MEDICAL TUITIONS
USMLE is a critical exam that every medical student must pass to get a
residency.
In the recent years competition has increased for the residency , So the mere
passing of the USMLE is not a reasonable goal anymore, particularly for the
highly competitive specialties and the USMLE scores has become almost the
most predictive variable for success in residency matching as shown in the
data released by the NRMP
It varies from year to year which score is more important the Step1 score or
the Step2 score, I say both are important and we should not leave anything
for chances.
I believe that our strategy toward the USMLE should be to beat the exam, From
my experience with the USMLE , I found that we can score 99 ,and everybody
should aim for 99 , simply for 2 reasons the 1st because it helps a lot , the
2nd because we can do it .
So I decided to tutor the students to beat the USMLE , and ultimately to get
the residency of their choice .
I will point to you the high yield topics , commonly tested concepts, and
photos you may find in the exam.
I will guide you through different subjects and highlight the exam topics,
Everyday and until your exam
Monitor your progress ,
Fine tune your study .
BEAT THE EXAM
A recent article lamented the growth of private coaching classes and medical
tuitions (1). The world has changed considerably since the years of our
fathers and grandfathers. Old paradigms and situations no longer necessarily
work or hold true. In this context, the concept of medical tuitions needs to
be examined with all its socio- economic ramifications.
Why do students go for tuitions? There are several reasons.
The student wants to get a high score or a distinction.
The student wants to pass.
The student is coerced by the teacher into getting tuitions under threat that
she/ he will otherwise fail.
The parents are apprehensive about the student’s future and force her/ him to
take tuition.
USMLE STEP 1,2 AND MBBS TUITIONS
The Step 1 Exam
Step 1 assesses whether you understand and can apply important concepts of
the sciences basic to the practice of medicine, with special emphasis on
principles and mechanisms underlying health, disease, and modes of therapy.
Step 1 ensures mastery of not only the sciences that provide a foundation for
the safe and competent practice of medicine in the present, but also the
scientific principles required for maintenance of competence through lifelong
learning. Step 1 is constructed according to an integrated content outline
that organizes basic science material along two dimensions: system and
process.
Step 1 consists of multiple-choice questions prepared by examination
committees composed of faculty members, teachers, investigators, and
clinicians with recognized prominence in their respective fields. Some
questions test the examinee's fund of information per se, but the majority of
questions require the examinee to interpret graphic and tabular material, to
identify gross and microscopic pathologic and normal specimens, and to solve
problems through application of basic science principles.
Step 1 is constructed from an integrated content outline that organizes basic
science content according to general principles and individual organ systems.
Test questions are classified in one of these major areas depending on
whether they focus on concepts and principles that are important across organ
systems or within individual organ systems.
Sections focusing on individual organ systems are subdivided according to
normal and abnormal processes, principles of therapy, and psychosocial,
cultural, and environmental considerations. Each examination covers content
related to the traditionally defined disciplines of anatomy, behavioral
sciences, biochemistry, microbiology, pathology, pharmacology, and physiology,
as well as to interdisciplinary areas including genetics, aging, immunology,
nutrition, and molecular and cell biology. While not all topics listed in the
content outline are included in every examination, overall content coverage
is comparable in the various examination forms that will be taken by
different examinees.
System
40%-50% General principles
50%-60% Individual organ systems
hematopoietic/lymphoreticular
nervous/special senses
skin/connective tissue
musculoskeletal
respiratory
cardiovascular
gastrointestinal
renal/urinary
reproductive
endocrine
Process
30%-50% Normal structure and function
30%-50% Abnormal processes
15%-25% Principles of therapeutics
10%-20% Psychosocial, cultural, occupational and environmental considerations
The Step 2 CK Exam
Step 2 assesses whether you can apply medical knowledge, skills, and
understanding of clinical science essential for the provision of patient care
under supervision and includes emphasis on health promotion and disease
prevention. Step 2 ensures that due attention is devoted to principles of
clinical sciences and basic patient-centered skills that provide the
foundation for the safe and competent practice of medicine.
Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (Step 2 CK) consists of multiple-choice questions
prepared by examination committees composed of faculty members, teachers,
investigators, and clinicians with recognized prominence in their respective
fields. Test questions focus on the principles of clinical science that are
deemed important for the practice of medicine under supervision in
postgraduate training. The examination is constructed from an integrated
content outline that organizes clinical science material along two dimensions.
Normal Conditions and Disease categories (Dimension 1) form the main axis for
organizing the outline. The first section deals with normal growth and
development, basic concepts, and general principles. The remaining sections
deal with individual disorders.
Sections focusing on individual disorders are subdivided according to
Physician Task (Dimension 2):
The first set of physician tasks, Promoting Preventive Medicine and Health
Maintenance, encompasses the assessment of risk factors, appreciation of
epidemiologic data, and the application of primary and secondary preventive
measures.
The second set of tasks, Understanding Mechanisms of Disease, encompasses
etiology, pathophysiology, and effects of treatment modalities in the
broadest sense.
The third set of tasks, Establishing a Diagnosis, pertains to interpretation
of history and physical findings and the results of laboratory, imaging, and
other studies to determine the most likely diagnosis or the most appropriate
next step in diagnosis.
The fourth set of tasks, Applying Principles of Management, concerns the
approach to care of patients with chronic and acute conditions in ambulatory
and inpatient settings. Questions in this category will focus on the same
topics covered in the diagnosis sections.
The diseases noted in the outline do not represent an all-inclusive registry
of disorders about which questions may be asked. They reflect the development
of a "High-Impact Disease List" that includes common problems, less common
problems where early detection or treatability are important considerations,
and noteworthy exemplars of pathophysiology. Questions are generally, but not
exclusively, focused on the listed disorders. In addition, not all listed
topics are included on each examination.
Step 2 CK is a broadly based, integrated examination. It frequently requires
interpretation of tables and laboratory data, imaging studies, photographs of
gross and microscopic pathologic specimens, and results of other diagnostic
studies.
Please note that much of the content that addresses normal growth and
development and general principles of care is also related to the individual
organ systems categories, so that the number of questions that deal solely
with normal growth and development and general principles of care is
relatively small.

OVER THE WORLD JUST GIVES AN IDEA ABOUT WHAT IS MEDECINE AND THE STUDENT IS
NOT ABLE TO COPE UP WITH THE VOLUME AND SPEED SO FINALLY THEY END UP THEIR
EXAMS BY READING IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ,,,MOSTLY 80% OF THE STUDENTS EVEN AFTER
COMPLETING MBBS THEY DONT KNOW SOME SIMPLE BASICS AND PATHOPHYSIOLOGIC ASPECT
OF MEDECINE .......MAINLY THE BRIDGE BETWEEN THE SUBJECTS . THIS IS THE MAIN
REASON FOR THE STUDENTS LO SCORE LESS IN USMLE STEPS ....
USMLE EXAM HITS DIRECTLY ON THE CORE THAT WHAT U KNOW AND WHAT IS UR
INDUCTIVE REASONING TO DIAGNOSE THE DISEASE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE....THIS IS
POSSIBLE ONLY U KNOW ALL THE 8 SUBJECTS WELL AND SO I BELIEVE WHEN COMPARE TO
STUDY KAPLAN OUR BASIC MEDICAL TEXT GIVES BETTER CHANCE......EVEN THOUGH
SOURCE IS AVILABLE SOME STUDENTS CANNOT COPE UP WITH THE VOLUMES.....
