The material is very helpful -

Dr Ryan is an excellent teacher Dr Ryan is an excellent teacher, I am excited to purchase the step2 for my preparation. The lectures are extremly highyield for step 1, specially for imgs.

The Difference The difference is that his products are focused on the boards. There were distinct topics he lectured on that I remembered showed up in my q-banks. As opposed to cookie-cutter lectures out there, this product saves time because it teaches towards the boards and not generic content. Compared to other things like pathoma, this is more comprehensive because it covers things like ethics and biochemistry that pathoma does not cover. I would say if you covered all of BB and did q-banks, you would be more prepared than most. Also, you should appreciate the lengths he travels to make things simple. His tables are golden; they rival FA, but since he explains everything it makes his slides memorable. Since his content also "follows" FA for Step 1 it feels like I can fall asleep and still not get lost while reviewing his material. I know this is an aside... but he has a soothing voice too.

Boards and Beyond is a fantastic… Boards and Beyond is a fantastic resource in preparation for Step 1. The videos are clear and the practice questions after each video help you confirm your knowledge and identify knowledge gaps. The desktop version is best. I wish they had an app.

amazing! amazing!! really helped me build a foundation of knowledge that I did not have before! The videos are informative, concise and not a overload of unnecessary knowledge!
