USMLE Vault · Step 1

You're not short on resources.
You're drowning in them.

First Aid, UWorld, Sketchy, Mehlman, Anki, NBMEs, a hundred PDFs… and still no idea what to actually do each day.

The problem was never the resources. It's that nobody put them in order for you. USMLE Vault is the one place that does — it sequences everything into a single, day-by-day system so you stop collecting resources and start using them. Here's what's inside (and it's free for 3 days). 👇

What you get

1

📅 The Schedule

Your day-by-day plan

Put in your exam date and how many hours a day you can study. The Vault builds your entire plan — system by system, in the right order — and tells you exactly what to do each day: which First Aid pages to read, which micro, which MCQs, which Mehlman videos, when to do Anki, how to handle UWorld, and when to take each NBME. Every task is timed, tracked, and checked off as you go. The systems are sequenced on purpose — each one sets up the next.

→ Zero guessing. Just open it and study.

🎓 The University

A video for every step

Never wonder "how am I supposed to do this?" again. The University has walkthrough videos for every system and every strategy — how to do Sketchy, how to review an NBME, how to use UWorld, how to build your timeline — plus a Files section with the high-yield PDFs you actually need (like the Neil/Randy Neil high-yield set). It's the part that turns the plan into action.

→ Someone's guiding you the whole way.

📖 The Vault

First Aid that finally teaches

First Aid is a list of facts with no teacher. The Vault goes through it page by page and adds the missing layer — a plain-English ELI5 for every page, the core teaching point, a "how is this tested?" breakdown, and a quick MCQ at the bottom to lock it in. It's the bridge between reading First Aid and crushing UWorld — all 16 systems, page by page.

🃏 The Anki Decks

Active recall that retains

Two lean, page-anchored decks — not 30,000-card monsters. The Foundation Anki (~2,400 cards, every card tied to a First Aid page) lets you revise the entire book by active recall in under a week. The NBME Booster (forms 20–33, system by system) breaks the score ceiling by front-loading the patterns the NBME keeps recycling.

→ Recall the whole book, fast.
One resource. One plan. One place.
Stop drowning. Start studying with a system built by a physician who coached 100+ students to a 98% pass rate — free for your first 3 days.
