Posted on March 30, 2009 by Archer USMLE Reviews
Unique Live Review Courses

Unique Live Review Courses

USMLE Step1 and Step2 are the exams taken each year by thousands of doctors seeking admission in to various residency programs in the USA. USMLE Step3 on the other hand, is a mandatory exam that needs to be passed in order to get a license to practice as a physician in the United States. Yearly, thousands of medical graduates and students take these exams world-wide. They are usually looking for review courses that can best prepare them to ensure guaranteed success on these very competitive exams. There are several companies on the market that provide these review courses. However, most of them are expensive and also, require students to travel several hundred miles to attend their live reviews. Consequently, some students opt not to take the review courses there by, loosing the opportunity to get efficient guidance from the experts. The students that do take these courses are usually faced by time and money constraints as they are required to shell out an extra couple of thousand dollars on accomodation and travel expenses on top of what they have already paid for an already expensive live review. Some residents who are preparing for USMLE Step3 exam have huge time constraints that they cannot attend these live reviews unless they forego their valuable vacation period.

USMLE Galaxy, LLC has recognized these obstacles that limit USMLE exam takers from obtaining valubale advice and expert teaching. As an experiment, USMLE Galaxy LLC, has an initially launched USMLE Step3 Live Review courses ( Archer live USMLE Courses, Archer USMLE Step3 Rapid Review and Dr.Red CCS Workshop) through its division, http://www.CcsWorkshop.com. These reviews were a huge success and have reached about 3000 USMLE step3 examinees in a span of 8 months. Dr.Red CCS Workshop focuses on a unique way of preparing students for USMLE Step3 CCS and hence, is a grand success with consistent demand for about 2 workshops a month. Archer rapid review for Step3 was initially started as a 2 day course but now extended to 3-days. Archer USMLE Step3 rapid review attempts to cover all frequently tested USMLE Step3 topics over a duration of 26 hours. The most helpful feature of these reviews is that you can interact and participate in the live course with out having to leave your home. These reviews have been especially useful for the residents who are very busy with their training. Now, USMLE Galaxy, LLC is also releasing live, online reviews for USMLE Step1 and Step2. These reviews will be available right on your desktop and most importantly, they are live. All you need is a computer with internet access and a microphone. If you do not have a microphone, you can use a telephone to interact with your instructor. You can participate as you do in a classroom. A “hand” icon on the software lets you notify the instructor that you have a question any time during the session. Your question will be answered by the instructor at the end of each sub-topic. These reviews can be accessed from anywhere in the world.

Balaji.T, USMLE Galaxy’s ( http://www.ccsworkshop.com)(http://www.usmlegalaxy.com) Executive Vice President of Marketing said “These interactive, live sessions bring expert teaching and classroom atmosphere to your very own home. Most of our physicians are experts in teaching, have scored very high on their USMLEs and are board certified with top 10 percentile scores on the Internal Medicine board exams. We do rotate our teaching physicians to provide uninterrupted access to these live reviews. There are several review courses in the market but nothing gets more effective and extremely affordable than our unique sessions. Some companies offer online courses in a recorded format but you do not get a chance to interact with instructor in a classroom atmosphere. Eventhough, some of our future sessions will also be pre-recorded, our teaching physicians will actively supervise these lectures and after each sub-topic they will unmute you to see if you have any questions. They will actively answer all your questions during the session itself there by bringing interactive classroom atmosphere to your very own home. We have a practice of mailing surveys to our attendees after our rapid reviews. Our post-review surveys have revealed that almost 100% attendees have rated these reviews as “Very Helpful ” and “Extremely affordable”. More than 95% have commented and rated our teaching physicians as highly effective “
