Step 1 Resources

Step 1 Resources Heading link

There are a wide variety of Step 1 resources available to students. It is important to select resources that are going to best meet individual needs and learning strategies.

While selecting resources that fit your style is important, remember that achieving your ideal Step 1 score requires a disciplined study plan, hard work, dedication and focus. We encourage all students to meet with the Director of Academic Skills to discuss an individualized study plan and Step 1 resources.

Below is a list of several Step 1 resources that can be considered when developing a Step 1 study plan. Please note, this is not a comprehensive list of resources nor does the listing indicate endorsement by the university.
