting. Upon joining, I got stuck throughout the whole session, my confusions were cleared, questions answered and mind fully motivated. This is a very good community dedicated solely to helping as many (prospective) doctors as those willing to be helped and I’m so grateful to have been in attendance. I learned a lot! I do recommend this community to all who wants to pave their usmle way successfully!! Kudos to this great team! Todaywithnancy ❤️

I took the program and found the videos… I took the program and found the videos by Dr. Adesena very helpful in understanding the concepts. The question bank was helpful in accessing my strengths and weak areas. The resources are very helpful and i feel its worth every penny spent.

The best platform for an IMG As an IMG there is more anxiety. This is definitely the best program out there for an IMG. It Covers the high yield concepts and focuses on the key associations. The masterclass is worth watching, it compresses the subject as a whole. Dr.Adesina teaches with great passion and is a great mentor. His motivational videos really boost our morale. Constant tutoring helped me go a long way, it is hard to study for USMLE by itself, getting a plan on how to go about it reduced half the tension.

Thank you dr Adesina and smash team Smashusmle has made studying with FIRSTAID for my board exam pretty easy, the integrated interractive live lecture with Dr Adesina is just awesome, the GIT and CARDIO live lecture was a bomb, cant wait for the next lecture.Im so glad for an opportunity like this .Having tried so many others, i bet you this is the best platform so far. Thank you Dr Adesina and smash team, you rock.
