AMBOSS has been beyond useful as a first-line resource for comprehensive and concise information. I use it almost daily for better understanding different diseases, drugs, and basic science information. I have loved it for my case-based learning course and also really appreciate the built in videos from Osmosis, Picmonic, and more to aid in my learning of complex topics. Additionally, the QBank is also a great resource when studying for my exams during preclinical and I have also heard it is also very useful for STEP 1 studying alongside UWorld so am excited to use it for that. They have great and concise images and fact sheets to help all learning styles as well and have good 3D anatomy system for learning anatomy as well. I am super grateful I invested in my education with this resource because I know it will be invaluable in the remainder of medical school and the start of residency as well.

Amboss as a study resource has been transformative in my studying. The knowledge bank has allowed me to get through lectures in record time because I know that all the little details are found in Amboss in a well organized way. I'd previously taken written notes with a focus on organizing details into larger principles, ideally to boost retention and help me think big picture about what I was learning. I was amazed to find that the Amboss knowledge bank had its info structured almost exactly like the notes I was already taking. The question bank has also been fantastic. Because it has the option to give you hints, it has a middle ground between a blank question and a full answer. This gives me flexibility to get more out of the question, especially when I'm almost to the answer.

I find the AMBOSS question bank, database, and anki integration to be essential tools in my medical school studying. The question banks helps me evaluate my weakness and the database is a great time saver and resource to look up information quickly. It is particularly useful when I am doing Anki. With the ability to hover over the keywords linked directly to the database, I find there is much less of barrier when it comes to looking up information and I do it more. All in all, AMBOSS has allowed me to get more out of my study time

AMBOSS has been an incredible resource that has changed the way I study in the classroom and at home. The database is so detailed and gets me the information I need the moment I need it. The question bank and the database apps work great, and I continue to recommend the Anki extension to people who don't have it yet. I highly recommend that people use AMBOSS to advance their knowledge and fill in gaps faster than before.

Amboss has helped me put medical material from the first two years of school into the context of patient cases. I feel much more prepared to form a differential diagnosis and think through body systems after using it for just a couple months.

I've been using Anki since the beginning of my organ blocks in medical school, and the Anki add-on has proven to be a great addition. This feature has saved me a significant amount of time by providing quick definitions or explanations right within the cards.The question blocks have been amazing, and I believe they've played a crucial role in improving my performance on both in-house assessments and NBME exams. Anki, coupled with its add-on features, has become an indispensable tool in my medical school journey, greatly enhancing my learning experience and overall success in exams.

I honestly love this resource. It’s so detailed and gives so much additional information that helps you see the full picture. I’m also a visual learner, so having the pictures are also incredibly helpful. I also love how there are certain keywords that are underlined that shows you the information is high yield, or highlighted to show its clinical significance. Then, in case I forget what something does, I can just over my mouse over that particular word and am given a quick snippet to jog my memory or help me connect the dots. Truly, I value Amboss and its contribution to my education.

Absolutely! Here's a testimonial for you:I absolutely love using Amboss during medical school! It's more than just a study tool; it's a dynamic learning platform that challenges me to explore beyond the required material. Amboss's thoughtfully validated articles, videos, and images help me delve into the clinical applicability of what I'm learning, enriching my understanding. The practice questions are invaluable for STEP preparation, continually testing my knowledge throughout modules. What sets Amboss apart is its detailed study plans, tailored to my academic strengths and weaknesses, ensuring an effective and personalized learning experience. Amboss has truly become an indispensable companion on my journey through medical school.

I use Amboss for both board prep and to supplement lectures given at the COM. The pace and quantity of lectures doesn't inspire one to ask questions during lectures, many of which are pre-recorded, so I use the Amboss Knowledge database daily to search for answers to my questions as they come up. The information in the Knowledge database is really well organized and cuts down time spent searching for the medically relevant info I need. I wish I started this year 1.

I love using Amboss as an encyclopedia along with my schools course packs. It helps to really fill in the blanks and put everything together clinically and physiologically! The questions are also great for practice, and the overlays on the histo images are a godsend.

