What are learning credits?
Learning credits can be thought of as a form of DIT currency that can be utilized by the holder to purchase and view any learning credit-based DIT product. Current learning credit-based products include lectures from Doctors In Training's Solid Pharmacology series, Solid Internal Medicine series and Understanding Healthcare Reform. Learning credits cannot be applied to Doctors In Training's Step 1 or Step 2 CK review courses.

Since its inception in 2000**, Doctors In Training has studied what makes one person perform better on the USMLE Step 1 exam than another person. There is a definite formula for doing well on the USMLE Step 1.

If you are an average medical student, you can do well with just three resources:

  1. Go through First Aid for the USMLE Step 1 three times 
  2. Complete at least 2000 questions from a Q-bank
  3. Take the 2012 DIT Step 1 Review Course and receive 30 days of access to approximately 148 separate lectures that average 33 minutes in length
There are two parts to the Doctors In Training Step 1 Review Course. To see an outline of both Part 1 and Part 2, please see our Course FAQ's page


Here are six additional optional resources: If you don’t have time to read all, just skim what you can. Look at illustrations. If you are aiming for a 240 or higher – definitely spend the time to read through each of these resources.

  1. BRS Pathology or Goljan Pathology
  2. BRS Physiology
  3. High-Yield Neuroanatomy
  4. Lippincott Biochemistry
  5. Lippincott Pharmacology
  6. Cell Biology: Robbins and Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease, 8th ed. (by Kumar et al) Chapters 1-7 Important to know for the test and will definitely be covered in the DIT course. No great cell biology book right now, so Dr. Jenkins recommends the first 7 chapters of Robbins.

     

Students who take this course can expect to considerably increase their USMLE Step 1 score no matter what knowledge level you are starting from. Doctors In Training knows what you need to know for the USMLE Step 1 and will make sure you know it! How else are you going to know what is high-yield for this exam? You can spend weeks reviewing low-yield information from your first two years of medical school or from another commercial review course and end up doing poorly on the exam. You need to relearn only what is high-yield for this test, and you need to learn it efficiently!


Review books are helpful, but they can only take you so far. This review course will fill-in the high-yield gaps that review books fail to recognize. The real question is, "Why shouldn't you sign up for the Doctors In Training USMLE Step 1 Review?" You have very much to gain by trying the course and very little to lose.
