Private USMLE Tutoring in Salt Lake City, UT
Receive personally tailored
You can trust Varsity Tutors to connect you with a qualified Salt Lake City USMLE tutor in as little as 24 hours. Anyone who wants to become a licensed medical professional in the United States must pass the United States Medical Licensing Exams (USMLE). The USMLE consists of three different exams that test different levels of skill in the medical field, and which are commonly referred to as "Steps." Steps 1 and 2 can be taken in any order, but you must pass Steps 1 and 2 in order to be eligible for Step 3, and you must pass all three in order to receive a medical license. Taking the USMLE is an intensive undertaking, and enlisting help in the form of Salt Lake City USMLE tutoring is a prudent choice.
What are some advantages of working with a Salt Lake City USMLE tutor near me?
Traditional classroom models, such as you may have experienced in medical school, tend to rely on a rigid curriculum. That makes sense. There is a lot of material that needs to get covered and not a lot of time to do it. Of course, each student is going to grasp certain things quickly, and struggle with other things, and these won't be the same for everyone. With private instruction, that doesn't have to be an issue. You get to set the pace. You can take more time on the subjects where you need help, and breeze through those that you have a good handle on.
Salt Lake City USMLE tutors can deploy a number of learning strategies in your sessions, focusing on those that best respond to your particular learning style. If you are a visual learner, for example, they can use visual aids and flashcards for terminology. If you respond better to a more Socratic approach, your sessions can take on a more conversational feel. Studying in a style that best matches your learning preferences can help you engage with the material, and can better aid you in retaining information.
What topics can Salt Lake City USMLE tutors review with me?
The USMLE's three Steps all have different focuses, and for each, there will be different information you will need to brush up on. Step 1 covers the basic science practices involved in effectively practicing medicine. Doing well on this Step is paramount since Step 1 is an important component in residency matching. Step 2, which is in two parts, covers Clinical Knowledge and Clinical Skills. Step 3 evaluates whether you possess the medical knowledge and understanding of required sciences needed to practice medicine unsupervised. There is a lot covered by these exams, and in addition to helping you study these topics, Salt Lake City USMLE tutoring can also help you with memorization and recall techniques so when it comes time to sit for the exams the information can be readily available to you and easily retrievable.
Can a Salt Lake City USMLE tutor teach me test-taking strategies too?
The USMLE can be a grueling ordeal. Step 1 is a full-day test session with 280 multiple-choice questions divided into seven one-hour testing blocks. Step 2 spans two days, with 316 multiple-choice questions, spread out over eight one-hour blocks on the first day. The second day tests your Clinical Skills with 12 patient cases. Step 3 involves two day-long test sessions and is a combination of multiple-choice questions and computer simulations. It's a lot to go through, and it can be challenging to maintain peak performance for the duration. Your instructor can help you develop strategies to help you stay focused. Some may be as simple as eating a balanced mean going into the test, and others, like mindfulness techniques, can help you re-center when your concentration starts slipping.
Knowing the material is the best way to do well on the test, but you shouldn't underestimate the value of understanding the test format and knowing how best to approach an exam. Across the three Steps, you will encounter hundreds of multiple-choice questions. If you leave any unanswered, you are sacrificing those points. Your instructor can help you with time management strategies so that you are answering all of the questions in your allotted time. They can also help you with techniques for approaching the questions with elusive answers so you can logically narrow down your choices and increase your chances of arriving at the right answer.
Of course, between high school, your undergraduate work, and medical school, you probably have some familiarity with multiple-choice tests. However, there are sections in the USMLE that you may not have much experience with. The Clinical Skills portion of Step 2, for example, involves 12 patient cases with 15 minutes allotted for each patient encounter, and 10 minutes to record patient notes. It can be a challenge to get so much information down quickly, and your instructor can help you with outlining techniques to help you organize your notes effectively and efficiently.
Step 3 involves 13 computer simulations. Working with computer simulations can at first feel a little foreign to some people. Your instructor can administer practice tests during your Salt Lake City USMLE tutoring sessions so you can grow more accustomed to the format and feel comfortable when you go into that part of the exam.
How do I get started with a Salt Lake City USMLE tutor near me?
Working with Salt Lake City USMLE tutors can be beneficial in preparing you for your exams, and it is also incredibly easy. Your online sessions are delivered over the Live Learning Platform, which means that you can study from anywhere that has a reliable internet connection. If you want to attend sessions from home or a neighborhood coffee shop, that's fine. If you want a quieter setting, you can attend from a local library like the J Willard Marriott Library.
If you are worried that the quality of instruction will suffer in an online session, you can put that out of your mind. Our platform provides a number of exciting learning tools like live chat and a virtual whiteboard. There is a document editor, so you and your instructor can work together in real time. Sessions are also recorded, so you can watch them later if you ever want to review something specific during the time between sessions.
It can be a lot to take on if you are going to find a Salt Lake City USMLE tutor on your own. You'd need to find someone who has knowledge of the material, expertise as an educator, and a schedule that meshes with your own. Why do all that, when Varsity Tutors can do that work for you?
