Highest-Yield Topics For The USMLE Step 1!?

I don't know if you'll ever realize the level of anxiety this video just quelled. Even though I clearly have a lot to review and understand nitty-gritty, this overview gave me hope and took me out of a pretty dark spot mentally! Thanks so much Santiago!!

Mnemonics for CYP450 Drugs: Inducers (ASMR): Anticonvulsants, St John Warts, Modafinil, Rifampin Inhibitors (ABCDE): Antimicrobials (lots), Belly (Omeprazol, Cimetidine), Cardio (Amiodarone, Calcium channel blockers), Depression (SSRIs), Extra (Grapefruit juice)

Disclaimers / Corrections: I came up with this list through my personal experience: having answered around 15.000 questions from more than 5 qbanks + experience with the real deal, so it's not like any official list taken from the USMLE. I'll be adding in this comment any other extremely high yield topic I didn't think off while making this list: 1. In 30:07 it was supposed to say Cherry Red MACULA: NOT HEMANGIOMA. 2. For Immunology: CGD is also a very high yield primary immunodeficiency 3. In cardio: other High Yield ECGs: WPW and Hyperkalemia 4. Most of embryology is included in the other systems (example neonatal ARDS)... I’d just add pharyngeal pouches/arches, and embryological origins (Ex. They give you an adrenal insufficiency case and ask from which embryological layer or structure are the adrenals derived)

Just found your page and wanted to say you are a God sent! Thank you so much for taking out the time to help us. It really means so much!

Wow thanks again, super high yield video! Will definitely be returning to watch this as I go through systems and at least once more near the end. It also put into perspective how many things I still have to study with only 2.5 more months before dedicated.... guess I better get to work
