DIP Ep 639: USMLE Free 86 Series 1 (Q1-10, for Step 2/3)

The USMLEs have a series of very good “Free 120” style questions they call “SPEX” questions that are freely available on their website. It’s a collection of 86 very high yield questions. The goal with this series is to walk through all 86 of them (like I did for the free 120) with an emphasis on pathophysiology, understanding, and a discussion of test taking strategies. You 100% should work through these and listen to them before Step 2 or 3. I am also attaching the PDF here. spex-practice-test ...

DIP Ep 637: Mechanisms Over Memorization (Current USMLE Question Patterns)

DIP Ep 637: Mechanisms Over Memorization (Current USMLE Question Patterns)

The USMLEs have gotten stranger over the years. In this podcast, I discuss the “nuance” behind many USMLE question patterns. The goal here is not necessarily to teach content (although I do some of that here to buttress my points). The focus is more on emphasizing CURRENT patterns that can help guide your studying and question answering on your exams. Worth your while for sure. https://divineinterventionpodcasts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/dip-ep-637-usmle-patterns.mp3 Audio Download...

In this podcast, I discuss travel medicine. This is a topic that is heavily tested on all the USMLE exams. People tend to get so many of these questions wrong.
