Student Reviews

Hyguru has a great systematic approach to breaking down Step 2 CK test questions in a way that connects the pathophysiology to the patient's symptoms. I have never approached questions like this before and it's been a game changer for me so far.

HyGuru Pass/Fail course is the BEST resource to help you with your step 1 preparation. I love the question approach to learning concepts, it really helps me to consolidate all the information I need to know for step 1. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants an interactive way to review all the high-yield concepts.

I can confidently say the only reason I passed step 1 is because of this course. I was studying blind before this and knew I had a weak foundation. My first CBSE was 40%. After the HyGuru course, I passed my first NBME and did better and better on the following ones. This course is worth the time and money 100x over. Dr. Rahul is an amazing teacher and motivator and you can really tell he loves what he does. I'll be forever grateful for him.

I found hyguru with only a few weeks left in my preparation, and it was life changing! I was using the same resources for months without seeing any significant jump in my self assessments. Dr. Rahul's approach didn't only give me a great understanding of NBME concepts, it also kept me energized. I don't know what I would have done if I didn't go through his pass/fail course. Definitely worth the time and money, couldn't recommend it enough. I will forever be grateful to the hyguru team.

I watched most of HyGuru lectures and they're exclusive and unique in all aspects. Some of the stand out ones are Autonomic pharmacology lecture and arrow lecture. Guys, arrow lecture is so high yield, it's a MUST watch lecture, if you're going for USMLE step exams. Rahul, You really did a great job in breaking these difficult topics, so thank you thank you. You beated all other resources on NBME course prep.

HyGuru gave me well-organized and high-yield material to prepare me for boards! I took COMLEX, but Rahul's tutoring combined with the HyGuru Pass/Fail course helped me do very well on the COMLEX exam! Additionally, his schedule, while rigorous, is very well-organized and prepares you for success! I definitely felt that my efforts paid off well thanks to Rahul!

I wouldn't have passed Step 1 without Rahul's 1:1 tutoring and online resources, where he was instrumental to restructuring my entire step 1 study schedule, test-taking strategies, and understanding of the material. His positive energy, passion, dedication, reliability, techniques and easy-to-understand explanations have kept me motivated and excited about learning again throughout this process. Rahul has a gift for teaching and I recommend him and his resources to everyone!!!

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.

Dr. Damania's Step 1 course was phenomenal. Dr. Damania is a gifted teacher, explaining clearly, thoroughly covering the material, while distilling the mass of information into their most important and differentiating characteristics for the exam. This review helped me see the bigger picture, develop a differential more easily, clarify areas of confusion, and parse exam questions more effectively. I feel this course boosted by score a lot and helped me with my clerkships. 10/10!

This resource is a MUST! Dr. Damania's enthusiasm in explaining each concept is contagious. Not only is everything concise and in a way that it is easy to recall, he says little mnemonics that will stick. 10/10... Love this man! He is making STEP 1 studying doable and actually fun!

Hyguru makes it very easy to integrate and retain concepts across various fields. The pass/ fail course makes step 1 preparation easier and more fun! I passed step 1 because of Hyguru. Thank you Rahul!

First and foremost, a big big big thank you to Dr. Damania. His charisma and smile keep you motivated throughout his videos. For me personally, I benefited the most from his UWorld Q review videos and his Notion workspace! Notion has become a one stop shop for me as I have all my test dates, my UWorld Reviews, Kaplan, Amboss, etc all in one space. I added all the pathoma videos with times so that I also can schedule those! I also went ahead and added a picture attachment so I never really have to go back to any other resource! It is all incorporated into one space, which makes life SO MUCH EASIER! In addition, Dr Damania genuinely cares. He responds back via email to any problems, concerns, and questions very quickly!

If you're wondering about resources for Step 1, look no further! Rahul helped me go from getting 50s on NBME practice tests to passing step 1 in 5 short weeks. He is an amazing motivator who truly knows how to guide students toward passing in the most efficient and effective way.
