What are some of the topics that a Sacramento USMLE course can help me review?

The United States Medical Licensing Exam, or USMLE, is the exam taken by students who want to become licensed in the medical field. It is comprised of three separate tests, or "Steps." Step 1 covers the basic science concepts necessary to practice medicine effectively. Step 2 consists of two parts: Clinical Knowledge and Clinical Skills. Step 3 is given over two days, and it measures whether or not the student has the medical knowledge and understanding of the required sciences that are necessary to be able to practice medicine unsupervised.

You have to pass Steps 1 and 2 to be eligible to take Step 3. Steps 1 and 2 can be taken in any order, but usually, students will take Step 1 at the end of their second year and Step 2 in their fourth year. Step 3 is then taken during the first or second year of your postgraduate training. There are many topics covered on these exams, including the immune system, respiratory system, gastrointestinal system, and much more.

What are some of the benefits of taking a Sacramento USMLE class?

Preparing for the USMLE with the guidance of a class can provide you with a multitude of benefits over studying for the exam on your own. You'll be learning the information found on the exam from an expert in the USMLE. Your instructor can lead discussions that keep you interested because they know multiple teaching methods to keep things fresh. For example, your instructor may break the class up into groups to play "Jeopardy!" using answers that involve the systems in the body. Your USMLE instructor may also use practice exams to help you become familiar with the content and timing so you are not going into test day oblivious to what the exam will actually look like. Also, these practice exams can help you perfect your timing.

Working in an engaging environment is a fun, effective way to get a thorough review of the information. It can even introduce you to new, more effective study habits. Taking a Sacramento USMLE class means you will get to work alongside other aspiring medical professionals. During group activities, you can learn things from the perspective of others, and vice versa. Also, your instructor can give you immediate feedback, and you're able to ask for help or clarification whenever you need it.

If you are worried about finding the time to fit a class into your schedule, you will appreciate the fact that USMLE classes are online. Instead of wasting time and gas money driving to a physical location, you will log into a virtual classroom. As long as you have a stable internet connection, you can take classes in a distraction-free, comfortable environment. You can hear, talk to, and see your peers and instructor using video chat. Also, if you find yourself stuck on a particular topic, like biostatistics, or you have questions about the endocrine system, you can request some extra time with your instructor.
