I think this was a great overview course for the high-yield concepts in each of the MCAT sections. I wish that some of the lower yield topics were maybe briefly hit on and some strategies for answering questions were talked about in the science sections, but overall I thought it was a great course!
This is a really concise and great crash course. It has all the high-yield topics covered in a great flow. All the tutors are exceptionally good in their work. Every concept that is not understood is being explained not matter how many time they have to repeat it. I am glad I took this course.

I would highly recommend the course whether for step 1 or even med school studies as it covers majority of the topics
It was a good experience. They definitely stick to HY topics, and that’s coming from someone who took most of the NBMEs.
I just completed the crash course and I truly loved everything about it, how amazing, patient, and knowledgeable the tutors were! It was a great and much needed course which did make me realize what my weak points were and what subjects required more attention, I am yet to give my exam but I am hoping I will clear it, IA! I recommend this course to anyone who's short on time and stressing about what hy topics to cover. Best of luck!!

Incredible course with an incredible team of tutors. Definitely worth every penny. The 7 day bootcamp is geared towards high yield information that is commonly tested throughout NBME forms. Tutors are so well-versed in the material, it’s no surprise they all high passed their licensing exams, they are brilliant! I’d recommend this course to anyone in need of a refresh before their exam or anyone who’s wondering on what they should focus on during their prep.
A 10/10 experience!

I’ve had a great experience with the crash course so far, I like how it uses practice questions to work through all the concepts. All the tutors have been very helpful too and answered all our questions. Learning how to answer questions and narrow down the important clues was also a crucial step which helped me improve on practice tests. The high yield notes for each organ system are good for rapid review, since they often give a vignette for how a condition might present and what the workup/next step/treatment would be.

So helpful for those who do not have enough time to prepare.
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 too long to finish or if you’re short on time, like I am. There were some typos in the anki and pdfs, but I’m still very happy with this company and will enroll next year for Step 2 CK.

I’ve enjoyed my services with The Match Guy. They’ve helped me pass Step 2 CK and I’m currently using them for Step 3 prep.

I had a really good experience with the 1-1 tutoring for Step 1, and I highly recommend it to anyone in need of guidance during their preparation. I struggled a lot with test anxiety, so having structured guidance and learning how to approach Step 1 effectively was incredibly helpful for me. Dr. Omar Alhomsi was my tutor, and he helped me create a solid study schedule, improve my critical thinking for answering questions, and review NBMEs thoroughly. He was always available whenever I had doubts or questions, and he made the entire preparation process much more efficient and manageable. Thanks to his support and guidance, I was able to pass Step 1. I’m very thankful for the experience and highly recommend the tutoring.

The CC for step2ck was quite helpful. The tutors made sure we have extensive coverage of all the high-yield topics, with no hesitation to answer each of our questions. The content was selected very well.

Joining this course was very helpful because the tutors focus on making sure you understand the concepts by explaining them well and then give you annoted jotings to help save time. So, it is both effective and time saving

I had an amazing experience with The Match Guy tutoring and especially with my tutor, Priyanshi Gandhi, during Step 2 prep. Priyanshi was incredibly organized and consistently came to every session prepared. She carefully reviewed my mistakes on past NBME's to identify knowledge gaps I did not even know about. She was able to pinpoint the high-yield topics and test-taking strategies that I otherwise would not have realized I needed to focus on.
She also helped create a realistic study plan tailored to my goals, and over about 3 weeks of tutoring, I saw my score improve by almost 30 points. Priyanshi was always available to answer questions during this stressful period.
I would highly, highly recommend Priyanshi and The Match Guy tutoring company to anyone preparing for Step 2. I also really appreciated that The Match Guy offers a free trial with two different tutors so students can find the best fit for their learning style. It made the process feel very supportive from the beginning.
Update: Just got my score back last week and I am thrilled to share I scored a 250! Could not have done it without Priyanshi's guidance :)

The review was just what I needed. A quick review of all the high yield topics that filled in gaps that I was missing. The concepts are more organized and understandable now. I wish I did this earlier. I would definitely recommend it.

Highly recommended crash course, with excellent, dedicated tutors.

TLDR: The 7-Days Step 2CK/3 High-Yield Crash Course exceeded my expectation, and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants a thorough review, a high-yield quick learning of materials they don't know, a look into the high scorer's brains, and/or studying accountability.
I was definitely hesitant of this bootcamp at first because I found this course randomly and there weren't that many reviews on it. However, I needed something right away because I felt stagnant in my studies and from my past experience with exam-taking, I was lacking all of the above (T.T). I am super glad I signed up and completed this course because I saw my UWorld average scores increase 20+ points on day 2 of bootcamp. Like, this wasn't confirmation bias or my conscious trying to justify the price, like it really helped as it showed up on my UWorld scores! If anything, I wished I would've taken this bootcamp before I started my dedicated...

I loved that it was a week. It was super efficient and made me feel like I got through all the content I needed to without using way more time to do so. I did focused question sets of content we covered at the end of day and I think there has only been 1 question that had a topic we didn’t cover and my %correct jumped up. I would recommend doing it live instead of watching videos if possible with your schedule and you're able to do 8-10 hrs a day because you can ask questions and participate which I think makes a big difference instead of skipping through vids.
The tutors seem to really care and explain things very well. I think this course was created to help international students do well on step so every tutor is international and had an accent, some more than others. I just mention because sometimes they were hard to understand, but I definitely would still do this course 1000% and will rewatch for step 3. They include anki decks, pdfs, the presentations they use in the lectures and are super responsive. Definitely worth the money if you put the effort in.

It was straight to the point and thorough, I'm glad I went with the match guy.
