Daily Schedule

(Subject to change)

In keeping our programs small we are able to focus on each student’s progress throughout the program.

No lectures, all higher order thinking active-classroom learning style. 

Our days are divided into three main components:

1. Pharm and Micro drill. (Offered in both the 4-week and 6- week program)
2. ★System Based Supplemental Instruction® (SBSI) replaces the traditional lecture style of reviewing the Basic Sciences. Here students analyze and explore complex and fundamental high- yield topics. During this time we review the Systems, Biochemistry, Immunology, Pathology, Physiology, Biostats, and other high yield topics. (Offered in the 6-week program only)
3. Question group: here we assess how each student integrates information into the questions and if he/she is able to note the distractors in the questions and use critical thinking when answering board-style questions. (Offered in the 4-week and 6-week program).

★System Based Supplemental Instruction® (SBSI)

(Offered in the 6-week program only)

Supplemental Instruction has proven results in:

• enabling students to increase long-term retention
• develop strategies for understanding and comprehending the material
• develop strategies for grasping more challenging areas of study
• allows the student, together with the SI Instructor, to pinpoint areas where the student still needs assistance in understanding the material
• enables students to master course content while they develop and integrate effective learning and study strategies

The difference between the 4-week and 6 -week programs:

Our traditional 6-week program incorporates more review of content and the application and integration of their knowledge into the questions. Class starts at 8 AM and ends at 3:30 PM. A lot of homework is scheduled for when class lets out. (Subject to change). 

Our 4-week program only reviews knowledge as it pertains to the questions we do in class, no supplemental review is offered. This program is designed for students who have a stronger knowledge base and are needing a better approach to questions to increase their scores. Students report higher score increases within the first week, even in their weaker areas. Class starts at 8 AM and ends around 2:30 PM. Less homework is scheduled than the 6-week program. (Subject to change). 

To accomplish the full benefit of our program students are required to attend all sessions and complete homework daily.
