The best course to pass USMLE.
I am truly grateful for the support and outstanding courses for both Step 1 and Step 2. After studying for months with Kaplan, I felt completely overwhelmed and doubted whether I would ever be ready. The course from Match was a godsend! It made a huge difference in my progress, and I wish I had discovered them earlier to save time. The program focuses on recognizing keywords in questions and effectively teaches you how to answer the questions and focuses on what matters. 8 weeks after taking the course I passed Step 1, and just four weeks thereafter I completed Step 2. I 150% recommend this course!

Passed step after a fail thanks...
Just got my Step 1 pass today after ~2 years of studying for this exam and a previous fail. Absolutely could not have done this without The Match Guy helping me finally earn those last few points and get over the finish line!! The tutors were incredibly kind and responsive to questions, the material was both impressively comprehensive and high yield, and their tips and tricks for how to tackle common pitfalls or remember/distinguish complicated presentations were absolutely invaluable. I can’t count how many times I thought back to what I had learned in this course on test day.
Austin Boyett
amazing prep course that carried me through test day!
i found the match guy bootcamp to be worth every penny and every hour spent in it!! got my step 1 pass on my first attempt taking the exam! if you pay attention to the match guy live bootcamp sessions and have time to comb through each video once or twice, i’d say that’s more than enough to pass step 1. an overwhelming majority of the material taught during the match guy bootcamp was on the step 1 exam i took. i am super thrilled about my experience with the course and i will be purchasing the step 2 bootcamp for sure.

Great Comprehensive Review for Step 1(passed first attempt)
I took their Step1- 7 Day Bootcamp in April and I had a great experience overall! It was a little difficult for me to wake up at 5 AM for the live classes since I live on the West Coast. But they provide recordings afterward so if you prefer studying at your own pace, that option works really well. I ended up watching recordings for about 40% of the classes. I’m happy to say that I passed Step 1 on my first attempt, and I’m very thankful to the Bootcamp team for their help! I actually just purchased their Step 2 Bootcamp as well!

If you feel overwhelmed, IT IS A MUST to focus in what matter.
I was waiting for my results so I could say exactly how this works for me, and yes I PASSED! After postponing my STEP 1 exam date again, like all of us, and feeling overwhelmed, The Match Guy team helped me focusing in HY which makes a difference, from scores in NBME and Free 120 ~55% I achieved 2 days before exam a 84! in Free 120 and passing scores in NBME.

Passed Step 1!
After studying for some time, I stumbled on the match guy 7 day course and immediately started approaching questions with confidence . Everything taught is valuable and helps you decipher right and wrong answers. Definitely worth the time. Happy to report a passing score on step 1 and a huge part of that is from the help of the match guy!
Maria
The match guy course helped me pass…
Excellent Step 1 course! The 7-day review was very high-yield and focused on the most important concepts. The tutors were great and explained everything clearly. My NBME score increased by 20 points after the course, and I was able to take Step 1 the following week. Highly recommend!
Abdullah
The Match Guy is a fantastic medical…
The Match Guy is a fantastic medical board prep company! Their Step 1 content (whether it is the Bootcamp, Question Bank, or their pdfs/Ankis) is highly condensed, high yield, and relevant. Thanks to their help, I was able to easily pass both my USMLE Step 1 and COMLEX Level 1 exams.

USMLE Step 1 High-Yield Course
I completed the Step 1 Bootcamp and have nothing but positive things to say about it. I was on a very tight timeline while working 40 hours per week, so I needed a study plan that was focused on what truly matters without wasting time. I’m happy to say that I passed Step 1, and I highly recommend this course to anyone preparing for the exam.
Jacqueline Jessop
LEVEL 1 or STEP 1 exam
I would 1000000% recommend the Step 1 boot camp to anyone taking COMLEX LEVEL 1 or USMLE STEP 1. I was in panic mode because I needed to take my LEVEL 1 exam by the end of the month and my comsaes were only in the 300s. After taking this course and studying the powerpoints/rewatching the lectures they present and taking notes/doing the anki I shot up 120 points to 490 on my next COMSAE.
Dina Elsaidy
I highly recommend The Match Guy
I highly recommend The Match Guy Step 1 course, and I’ll definitely be using it again for Step 2. I recently passed Step 1, and this course played an important role in my preparation. After finishing UWorld and several NBMEs, I felt stuck and wasn’t sure how to improve my scores. The course was incredibly high-yield, well organized, and helped me organize my thoughts and connect the concepts that matter most for the exam.
Sofia Edmonson
Passed step 1
I took the Step 1 Bootcamp course during the two weeks leading up to my exam, and in my final week I worked one-on-one with Dr. Mahdi. Looking back, I am so glad I did both. Pairing the Bootcamp with one-on-one tutoring from Dr. Mahdi was one of the best decisions I made during my Step 1 preparation, and I truly believe it played a big role in helping me pass.

