If you're a medical school student on your path to licensure, Varsity Tutors can set you up with Virginia Beach USMLE prep. The United States Medical Licensing Exams, or USMLE, is actually a three-step series of tests that are usually completed within a seven-year period. Together, they test the different skills you need to work in the medical field. Varsity Tutors can connect you with two beneficial types of test prep, whether you prefer to collaborate in an online class setting or work individually with a Virginia Beach USMLE prep tutor. You can sign up for one or both; some students even combine the two options for a more comprehensive review of study materials and guidance on taking the USMLE.
What Topics Can Virginia Beach USMLE Prep Help Me With?
The USMLE is divided up into three Steps. Each one is a different exam. Step 1 is a 280 multiple-choice question science exam. It is divided into seven 60-minute blocks completed in one day. Testing your Clinical Knowledge, part 1 of Step 2 consists of eight 60-minute blocks with a total of 316 questions. Part 2, or Clinical Skills, requires you to take on 12 patient cases. It assesses your Communication and Interpersonal Skills, Spoken English Proficiency, and Communication and Interpersonal Skills. Step 3 is a two-day exam; the first day is a 233-question test and the second day is a 180-question exam with 13 computer-based case simulations.
Whether you attend Eastern Virginia Medical School in Norfolk, or Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine in Richmond, a Virginia Beach USMLE prep instructor can cover the many topic areas you need to understand for the test. Subjects reviewed can include General Principles of Foundational Science. In addition to foundational topics, you might also review major organ systems of the body, including the cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, endocrine, reproductive, and renal and urinary systems. The instructor may also provide a comprehensive overview of behavioral health, multisystem processes/disorders, social sciences, and interpreting medical literature.
What Are the Advantages of the Different Types of USMLE Prep?
Virginia Beach USMLE preparation can take different forms. At Varsity Tutors, we offer access to online classes and one-on-one tutoring. Both provide the knowledge, insights, and assistance of an experienced and compassionate instructor. You'll receive accurate information on what is included in each exam and the format of each part as well. Here is a breakdown of what you can expect with each type of USMLE prep that is available.
A Virginia Beach USMLE prep class is led by an instructor in a virtual environment. While all participants log in remotely, it is as if you're together in the same room. Our Live Learning Platform supports instructional activities through an online whiteboard while a video chat system enables everyone to collaborate during each session. For many students, this process makes it easier to learn and share information. Your peers can help each other along and you can ask your instructor questions to receive immediate answers. An online class is an effective way to build your test-taking abilities and confidence. When you find you need extra help, talk to your instructor and they can arrange a one-on-one session with you to address any questions or concerns.
We can also connect you with a Virginia Beach USMLE prep tutor if you prefer to work with a private instructor. By working with a private mentor, you can study at your own pace. The lessons can be adapted to specific areas of opportunity as well as your learning style and personal interests. If your knowledge of body systems is solid but you need help better understanding biostatistics or practice with reading medical literature, lesson plans can be built around these areas. Your tutor, like a class instructor, can review the test format and provide practice exams to assess your proficiency and progress. They can review various test-taking strategies that can help you reach for key performance goals on the exam, or introduce alternative ways to study to improve your efficiency.
How Do I Enroll in Virginia Beach USMLE Prep?
You can choose a Virginia Beach USMLE prep course to work with a group or study face-to-face with a private mentor. Either way, you have the benefits of online access and flexible scheduling. Finding test prep is possible no matter how busy your schedule is. If Virginia Beach USMLE prep seems right for you, contact Varsity Tutors and an educational consultant will answer your questions and help you get started right away.

Oygul: Virginia Beach USMLE test prep instructor
I have taught biology, chemistry and physics laboratory for three years, and have tutored these subjects and MCAT for the same number of years as well. I encourage my students to take an active learning approach and set goals of mastering the material rather then memorizing it. In addition to building a knowledge base, I like to emphasize critical thinking and problem solving. ... My teaching approach is based on the premise that intelligence is malleable. During my undergraduate years and teaching, I met a lot of students with deterministic view about their learning abilities, and saw how this belief affected them in areas they thought they were "not good at."? Usually, these students were worried about the outcome (grades) more than their performance during the course. I help alleviate their anxiety about grades by redirecting their attention to their learning habits.
