"Take the course or be sorry!"-Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2011

"Take it."-Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Good review. Give yourself some time after the course to actually make it through step 1 again before taking the exam."-Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2011
"I would highly recommend it!"-Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2011
"I would tell them that it is a great course if you really want to become familiar with first aid. It also helps for third year!"-Texas A&M College of Medicine, Class of 2011
"I would highly recommend it. It covered the important topics on Step 1 with a lot of great mnemonics and tips for remembering the info."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"The course was well worth it. It helped me get through the material and improved my score greatly. DIT is a great review of all the topics! You should finish with the course about a week before taking the exam to optimize your performance."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Take the course! This course is the only reason I scored as well as I did!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Do as much studying and practice as many USMLE world Q's as possible before the course starts. Then use the last couple weeks to take the course and take the test. The course really brings it all together in a short, but extremely important period of time."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It will definitely help you get through first aid and help you focus on important details that you might have otherwise overlooked."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Good pacing and a great review of all subjects. Take the test immediatley after finishing the course (don't wait two weeks-just take a few days off, then take the test)."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Great as far as pacing you through your studying and really ensuring that you look at all the sections of first aid that you would otherwise tend to ignore. It's a rough few weeks, but is really invaluable. Also, the "panic factor" sets in quickly with this course, which really pushes you into your a-game."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Loved it, would rcommend to anyone. Awesome!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It's great. Study hard!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Take the DIT Review and work hard with it. And always do questions. The score will improve from whatever their starting baseline is."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It's a good way to go through First Aid for Step 1 if you have already gone through it at least once before. If you have gone through First Aid on your own first, then you are already familiar with it, and so reviewing with doctors in training makes it easier. The pauses during the lectures to answer additional questions is helpful as well. I used Doctors in Training not so much to learn things from First Aid, but to reinforce material that I had already studied, and for that, Doctors in Training was helpful to me. It also helped me to stay on a set schedule."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Great course to structure studying"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Do as best you can in class and rely on DIT to fill in the blanks for step 1"-Texas Tech school of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Great compehensive review!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It's a great resource in organizing your study and for giving you important integrated clinical nuggets of knowledge. If i had to do it all again, I would take the DIT course again for sure."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It was a good tool for making you focus and study during the stressful weeks before the exam. It is very worthwhile, but moves very fast. Make sure to study the quizzes and worksheets like DIT suggests!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"Very worth it!"-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"The course was a great comprehensive review and I can't imagine not using it for my preparation. Take the course online at your own speed. Make sure to do the review questions. It's a wonderful resource."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"If you're feeling hesitant about studying for such an important test without any sort of safety net but aren't eager to shell out a few thousand dollars for a day-by-day recap of medical school, DIT is a great alternative. It's affordable, provides a solid outline to base your studying around, and his hints are really helpful. I saw a dramatic improvement in my practice test scores while taking the course."-Texas Tech School of Medicine, Class of 2011
"It is a good value and will help organize your study efforts in preparation for either USMLE or the COMLEX exmas. I would recommend it to any second year preparing for board examinations."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"Pretty good supplement if you take it seriously. Not sufficient by itself buy definately helpful."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"It's a great review, will cover a lot of things on your test, don't use it as your sole means of preparation, by that I mean be doing 200-300 questions a day 2 weeks before your exam up til your exam time so that you've buildt up great test stamina and also gone through similar test questions. The short answer questions in DIT study aids are great! The short answer questions are awesome for helping you recall the stuff needed to answer the detailed questions. I would take the course again for test prep, and am strongly considering using it for step II. Keep up the good work!"-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"The review course is great. It gives you something to keep focused and gives you a structured study schedule. Without it, my days would've been too long and boring."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"Most important thing with this course is helping you organize and help you focus on specific areas. If you study 3 months like his plan tells you to do, you can hit 230-240 area even if you are a marginal student coming into it."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"I thought it was great... Great way to recall all vital information."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"It was very helpful, especially with laying out a schedule that's quick to get through."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"My goal was 220+ and DIT certainly played a role in getting me where I needed to be. I could not have gotten a 231 without the help of Dr. Jenkins. I look forward to thanking him in person if I run into him at Plaza during rotations."-University of North Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, Class of 2011
