Oct 13,2022I had a great experience. Anthony was very knowledgeable and more than willing to go out of his way to help me succeed on ABIM. At the end of my tutoring I felt prepared going into my exam. Would definitely recommend Anthony and Medlearnity to anyone!

Jul 19,2022I totally wish I knew about Medlearnity earlier! The ABR CORE radiology examination was an absolute beast! I took the exam more than once, and my frustration, discouragement, and anxiety grew exponentially with each attempt. I had studied all the same videos, books, apps and Q-banks that all my colleagues had (several times). I often heard people say, "Oh, just study this - this - and this. That's what I did. You'll be fine." But it was never enough for me to pass. I needed help! I realized that formal tutor options were hard to find for a specific/high level exam, like the CORE. In my online search, I came across Medlearnity, and sent them an email to see if they could point me in the right direction. Within 48 hours I was on the phone with Akshay, who had passed the CORE exam himself is exceptionally qualified as a tutor! Together we mapped out a study plan, using his "Task Manager." He introduced me to the Remnote tool, which is much more effective than traditional flashcards. He also recommended a few particular review series and case books. We spent time walking through these books together, specifically in my weaker subjects. Akshay put me in touch with Louis, who is also a phenomenal CORE tutor! Our sessions together were productive, emphasizing the high-yield concepts. Not only did I pass, but I passed in the categories I'd struggled with the most. If you're going to take the CORE exam, don't hesitate to reach out to Medlearnity. I totally recommend them, and the sooner the better. You'll be glad you did.

Jul 19,2022Wonderful tool for Step 1 preparation Medlearnity was a key piece of studying for my Step 1 exam. What I really struggled with was knowing how to formulate a schedule and set up a plan. I was paired with a 4th year medical student as a tutor who had already gone through the step exams and was able to connect with me and help identify my weaknesses. It is as customizable as you would like it to be and they check in on you to make sure you're progressing!

Jun 14,2022Anthony was a great resource for my prep. We got through a ton of questions each session that were high yield and he did a great job of maintaining repetition of weak areas in subsequent sessions. He was also good in testing me on the spot with various facts that could be related to the question at hand and the different ways a concept could be tested. The only qualm I had was the delayed notice/process of finding a substitute with the company when he was unavailable. Highly recommend him as a tutor - was one of the best I've worked with.

Jun 06,2022MedLearnity is the absolute best resource when it comes to residency consulting. I was able to get into a residency program after several cycles of not matching. I cannot say enough good things about them and Radhika specifically. With her help, I was able to write a compelling personal statement, craft the perfect CV, and polish my application so that each would highlight my strengths and illustrate why I would be an asset to any program. Radhika helped me develop the best strategy for applying to programs based on my competitiveness. She also helped me to practice for my interviews, including brainstorming answers to many of the common (and not so common) questions I would encounter during the interview cycle. She conducted mock interviews with me and gave me honest feedback on how I did afterward. She also advised me on communicating effectively what I have to offer as a candidate and why I would be a great fit for each program. Residency is very competitive, and it's getting worse every year, unfortunately. We have more medical school slots than ever due to healthcare expansion from the ACA. However, we have not increased the number of residency slots to a requisite level due to a continued cap on federal funding of GME programs through Medicare (despite a looming doctor shortage of up to 125,000 over the next ten years). As medical students, we're often racked with self-doubt and imposter syndrome, wondering if we're good enough. Often, we need help to draw out all the positive traits within us to convey them to a program and show what makes us a great candidate. This is how MedLearnity helps. What I also like about it is that it's all-encompassing (mock interviews, application assistance, personal statement assistance, including brainstorming, editing, and revision, as well as general advice and strategy for applying to programs, letters of intent, advice on matching, etc.). The assistance is personalized to whatever your needs are, and they are always there to support you throughout the process (from the beginning of admission season till match day). They will answer any questions you have along the way, at any time, via email and respond promptly with no additional cost. With their help, I was able to get into my dream program. This was the best investment I could have made. If you're interested, I would suggest you reach out to them. They even offer a free trial session, which is informative in and of itself. During the session, they can give you an honest assessment of your competitiveness (including step scores, etc.) and develop an individualized residency plan that you can utilize should you decide to move forward. I didn't have the opportunity to use their Step exam tutoring services. I wasn't aware of MedLearnity before taking them, but if I was, I definitely would have utilized them as well.

