Connecticut FAQ

Common Questions From Connecticut

Do you work with students based in Connecticut?

Yes. All tutoring is online via Zoom, so physical location does not affect eligibility. We run sessions on Eastern time when that works for you, or on your preferred time zone. Most students schedule evenings or early mornings depending on rotations.

Can I use tutoring if I attend Yale School of Medicine or a related Connecticut school?

Yes. The 5 Failure Modes diagnostic framework and the data-driven study plan approach work the same regardless of school. Students from Yale School of Medicine and UConn School of Medicine and other Connecticut schools have used the program successfully.

I am an IMG planning to match in Connecticut. Can this help?

Yes. The tutoring service is designed for all three pathways: first-time takers at US MD or DO schools, retakers after a Step 1 failure, and IMGs preparing for USMLE. IMG students often need additional work on test-taking mechanics for the USMLE format and on identifying content gaps that were not emphasized in their original curriculum.

How long does it take to prepare for Step 1 from Connecticut?

Dedicated study length depends on your baseline NBME score and goal, not your state. Strong-foundation students typically need 6 to 8 weeks, weak-foundation first-time takers need 10 to 16 weeks, and retakers need 12 to 20 weeks. We set the timeline after reviewing your data in the free diagnostic consult.

How does the Good Fit Guarantee work?

Your first paid tutoring session is risk-free. If it is not a good fit after session one, you do not pay. No questions asked.