"It's a great course that helps you focus on what areas you need help with. The organization was a really effective way to review the material before the test."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"It rocks. I would say it is one of the most important resources in addition to first aid and USMLE World. It was very good at reviewing First aid right before the test and telling you soome information that didn't appear in First Aid."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"The on-line course is great. It helped me focus and study at my own pace."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"Great course. Perfect for a thourough review once you go through an initial review on your own. I would recommend taking the course-I think it did a good job of reinforcing some very important concepts. i think it helped me, and I was very pleased with my score."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"I thought the course worked for me. Oline is definitely the way to go. With online you can work at your own pace, pause, and rewind. I think the course helped solidify what first aid had to offer and put it in an organized manageable format."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"I had exam questions that I would have never known if I hadn't taken the Doctorsintraining course. The additional information added by dr jenkins really helped me prepare. The most helpful aspect of the course was being told which portions of first aid was high vs low yield."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Class of 2011
"I would tell them to take the course. It's great for giving you a schedule and getting through first aid. There are a lot of topics that we talked about that the instructor made easier for me to understand than class/first aid. ex: acid/base was taught very well! It was the best acid/base lecture ever."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"I definitely think the course created a rigorous schedule that helped me attack the material in 1st Aid one final time prior to boards, as well as provided some additional high yield concepts. I believe if you already utilized 1st Aid with yuour coursework and completed a scheduled read-through of the 1st Aid separate from any initial reviews then this course will provide a much needed refresher for latter QBank questions right before sitting in on the official exam. I highly recommend the DIT course for Step 1."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"It was a great course for people who need some sort of format to study. You have to do the work yourself but his course guides you in the right direction."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"I think it's great! I'm the type of person who really needs a strict study schedule to keep me organized, and this course was perfect for that. Also, I didn't fall asleep (as I usually do watching videos) b/c the course was interactive. The quizzes really kept me on my toes and upped my confidence, and I was shocked and pleased at my exam score. I give it an A plus!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"Take it. Really helps with understanding of second year material which is not often taught well in school."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"A good way to pace your studying and keep you focused down the stretch. The course does what it says it will."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"It was helpful. It kept me at a good pace for studying all the material."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"It is a great way to keep yourself on track. Without it I would not have had structure to my study plan. Plus, the daily quizzes were a good way to keep important information fresh."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"I feel that the course helped me to break down my studying into manageable chunks. I appreciated Dr. Jenkin's organization of the material."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"It is a well taught course. Information is presented in manageable pieces. The course provides extra motivation and is well presented."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"The DIT review course is really great for giving you a schedule and forcing you to stick to it by asking questions, repeating the important things, and keeping it interactive. It also keeps you from focusing on the subjects you want and makes sure you cover everything. I had two questions about rubella and PDA, thank goodness Dr. Jenkins beat it into us! The only topics that I felt weren't covered were neuroanatomy and pelvis and leg anatomy. But these were not covered in first aid adequately either. It's really helpful!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"I thought the biggest strength of the course was in keeping you on track and motivated. It's easy to get side tracked or to lose site of the big picture when you try to go at it on your own which can mean you spend too much time on low yield topics. DIT was well worth the money and time, especially after I saw my score!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"I felt that I knew exactly what I was suppose to know about everything, including knowledge and what to expect during the exam, making the exam VERY predictable!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"DIT is an excellent way to keep yourself on track in a time when all of the information starts to run together or it gets to the point that you don't want to look at it anymore!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"The DIT program is a great tool to help organize your study schedule. The review quizzes are a great way to practice must-know information. There is so much information, it is hard to get through all of it on your own. Dr. Jenkins simplifies this process. Definitely worth the time and money!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"Start studying early, this is a great course and if given proper effort will help you maximize your potentil."-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"Definitely take this course. At the end of second year medical school, I struggled in biochemistry, microbiology, and anatomy since those had already slipped my mind. the course did a great review of those subjects so I felt quite well prepared for Step 1. The constant repetition of answering questions in the workbook helps as well - certain things like the brachial plexus need to be drawn over and over till the information sticks!"-University of Texas Medical Branch at Houston, Class of 2011
"The online course was great. I think I could have improved my Step 1 score if I had done a better job of keeping up with the material each day but because I was taking the online course I had a bad habit of not breaking to do the quizzes myself; this wasn't the best idea. As for the material taught in the course I was very surprised on how much material was on my test that wasn't found in 1st Aid but was in Dr. Jenkins' workbook. There were several things that Dr. Jenkins mentioned were important points that were very high yield for me. Overall this course was great, I'm certain that it added 20 points to my step score and had I used the course properly I could have easily gotten another 15-20 points."-University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio, Class of 2011
"It was great for helping me organize my studying and stay on track."-University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio, Class of 2011
"It was a life saver in getting through FA in a systematic manner. Take the course, complete it on time (including all Dr. Jenkin's quizzes and tutorials) and schedule the exam within 5 days... after that, sit back and wait for a good score."-University of Texas Medical School at San Antonio, Class of 2011
