Student Core FAQs
What's different about MedStudy?
MedStudy has over 35 years of expertise in helping doctors prepare for—and ace—their boards.
We're known for making learning medicine easier, and it all started with the conversational writing style in our Core.
We believe that combining science-based learning techniques with extremely focused content ensures you efficiently store the most important information in your long-term memory. That makes it easier to sail through your boards with flying colors—and makes you a better clinician.
How does this Core help prepare for Step exams?
From basic science to clinical knowledge, the casual and concise content in this Core makes the medicine you must master easier to learn.
This Core is carefully created using the USMLE exam blueprint as a guide for Step 1 and Step 2. Step 3 is not covered.
In this Core, there are over 1,000 unique Preview | Review questions (with answers highlighted in the text) at the beginning of each main topic. These questions are based on the most exam-relevant info.
Reviews
The books are so beautiful and helpful on my medical career.
Love the books and I feel that they are perfect to supplement classes and prep for boards. They give enough detailed information that you need to know without going over board. They also have little notes or things to focus on in the margins which I find helpful.
I very much like the format and organization of topics. I especially like the clear and concise-yet comprehensive- presentation.
I have the book set and they are nice. I purchased the subscription because I left one of the books I needed. It is ok but does not have a read aloud option or work with my computer’s read aloud function. If I would have know that I would not have purchased due to all learning experiences being predominantly online (too much screen time). If you don’t want to own the books this is a great alternative just not the one I was looking for, the question are ok but other question banks are better and less expensive.
The books hit different, right? We're so glad you're enjoying them! Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the digital version, especially about read-aloud. We're taking notes and always working to level up.

Content might be a bit bloated for each individual Step exam, it surely has been helpful in understanding a variety of topics

Amazingly thorough and easy to read
Awesome
I got these with a discount from the AMWA, and they have been an incredible resource. I use them as a reference for clinical courses and to review content for STEP1. The content is organized and I can quickly grasp the key points.

I received the book set and it’s both super thorough and helpful!
I know the book would have been amazing to study from. My friend also got one and I was able to review the product with her. They are amazing!! So much information in one place! Unfortunately UPS did something with my package. They took a picture of the books being delivered, but when I went downstairs, they weren't there. I opened a claim... I think they brushed if off, because I have no updates- All in all, this is a great product and I highly recommend, just don't ship with UPS.

The content is clear and concise, includes good background information for easy understanding, and focuses on high yield topics. The color coded books are a nice bonus and and easy to carry around!
These Medical Student Core books are extremely well written. It breaks down difficult concepts into easily understood material. I am so happy that I have these books! So far, I consider these books and UWorld to be my most valuable resources for Step Exam prep!
I like it, love the highlights and easy to understand material
