Actually I did go to school in Guadalajara.

And I now help teach there. If you go to Guadalajara, you know who I am. If you don't, then you have no idea what you are talking about.

Real current students at Guadalajara know me, know my experience, and know that I am employeed by the school. Our school does not do a good job preparing students for Step 1 or Step 2. That's why I went to Falcon. Now that I have, I am 100% ECFMG certified, am working for the school in the International Program, and am getting interviews for residency.

Have you figured out which one you're doing?
I'm also deciding between the two. I know I need a lot of structure, which is why i was leaning towards falcon. But i live closer to Pass, and it's a lot more convenient. Plus, my friends liked it a lot.
I've read all the comments on the two programs and I'm nowhere closer to a decision so I thought I'd ask someone who is working on the same decision. If you dont mind, what are you leaning towards and why?

Step 1

How about the Princton Review? Do they help by any chance?

I do know that people had used the USMLE World as a major tool and they did good on step 1

Yeah Baadshah,
Thanks for responding. I have Q bank and when I'm not studying for school, I use that. it's good. Falcon provides students with USMLE world and I've heard that's good too. I'm not really worried about being able to answer the questions--my school kinda' teaches to the boards. But I have a hard time retaining information. And if i dont have the information, then I can't think through the questions. That's why I'm doing a prep course...

Looking forward to retirement!
