Description

Performing well on an exam goes beyond mere repetition. Studying effectively is an essential skill that every student needs to ace their exams in the minimum time possible without burning out. This course will help you master the art of studying by teaching scientifically proven study techniques and memory hacks that will significantly boost your performance on exams!

I start by explaining how to choose the best resources to ace your exam, how to create a study plan and study schedule, and how to increase your study productivity. Then we will go over evidence-based study techniques including active recall, spaced repetition, memory palace, mnemonics, and many others. Lastly, I share tips on how to study for long hours without burning out, question-solving strategies, how to take notes, and tips for the final days of your preparation.

This course is built on scientifically proven techniques that helped me consistently rank at the top of my medical school class of over 400 students and in the 99th percentile of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and annual plastic surgery exam!

These techniques were integral to my success during my research time at two world-renowned institutions, the Mayo Clinic (#1 hospital in the world) and MD Anderson Cancer Center (#1 cancer center in the world) where I published over 120 publications in 3 years.

I continue to rely on these strategies as a plastic surgery resident at the #1 plastic surgery residency program in the US, while also managing a YouTube channel and a company that helps medical students match into residency in the US and learn about research.

I hope this class makes a significant impact on your exam performance and studying as it did for me. I wish you good luck on your future endeavors.

Hi there,

I’m Malke Asaad, a plastic surgery resident in the US. When I’m not at the hospital, I help students from around the world learn better techniques to study and ace their exams. I also have a company to help medical students match into residency in the US and learn about research.

Having tutored many students over the last few years, I realized how better study techniques can significantly boost students’ performance and help them excel on their exams in a shorter time period. In this course, I share my experience on how to study for exams, which has helped me consistently rank at the top of my medical school class of over 400 students and in the 99th percentile of the United States Medical Licensing Examination and annual plastic surgery exam!

I started my YouTube channel in 2020 to help students around the world. My passion for teaching led me to record a detailed course on how to do research based on my research experience at two world-renowned institutions, the Mayo Clinic (#1 hospital in the world) and MD Anderson Cancer Center (#1 cancer center in the world). This course has helped over 500 students and continues to inspire students from around the world to do research and make people’s lives better.