Mar 30,2022I used Medlearnity and Anthony to prepare for my ABSITE and it made a massive difference. The guidance on what to focus on, tutor session personalized to my weakness, and the study aids that were provided me allowed me to increase from 20% percentile to 70%. It made a massive difference in my future. I will definitely use them again.

Feb 28,2022My experience with Medlearnity has been great so far as they have provided reliability in my life during medical school. Sadjad was a great teacher who provided me with knowledge, feedback, and support. He taught me the importance of having a support system for exam taking, which helped me understand why my scores don’t justify my knowledge of a subject despite my hard work and effort. Sadjad was very patient with me and dissected my maladaptive test taking habits while observing me answer exam questions. Most of all, he spent a lot of time providing care and support throughout the process, which reduced my anxiety, helped me gain confidence in my own abilities to strengthen my weaknesses, and raise my score two standard deviations. Overall, Sadjad is a very well trained and knowledgeable physician who was able to teach me by customizing the subject to my individual level of understanding.

Jan 20,2022I worked with Anthony at Medlearnity and it was absolutely worth the experience. I was struggling to pass my exam and after working with him, I have finally passed it. He has broad knowledge base. He not only gave me tips on time management on the exam but also how to interpret the questions to answer them correctly. We went over a few topics but mostly practiced doing questions, which was worthwhile at the end.

Nov 11,2021I found MedLearnity as a junior level surgery resident seeking a tutor to help me learn advanced medical and surgical concepts. I had an initial phone conversation with Akshay who connected me with Anthony. Anthony is a great tutor, and I highly recommend him to other residents who are interested in learning and increasing their knowledge base. He always puts a lot of thought into preparing his lessons, and I am always comfortable in asking questions if I don't understand a concept. In addition, Anthony is always available and engaging. He's helped prepare for multiple exams and is one of the best tutors that I’ve had.
"Passed ABIM Boards"
Oct 24,2021After failing ABIM a few times and trying different review courses, I decided to try Medlearnity. Dr. Anthony was my tutor for ABIM. He was extremely knowledgeable and resourceful. His tutoring method, calm approach to questions, consistency and reliability, clearly played a huge role in my passing the ABIM. He was not flying through topics and questions just for the sake of completing questions; He was astute and would circle back to concepts and questions that I was weak at and continue to address them hence giving me a solid knowledge base. He was prompt, available, and responded immediately to my emails however trivial they were. He was professional and ethical. When doing questions, he would have me explain why the right answer was right and the wrong answers were wrong, this way he would fill in the knowledge gaps and give me a mini-tutor on the subject. It was worth it. Medlearnity office staff were sincerely nice, flexible, and informative. Medlearnity company has integrity and ethical culture. I would recommend them to anybody studying for Step 3, ITE, and definitely ABIM Boards.

Oct 20,20215 Stars! MedLearnity is an outstanding tutoring service that improved my step 1 score by 50 points! They are professional, intelligent, and most of all excited to help you on your journey. I worked with the MedLearnity tutors twice a week and they communicate high yield content effectively and efficiently. They invested time answering my questions on pathophysiology and provided great rationale. Before MedLearnity I was in the bottom 30% of my class, after buying in and investing time my scores course scores improved to near the top 30%. I attribute this med school turn around to the MedLearnity Team!

Oct 16,2021Medlearnity is definitely a tool to consider in the toolbox of preparation for boards. I can only speak for my tutor but he was very approachable, available , and helped to nail down those hard to wrap your head around concepts. The program was easy to navigate overall. Definitely not a substitute for question banks but a great adjunct to board studies. Will definitely be using it again next time boards come around.

