HyGuru USMLE PrepReviews of hyguru.com

Dr Damania is amazing! His YouTube videos are awesome! They helped me a lot during Step 1 prep. I just attended his Step 2 CK test taking strategies webinar. It gave me a lot of insights. Can't wait for the next webinar!

In my last few weeks, I found HY guru from Reddit posts + other you tubers I am subscribed to. I AM SO THANKFUL I DID! I just got my pass on step 1 and I know using the rapid course review + top nbme concept videos was so vital to me passing. Dr.Rahul is such a wonderful teacher and makes some not so exciting topics - exciting! Can't wait to reach out to him for STEP 2 CK

Before using HyGuru my practice step 1 scores were in the 230s. After using HyGuru's resources and attending his seminars, I was able to score a 253 on Step 1! The best part of HyGuru in my opinion is his unparalleled ability to incorporate large densities of high yield concepts into seminars that are enjoyable and only take 1-2 hours. Furthermore, with HyGuru, I didn't just learn high yield facts; I learned how to profile questions and anticipate the concepts they were testing. His passion for teaching is unmatched and unlike most resource platforms, he isn't just trying to make a profit. He developed a personal interest in my medical school journey and I could not be more grateful. The foundation he helped me build for Step 1 allowed me to do even better on Step 2, on which I scored a 277! I could not have done it without him and highly recommend utilizing his resources and expertise.

Excellent educator and tutor! I had been struggling to prepare for step 2 for 3 years. After barely passing step 1, I started preparing for step 2 early. I attended a 4 week prep program in Florida, utilized online med ed, U world qbank, and the first aid book for step 2. While they all helped some I still was not making passing scores on my practice exams. I also struggled with my shelf exams during rotations so I knew I needed extra help. Eventually, I was connected with HyGuru and things changed. I started thinking like the test maker, studying more efficiently, and had an accountability partner. I met with Dr. Damania about once a week after viewing his online test taking strategies and productivity system course. With each session we focused on how to approach the question in a stem, paraphrase, and predict manner generating a differential diagnosis early and ruling out or in diagnosis based on the pertinent positives and negatives. He changed my approach to test taking and optimized my study planning and task scheduling using the Notion platform. Notion made it easy to track and integrate all my study materials while laying out each study day. We also focused on how to review questions and practice tests, optimizing my review time. Dr. Damania recommended the Amboss qbank which turned out to be a great resource for me. If you are struggling to prepare for Step 2 or just want to go to the next level in test taking I highly recommend Dr. Damania and Hyguru. I am very satisfied with my results as I have just passed my step 2.

Some call their superheroes spiderman or batman, I call mine Rahul. I met him a couple of months ago on YouTube as I was studying for my respiratory final. He pulled together the pathology, the physiology, and the pharmacology for every disease in a way that no other resource does. Yet, what impressed me most about this guy, is his unrelenting desire to provide the best for each one of us-- his students. I've read everything from Deep Work to Make it Stick, but Rahul takes those concepts and created systems that made sense for MY life. He's saved me so much time and has added substantial value to my life. Thank you, Rahul!

Rahul is super passionate about teaching. I found him when I was prepping for step 1 and he continually helped me with step 2 CK and shelf exams. I've been a nervous test taker for my whole life and my hardwork rarely reflect on tests. Rahul not only helped me to approach a standardized test in a systemic approach, he also taught me how to think on my feet during M3 clerkships. In addition, he has the BEST ATTITUDE - hands down a great mentor for med students! Thank you thank you!

This is an amazing program. Dr. Rahul is so passionate about helping medical students not only pass Step 1 but also live their dreams. He has a gift. He is able to take complicated and dense material and present it in a simple and cohesive manner that is EXTREMELY helpful when studying all the various topics required for Step 1. I would recommend his course to anyone. His content-based Step 1 course and the associated Test Taking Strategies course are MUST HAVES. Please don’t let yourself down and pass up on these one-of-a-kind step 1 resources. Glad I found him when I did.

I wanted to wait and post this until my Step 1 results arrived. I PASSED! I am a non-traditional, borderline passing student that has struggled with foundations and everything in between. I studied for step for a total of 9 weeks. Around week 5 I was STILL not making progress and got desperate. I remember watching a couple of free HYguru youtube videos that were so helpful so I took a chance and bought the step1 course. I AM SO THANKFUL I DID! I worked through the modules as advised, did every assigned uworld question and within one week I noticed a bump in my uworld averages. About 2 weeks into it the program I took an NBME. I started at around 40% correct and ended at around 64%. This was HUGE for me. More than anything he made learning fun, easy to digest, and he was excited and passionate about teaching. Between gaining a stronger foundation and new found confidence - I don't know which one was more beneficial in getting me across the finish line but I owe much of my success and getting the pass to this program. If you're struggling with foundations, the tough stuff, or just a couple weak spots - this is the boost you're looking for. THANK YOU!!!
