"The morning questions recorded sessions…"
The morning questions recorded sessions are Excellent. Dr. Francis engages with knowledge, wisdom, and humor. There are also testimonials from previous students. One day soon, I will be one of the many students Dr Francis taught/inspired into a successful medical practice, that he has never met. Thank You!!

"step2 - time constraint"
For me personally, as I had a time constraint, a holistic, brief, and complete review of medicine in general was immensely helpful.changed my perspective on how I approach a question now and focus on understanding a concept better with techniques given by Dr. Francis.In any case, if you miss a lecture, the flexibility of watching the missed classes at home is super helpful.The break-out rooms, conference rooms, and break rooms were my areas where I drilled comfortably with my study partners.
Step 2 classes were great too.Dr. Diana goes out of her way to explain each of your doubts.Dr. Chacko is a great teacher; his classes are interesting and engaging.
Dr.Francis is a person who deeply cares for his students and has solved our other logistical issues beyond the classroom too.I Highly recommend!!

"If I'd payed for it personally I'd be more upset."
Too many rants about questionable topics. It was difficult to differentiate between what was factual science and what was a learning tool, what were patterns that Dr Francis had identified to help with STEP performance, and what was actually supported thinking in the practice of medicine.

"Best review course I have taken, the Faculty genuinely care about the students, the students support each other, and Dr. Francis has a way of simplifying the most difficult material."
First of all, Dr. Francis and his team genuinely care about the students, his team supports the students, and the students taking the course support each other and help with studying. The day flies by, because it is engaging, funny, and relevant. Dr. Francis does morning questions from Uworld, which translates to >80% on Uworld questions for most students. The only thing I regret is not taking this course sooner and more often. It is relevant no matter which step one is taking, and even relevant to specialty boards.

"innovative strong usmle prep that gets you ready to be an out-of-box thinker when you get to medicine. a warm supportive community is the giant cherry on top."
Dr Francis teaches patterns, which helps to reason through problems and cuts down on having to memorize facts. A definite A+!

"One of the best experiences"
**Long review ahead but I hope useful! - Good luck to everyone**
I have successfully completed all three Step exams through the pass program on my first attempt. Dr. Francis is an exceptional educator, physician, and mentor. He equips you with comprehensive tools, not just knowledge, and genuinely connects with your heart and soul. This approach is the cornerstone of his program, making it truly special and unique. His belief in every student to succeed is sincere, and his authenticity shines through. I wholeheartedly endorse this program. To anyone unsure after reading this, any doubts should be put to rest!
Id like to add anyone writing less than stellar reviews most likely did not follow the program the way he intended. Its very important to fully trust and follow the process. After 3 weeks you may feel like you're not getting anywhere then boom, you start noticing and connecting things you never were able to do before. Its also important to know that sometimes things dont fit in those patterns, and he explains that from the get go. Thats OK. Thats where utilizing qbanks will fill in those extras. You will be able to draw upon and apply these patterns quickly, and it will set you apart both as a medical student and resident because it shows you not only understand physiology, but pathophysiology and why we do what we do to help treat patients!
However, Ive seen some people get impatient and quickly switch to First Aid only growing more frustrated, and some unfortunately dont pass.
If you want to learn to approach medicine in a way you cant find anywhere else, and PASS*, this is the space for you.
To all of you on this journey, I wish you the best!

"Pass Program is the BEST! "
The PASS program is best resource out there for STEP! Dr. Francis guides, inspires, motivates, and treats you like family! After having taken STEP 1 and not passing I didn't know what to do. But being part of PASS is the best thing I could have ever done! Thank you! PASS Family!
