To promote retention and consolidate the content, test questions are strategically placed throughout the app (spaced learning)

After the successful completion of each level (need 70% to pass), the high yield facts tested are summarized in a few short sentences.

Can play game anywhere! Game designed to be played in situations where normal study does not occur (i.e. as a passenger, on a plane, waiting in line at the grocery store, between classes, on the toilet, etc.)

Email the creators directly from the app about any comments, suggestions, or problems. We will write back and make the necessary changes based on user feedback!

Several funny professional promo videos and medical parodies already have a cult following on YouTube


Benefits for medical students:


• “Creates” study time- Maximize the “dead space” in your day to study like when waiting in line, between classes, while waiting for rounds to start, or even on the toilet!

• Spaced learning- Magnify your declarative memory as spaced learning techniques used to place high-yield board facts throughout the app selectively to enhance consolidation

• Decrease test anxiety- You will worry less during exams & pimping if you know your material cold

• Content created by trusted sources- Questions written/edited/tested by physicians, professors, medical residents, medical students, and graduate students throughout the US.

• Have fun while playing a video game.