I passed my Step 1
I passed my Step 1! Samir was the most amazing tutor ever and he helped me through a lot. My NBME started out rather average, but in the end reached as high as 85% before I took the exam. He prepped me so well that I felt very very confident in my exams!

Step 1 Crash Course!
The Step 1 crash course was a game-changer for me. My practice exam scores jumped from the mid-50s to a 65% following the course and, ultimately, a pass on Step. The tutors give such clear explanations that it truly helped make content easier to connect, remember, and build confidence from!
Felicia Delgadillo
Fantastic course!
Fantastic course and wonderful, passionate people who are only devoted to helping forward the next generation of fantastic physicians. Even though the days were long, I never felt lost or overwhelmed by this course! I jumped from a 52% chance of passing to a 94% chance of passing in one week because of this course. Thank you, Match Guy!

I searched everywhere for reviews
Guys I searched everywhere for reviews of this course and was so hesitant to buy it, but I don’t regret it for a second! I only wish I had started it sooner. My study buddy Kate H and I were stuck and demotivated, struggling to separate high-yield from low-yield topics. This course gave us the exact clarity we needed. All of the teachers are very good,
Mariam
Best decision I've made!!!
I didn’t know what to expect from a 1-week crash course but decided to give it a try because I was so burned out, and this turned out to be the best decision I’ve made on my step 1 journey! Very high yield and straight to the point, and all of the tutors are amazing at what they do. I wish them all the best and I highly

USMLE Step1 Crash Course
This is an ideal course for passing Step1. I was doing Uworld on my own prior to the course and found myself wasting time studying Uworld without guidance. I then enrolled in this course and knew what to study in order to pass the exam. I plan to look for help as well for Step2.

Step 1 HY Bootcamp is excellent
I can’t recommend the Step 1 HY Bootcamp enough! I wish I had done it earlier in my prep. I had been stuck at 59 EPC on my NBMEs but my first NBME after watching the lectures plus doing their anki decks, was 68! Really good option for those overwhelmed with all the prep resources out there that take way
Myo
Best bootcamp especially for old IMGs!! And New!
I just completed the USMLE step 1 high yield bootcamp and It was absolutely amazing!!! I am an old IMG who lost touch with basic science for many years and didn’t know where to start or which resources to focus on with too many options out there. The best decision I made in my journey back to study.

I know how you feel…
More resources, targeted adds, word of mouth. I was fatigued and overwhelmed with spending money and not seeing any results, then I finally tried The Match guy, and for the first time in my USMLE journey I felt as though this wasn’t impossible anymore. The tutors are amazing and really care for you and provide you with a road map to a pass.

I’m an M4 at a US MD school
I’m an M4 at a US MD school on the East Coast, and I came into this 7-day Step 1 course feeling pretty worn down by the exam process. I’m leaving genuinely surprised by how much more comfortable and confident I feel with the material. I learned a tremendous amount in one week, but more importantly, this course helped the material finally feel connected and made Step 1 feel much more manageable.
AA
Strongest USMLE prep in the market today
This company will be a future game-changer in this field, and I heavily recommend it to anyone that’s on the fence. I’ve done both the crash course and the platinum tutoring package, as well as the question bank. They’ve created a special high-yield packed-in system that will allow you to grasp and remember the most important topics for your exam.
Theresa
I was feeling completely paralyzed
I was feeling completely paralyzed by where to even begin with my Step 1 prep, so I took the plunge and joined The Match Guy’s 7-Day Bootcamp to finally get me moving. I highly recommend it for anyone in the same boat; it turned out to be the perfect “reset” button. I’m walking away with a solid plan and the confidenc

Increased my nbme score!
Went from an nbme score of 62 before the course to 70 after the course!! Couldn’t be more grateful. Taught us strictly nbme based and only HY!