Sep 08,2021after failing Step 1 twice, i was desperate for help. my third attempt was my last chance. time was not on my side and i couldn't risk wasting time with an ineffective team. but from the moment i connected with the medlearnity team, i knew i had found my dream team. i had contacted another highly recommended company first and was prepared to go with them pending a tutor assignment and trial. but medlearnity recommended and scheduled a trial with a tutor all before the first company got back to me. it was a perfect fit and i signed up immediately! after struggling for almost a year, my tutors got me passing practice exams in less than 6 weeks and i passed my third attempt with a score increase of 20+ points! i wish i came to them sooner but best believe, they will be my first contact for Step 2. i am forever indebted to medlearnity and i highly recommend them to anyone. you won’t regret it!

Aug 05,2021Medlearnity is an incredibly well organized and effective program. I was looking to improve my Step 1 score and worried that I was starting to delve into my studying at too late of a time and needed help in catching me up. Sadjad tutored me for Step 1, and I greatly benefited from the personalized sessions we had. He always came prepared to our meetings with topics, questions and useful tips that really helped to elevate my score. Everyone a part of the Medlearnity team was so kind, promptly communicated with me and made the process seamless. I also enjoyed the supplemental materials they provided students and found them to be more useful than other resources. I would highly recommend this service for a Step 1 tutor!

Jul 08,2021I don't have enough good things to say about the Medlearnity team. Their one-on-one coaching enabled me to not only pass my board exams, but to excel at them. Each tutor I worked with listened to my specific needs and concerns to curate a study plan for me based on my specific learning style and strengths. Each tutor was kind and patient and explained things concisely and effectively. Akshay himself is an excellent educator and compassionate soul. He repeatedly takes time out of his day to answer phone calls, emails, and texts from worried students; he listens and offers comforting reassurance along with guidance. My time spent with the Medlearnity team was invaluable. I recommend them to anyone I know going through this exam process!

Jun 17,2021I'm an IMG graduate, I have been using Medlearnity since Step 1. The test-taking strategies that I learn with my tutor and develop strengths in my weaknesses were always the main goal - Also the human support, kindness, and empathy from all the team makes you feel important and care for. I achieved an overwhelming score in my step 2CK after failing the multiples simulations test.

Apr 12,2021I had a great experience with Medlearnity! Everyone was super nice and responsive. They worked with me and my schedule to make sure I got enough sessions in before my exam. I steadily saw my progress and improvement from the start of my dedicated study time to my final Step 1 score. I would recommend them to anyone.

Apr 09,2021I have worked with multiple tutors from med Learnity for step 1 & the medicine shelf. I likely would not have made it this far without them. Every tutor I have worked with has been extremely knowledgable & has an amazing understanding of all the concepts of medicine. I have never had people answer my questions so well until I started working with med Learnity. Additionally, one of my biggest challenges is test anxiety and timing. Each of my tutors went out their way to keep adjusting our preparation techniques until I was able to succeed. They would even talk to me about struggles in life and how to overcome them to maintain focus on school. Lastly, med school is long and can cause burn out. The team wants you to succeed and will keep you accountable. They reignited my passion for medicine and kept me on track. I highly highly highly recommend med Learnity if you are struggling passing step 1 or a shelf. If you put in the work with them, you will succeed (if I can do it, trust me anyone can!!). The most recent tutor I had was Sadjad who is EXCEPTIONAL as both a person and a teacher. While med Learnity is expensive, it is an investment in your future and they will get you where you want to be.

Dec 02,2022I had a great experience studying for the radiology CORE exam with the resources provided by Medlearnity. I did not pass the exam on my first try and reached out to Medlearnity for help. Working with my tutor Louis was a phenomenal experience. I had most of the knowledge of the material, but Louis was able to help with strategies and test-taking skills that helped me pass the second time. Louis is very experienced as he helped many others with this exam. Doing questions and learning how to think through them as well as understanding how the material can be asked were very helpful to my success. If I was to do it all over again, I would have used Medlearnity sooner. Thank you Medlearnity!