AMBOSS is one of the most useful and comprehensive study banks out there, supporting me through my M1 and M2 years especially. I would not have had such an easy time finding practice questions to test my knowledge and secure a strong grade in my pre-clinical courses without AMBOSS. I use the AMBOSS Qbank on a daily basis because their questions can be sorted by difficulty and subject, so I can easily refine my study objectives. They also provide useful data such as what topics I need the most work on as well as specific articles to read to target those weak areas. The AMBOSS anki add on is also an outstanding resource that simplifies my study strategies to reduce resource overload. I credit AMBOSS for my success so far in medical school!

AMBOSS has really helped me focus my study efforts during the preclinical years and for COMLEX level 1 prep. The questions are well written, easy to understand, and reflective of what I expect to see on my upcoming board exams. Additionally, the AMBOSS archives are easy to search, easy to use, and thorough without overwhelming the reader with information. I recommend AMBOSS to anyone looking for questions or a database to help them through their med school journey.

AMBOSS has been a huge aspect of my success through my first two years of medical school. The articles present a lot of information in a very organized and easily consumable way. I find myself using them when I have a quick question to answer and when I need to more thoroughly understand a disease. Each article also directly links you to pertinent practice questions which is so convenient. Creating a test out of the practice questions is also very customizable so I can easily create a question bank that is the most helpful for the particular subjects I'm studying at that moment. The platform is easy to use and incredibly informative. I'm looking forward to seeing how AMBOSS can help me during my clinical years and beyond.

I started using AMBOSS when I heard about the Anki-add on feature during my first year of medical school. Anyone who is using Anki absolutely needs to have this feature! Hovering over words and recognized disease states quickly allows me to recall and visualize material and read more about it if I need to. The articles have high-yield imaging and highlighted features that I've seen on my dozens of medical exams, and saves me time from an internet search. It's quick and user friendly, and the Qbanks are what sold me on AMBOSS. They are challenging and an accurate representation of board-style questions that my school and national examiners use, so I couldn't have asked for a better platform for my learning!

AMBOSS was a core study resource for STEP1 and my first clinical year. I am a visual learner and the color-coded charts and drawings were so helpful with recall. The AMBOSS knowledge app was also my go-to quick reference for clinical pearls on the wards. Overall super user-friendly and would highly recommend!

At the beginning of medical school I started using AMBOSS simply because a classmate got us a group deal and said it was a good resource. Now I find myself using it daily, whether I’m studying Shelf practice questions or in clinic using the database. Further, despite current dogma around other resources, AMBOSS was my only QBank for STEP 1 and will continue to be that way for Shelf exams due to the quality and depth of explanations.

I have been using Amboss since the start of M1 and I can't emphasize enough how much it has helped me in every part of my med school journey. It has given me more confidence in my knowledge and has supplemented my clinical skills as well. I use just about every feature the site has to offer and I have yet to find any critiques.

Initially, I was hesitant to commit to AMBOSS due to the cost and overwhelming number of resources available in medical school. However, after using AMBOSS throughout the first 18 months of our preclinical curriculum, I could not be happier with my purchase. The Anki add-on is a life-saver and helps consolidate the majority of my learning into one place. The question bank is also excellent and includes many unique features, like the 'key info' and 'attending tip' buttons, that help differentiate it from other question banks. The learning library is also extremely helpful and includes outstanding figures and visuals. As a visual learner, AMBOSS has helped me tremendously. I have only heard good things about AMBOSS for the clinical phase of medical school, so I am looking forward to using it for the next two years!

Amboss is probably the most useful resource I have used. I use it in conjunction with my Anki every day and do the practice questions provided. I also have amazing feedback from my bestfriend (who is also an ambossador) that it has been an amazing resource during his 1st year of residency in Diagnostic Radiology. I would love to share more about how this has been amazing as well and be a resource for students in my medical school!

The AMBOSS Q-Bank has helped me throughout my first two years of medical school. The content covered is relevant to boards material and also to our in-house exams. I prefer the problem-solving approach to AMBOSS questions over just memorizing ANKI cards. I've learned so much and will continue to use the platform!

AMBOSS has been incredibly helpful in my preclinical years so far. It has all the high-yield information you need to know for USMLE Step exams presented in a clear and concise manner. The question bank is expansive with quality questions and has great explanations for every answer choice. I use the app on my phone to look up quick facts on the go whenever I need to. It truly is making a huge difference in my understanding of the information presented to me.
