PASS ProgramReviews of pass-program.com

The administration and every instructor have the student's best interest in mind. They will work with your schedule as much as they can. If you are preparing for the COMB and Steps exams, this is the place for you. You will not only be prepared to pass your exam, but also to be one of the best doctor out there.

This test is about the test itself. The true test is how well you were able to balance, your mental, physical and spiritual health while under pressure for a high-stakes exam. You need to make sure that you have everything you need (i.e. food shelter, water, exercise, vitamins, community positive environment, and a level of enjoyment) while taking this test. I took the Pass Program Online and I was forced to create this environment for myself outside of the daily lectures. In my opinion, community, structure, and a positive environment allowed me to pass this exam. The material taught at the PASS Program is broken down into patterns, and if you have a basic knowledge base and are willing to continue to apply the patterns by the end of the fourth week of the 5/6week program things will begin to click. Dr. Francis is a great orator, and he will tell you to understand that material rather than reading and reading, and writing it down. His speech about knowing normal prior to understanding pathology is key! If you know normal, then the abnormal will be able to be spotted from a mile away. If you have taken a leave of absence from medical school, and need structure and community from people who are potentially in your cohort of testing, I would definitely recommend this course and attempting to take it in person!

The experience was amazing (I was an online only student). I felt like for the first time I was truly understanding medicine and how to talk myself through a question or problem towards the not only correct solution but why it was the correct one. This program reinvigorated my love of medicine after failing STEP 1 and being left in a grey area of my education. It also gave me back my confidence that it wasn't that I was unable to pass the exam, I just needed to learn how seek out what the test makers were looking for. I am extremely glad my school recommended this program for me.

I am not exaggerating when I say that Dr. Francis has changed the way that I approach information. I had been struggling in medical school and then with my boards until I bit the bullet and enrolled in the PASS program. Dr. Francis emphasizes patterns and clues and to not dilly dally over questions where you eventually convince yourself to change your answer. This is exactly the kind of learning that I had been missing during my didactics and something that I wish I had done sooner. The day of my exam, I genuinely felt a lot better about the questions and understood what they were asking. I highly recommend this program to anyone struggling with boards studying.

Dr. Francis and the pass program helped me during a very difficult time and helped me gain the confidence to succeed. After joining lectures and morning questions I felt prepared to sit for STEP 1 and passed on my first attempt. If you’re feeling stuck with your studies I recommend PASS program because it truly helped me understand medicine and love it even more !

PASS program did an amazing job at teaching students foundational medicine, test-taking strategies, and personal improvement. If you follow the advice of this class and keep up with lectures, you will improve your Step/COMLEX score regardless of where you started. Dr. Francis is one of the best professors I have encountered. His passion for medicine keeps you engaged during lecture and his method of delivering information allows students to understand difficult concepts. The tutors at PASS were amazing at guiding my study plan and answering questions I had. They were also a crucial part of my success. Overall, this is the most ideal program that will take you through every step of MD/DO board exams. Take advantage of everything it has to offer. Consider in-person experience like how I did. This class offers so many resources at a bargain and the knowledge you gain is invaluable.

Life Changing course. Dr. Francis's mission to truly educate is working and days of brute memorization are gone once he teaches you the concepts. I have tried other prep programs and unfortunately none of them helped. I'm so thankful that that I found the Pass Program and can finally move on to the next phase.

PASS Program is absolutely wonderful! On top of content learning, we get mentally empowered and learn methods to view medicine as a whole through a different lens. Thank you again to Dr. Francis and team!
