The USMLEs have a series of very good “Free 120” style questions they call “SPEX” questions that are freely available on their website. It’s a collection of 86 very high yield questions. The goal with this series is to walk through all 86 of them (like I did for the free 120) with an emphasis on pathophysiology, understanding, and a discussion of test taking strategies. You 100% should work through these and listen to them before Step 2 or 3. I am also attaching the PDF here.

The USMLEs have gotten stranger over the years. In this podcast, I discuss the “nuance” behind many USMLE question patterns. The goal here is not necessarily to teach content (although I do some of that here to buttress my points). The focus is more on emphasizing CURRENT patterns that can help guide your studying and question answering on your exams. Worth your while for sure.

This podcast is incredibly HY for the USMLE and COMLEX exams. In this concluding podcast, I address herpes from an “integrative” perspective. There are so many branch points our examinee overlords can take with the herpes viruses so I aggressively go after them with this podcast. In this second part, I discuss the remaining herpes viruses (2-8). I also integrate the some material related to neurology and immunology while discussing some other pathologies that make common appearances on these board exams.

In this podcast, I conceptually explain the 5 different gaps tested on the USMLEs (Serum AG, Urine AG, Osmolal gap, SAAG gradient, and A-a gradient). I make numerous integrations and really help you understand these things so you don’t have to memorize them. Another point of emphasis (low SAAG ascites is similar conceptually to exudative effusions). If you’re interested in the Step 1-3 classes beginning next week, shoot me an email.

Lots of free points on your exam here.

This is easily one of the most important podcasts I have ever made. You will see this material on your USMLE exams. There’s no test taking strategy that will save you here.

I highlight them very well and make tons of integrations here.

In this podcast, I deliberately use examples to review many of the HY cognitive errors that are often tested on the USMLEs. I introduce these errors with an example, discuss the error, and then mention specific hotspots that the USMLEs use to test that particular error type. At the end, I give some memory hooks to help you differentiate one error from the other so you don’t confuse them on your test.

In this podcast, I deliberately use examples to review many of the HY cognitive errors that are often tested on the USMLEs. I introduce these errors with an example, discuss the error, and then mention specific hotspots that the USMLEs use to test that particular error type. At the end, I give some memory hooks to help you differentiate one error from the other so you don’t confuse them on your test.

In this podcast, I discuss the 3 hour Step 2/3 Last Minute Review. The course will be taking place over zoom from 5-8 pm PST on 4/27. The goal of the course is to use integrative scenarios to quickly hit on many of the HY points commonly tested on the USMLEs in a super short time frame. It is ideally taken in the last few days-weeks before your exam. For a much deeper dive on material, consider the 20/50 hr classes for Step 2/3. Email me through the website to register.

This first podcast in this series is intentionally long as I devote time to discussing not just concepts but a host of very HY test taking principles. Future podcasts in the series should be shorter since I’ve gotten some of these ideas out of the way. Pay attention to these principles as we go.

We all know that niacin deficiency causes pellagra…But our friends at the USMLEs love to draw their questions from the causes/integrations. That way they can easily test if you can see links between disparate symptoms and pathways. This short podcast essentially teaches you all of this in an easy to understand format. Also make sure you know the classic “image” they use for these patients.

This podcast is super HY. Lots of questions you could easily get right on your exam. While we spend time on brain tumors, about half of the podcast goes into tons of other integrations from repro, endocrine, cardio, heme, etc. I strongly encourage you to listen to this. I also discuss lots of pathophysiology so it’s easy to reason through and understand the material.

This podcast is a continuation of Episode 65 which was an introduction to ventilator physiology. In Part 2, I focus on CPAP and PEEP while making tons of integrations with how they affect multiple pulmonary and cardiovascular parameters. This is a classic source of “physiology arrow questions” on the USMLE exams. I also end with a life lesson on fulfilling your dreams the right way.

Diarrhea is a very common topic on the USMLEs. One big focus with some questions is not recall but knowing how the diarrhea actually unfolds. These questions often have answer chances that do not list bugs but list mechanisms. This podcast helps to clear up how diarrhea actually arises so you can answer these questions correctly.

While this may be a rapid review podcast, I spend the entire time discussing different receptors and how they are integrated from a pharmacology and pathology perspective specifically for Step 2/3. The USMLEs now focus quite well on some basic science concepts from Step 1 directly on the Step 2CK/3 exams. This podcast addresses a classic area where they exploit this particular issue. Listen to this stuff AND know it well.

Sickle cell disease is easily a multisystems processes and disorders topic on the USMLEs. It can be tested in a myriad of ways and our friends at the NBMEs have a unique way of extending this concept to so many other disciplines. The goal of this podcast is to help you understand sickle cell disease but also help you see the many other ways they can go after this concept on the exams. In this episode alone, I have spent time talking about micro, social sciences/communication, etc. Definitely try to get through this before your exams if possible. Episode 508 will be the concluding part.

There are a series of spinal cord disorders that are not addressed in many review resources but have an uncanny ability to show up on all the USMLE exams.

This podcast is technically part of the rapid review series for Step 2/3. But there’s a twist here. I spend time discussing concepts, explaining pathophysiology, and showing integrations. But beyond this, I spend a decent amount of time talking about thought processes you should have if you plan to be successful with taking the newer USMLE exams. There’ll be a podcast coming soon on why people fail the USMLE exams and why there’s an increased number of failures.
