If you are attempting to become a licensed medical professional, Varsity Tutors is here to offer multiple Austin USMLE preparation options that can supplement your existing learning process. The United States Medical Licensing Exams, commonly known as the USMLE, are made up of three separate Steps that help determine whether you are qualified to receive your medical license. Whether you have received your medical education from Dell Medical School at the University of Texas at Austin or another institution locally or around the country, you can benefit from extensive review as exam day approaches. No matter what your personal learning style is or how much assistance you need before the exam, we have a preparation option that could be exactly what you are looking for.
What kinds of subject areas can be better understood through Austin USMLE prep?
Each Step of the USMLE covers different concepts associated with becoming a medical professional. In order to be eligible to take Step 3, individuals must first past Steps 1 and 2. Step 1 is generally taken at the end of the second year of medical school and Step 2 sometime during the fourth year. If both steps are successful, Step 3 is usually taken early in the postgraduate training process. The majority of licensing authorities require all three Steps to be completed within a period of seven years, beginning when the first Step is passed.
Step 1 focuses on the basic scientific concepts that are involved in practicing medicine. Step 2 is broken into two parts, one being Clinical Skills and the other being Clinical Knowledge. Step 3 is more substantial and evaluates both the test-taker's medical knowledge and understanding of science in order to assess if they are capable of practicing medicine unsupervised.
When you take part in one of Varsity Tutors' preparation options, you will cover all of this material while also becoming familiar with the format and rules of the exam.
What are the different styles of Austin USMLE prep, and what are the benefits of each?
There are two major types of preparation that are offered by Varsity Tutors. You can choose between an Austin USMLE prep course and working with a private instructor which can take place over our Live Learning Platform. Each approach has distinct advantages and drawbacks. You can even decide to take part in both approaches in order to receive a more thorough educational experience.
When you sign up to take part in an Austin USMLE prep class, you will participate in a learning environment that is likely similar to most of your academic classes in various ways. You have the opportunity to see a variety of perspectives through group discussions and activities with your instructor and fellow classmates. You will have the opportunity to collaborate in a virtual classroom setting in order to determine the most efficient ways to prepare for the exam. You can also request additional one-on-one instruction time with your class teacher.
If focused and personal instruction is how you prefer to learn, you may be better off signing up to meet with an Austin USMLE tutor. These experienced instructors can meet with you in an online or face-to-face setting to provide lesson plans that are customized to your specific strengths and weaknesses. You will work at a pace that is comfortable for you and be able to voice personal concerns while receiving regular feedback. When you work with a private instructor, they can ensure that your time is spent effectively filling in gaps where you need the most improvement and not wasted on areas that you have already mastered.
Whichever manner of study works best for you, these prep options have the potential to improve your knowledge of the relevant material and get you ready for your upcoming Step of the USMLE.
How do I sign up to get started with USMLE prep?
Succeeding on the USMLE is an important step toward the career that you are aiming for. When you are attempting to achieve something that is this crucial to your future, you should not have to do it alone. If either of the Austin USMLE prep options Varsity Tutors can set you up with seem like they could help improve your skills or confidence as test day gets nearer, do not hesitate to reach out to our educational consultants to get started.

Antonio: Austin USMLE test prep instructor
I like to be creative and adapt to the learning style of a student. My goal is to make learning fun and never feel like a chore.... Adapt to what kind of learning the student best responds to; that way learning is fun and easy going, and never frustrating.... Get to know each other a bit, in order to know how to approach each topic the best way possible.... I think making different suggestions on how I taught myself, the material could bring some insight to someone in how to go about understanding the topic.
