What's included in the bundle?Product
All 22 medical subjects as high-quality PDFs, totaling 2,800+ pages, 2,243+ illustrations, and 1,423+ mnemonics. You also get 3 free bonuses worth $97: a USMLE high-yield cheat sheet, a 90-day study schedule template, and 500+ anatomy flashcards.
What format are the notes in?Product
All 22 subjects come as high-quality PDFs. They open on any device (phone, tablet, laptop, desktop), you can annotate them in apps like GoodNotes or Notability, and they're fully print-ready if you prefer paper.
Who writes the notes?Product
Every page is written by qualified medical professionals who've gone through the same exams you're preparing for. We don't outsource to non-clinical writers, and every subject is reviewed for clinical accuracy before release.
How are these different from other resources like First Aid or BRS?Product
Our notes work alongside resources like First Aid and BRS, not against them. Where they're dense and exam-focused, ours are structured for understanding first, then recall. The mnemonics and illustrations are what make us different. Most students use us as their primary "explainer" and Q-banks/First Aid for testing recall.
Do you offer updates?Product
Yes. As long as your subscription is active, you get every update free. When we revise a subject, add new content, or release a new edition, the latest version is automatically available. We update notes monthly to keep up with current guidelines and exam changes.
What languages are the notes in?Product
All notes are written in English, which is the standard language for USMLE, PLAB, UKMLA, MCCQE, AMC, COMLEX, and IFOM. We chose English because every major medical licensure exam tests in English, and our students come from 80+ countries.
Can I share the PDFs with my study group?Product
No. The notes are copyrighted and licensed for personal use only. Each subscription is single-user and the PDFs are watermarked with your account details. Sharing them violates the license and risks termination of your access. If your friends want in, point them to the 7-day trial so they can try it themselves.
How do I access the notes after purchase?Access
Instantly. Right after checkout you'll be redirected to a confirmation page with download links, and you'll receive the same links by email. Save the email since it's your access record.
Can I read the notes offline?Access
Yes. Once downloaded, the PDFs live on your device. No internet needed. No app required. They work in any standard PDF reader (Adobe, Apple Books, Google Drive, GoodNotes, etc.).
Can I print the notes?Access
Absolutely. All PDFs are print-optimized with clean margins, readable fonts, and full-color illustrations that hold up well in print. Many students study from a mix of digital and printed copies.
What if I lose access to my files?Access
Email our support team with your purchase details and we'll restore your access right away. You can also re-download the files from your account at any time. Your access never expires.
Can I share my account with a friend or classmate?Access
No. Each subscription is for a single user. Accounts are tied to a single email and login, and the system flags suspicious activity (multiple simultaneous devices, IP locations, etc.). If a classmate wants in, the cheapest path for them is the 7-day trial. We're a small team and shared accounts directly impact our ability to keep prices low.
Are these notes suitable for USMLE Step 1, 2, and 3?Exams
Yes. Our notes cover the high-yield content tested across USMLE Step 1, 2, and 3. The fundamentals don't change between exam steps. What changes is how the content is tested. We pair best with a Q-bank like UWorld and a recall tool like Anki for full coverage.
Will these work for PLAB and UKMLA?Exams
Yes. PLAB Part 1, PLAB Part 2, and UKMLA are all well-covered. The clinical examinations and clinical investigations notes are especially useful for OSCE-style stations. Many UK final-year and IMG students use our bundle as their primary structured resource.
What about MCCQE, AMC, COMLEX, and IFOM?Exams
All covered. MCCQE Part 1 and 2 (Canada), AMC MCQ and Clinical (Australia), COMLEX (USA osteopathic), and IFOM are all built on the same medical fundamentals our notes teach. Students from 80+ countries use them for licensure prep.
I'm in pre-clinical years, are these too advanced?Exams
Not at all. They're built to scale with you. Pre-clinical students use the anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, and histology notes as a foundation. Clinical students lean more on the system-based and clinical exam notes. Buy once, use throughout med school.
Why is it only $29 to start?Pricing
$29 gets you full access for the first 7 days so you can try everything before committing. After the 7-day trial, your subscription continues at $97 per week for ongoing access, updates, and new content. We keep the trial low because we believe in the product. Try it, and only stay if it's working for you.
Can I buy just one subject instead of the bundle?Pricing
The full bundle is the only option right now. Your subscription includes all 22 subjects, so you're never paying for individual subjects. Even if you only actively study a handful at a time, you have access to everything you might need throughout med school.
Is this a subscription? Will I be charged again?Pricing
Yes, MedSchoolZone is a subscription. You start with $29 for the first 7 days, then it renews at $97 per week after the trial ends. You can cancel anytime from your account before the trial ends if you don't want to continue, and you'll never be charged the weekly rate.
Do you offer student or group discounts?Pricing
The $29 trial price is already the lowest pricing we offer, designed specifically with med students in mind. We don't have stacked student discounts on top, but we do run promotional codes from time to time. For larger groups (10+ students from the same school or program), email our support team and we'll see what we can arrange.
How do I cancel my subscription?Refunds
You can cancel anytime from your customer account, no questions asked. If you cancel before your 7-day trial ends, you won't be charged the weekly rate. If you cancel mid-week after the trial, your access stays active until the end of the current billing period and you won't be charged again.
What's your refund policy?Refunds
If you're unsatisfied during your 7-day trial, email us and we'll refund your $29 in full. After the trial, you can cancel anytime to stop future weekly charges. For unused weekly periods, contact us and we'll review on a case-by-case basis.
How long do refunds take?Refunds
Refunds are processed within 1-3 business days from when we approve them. Depending on your bank or card issuer, the funds may take an additional 3-5 business days to appear in your account.
Can I pause my subscription?Refunds
We don't currently offer a formal pause feature, but you can cancel anytime and resubscribe later when you're ready to study again. Your previous account details and any saved progress are kept for 12 months in case you come back. Many students cancel after exam blocks and resume during the next study cycle.
How do I contact support?Support
Use our contact form and we'll get back to you within 24 hours. We're available 7 days a week, and most issues are resolved on the first reply.
Can I request a topic or suggest content?Support
Yes, we love this. Customers get priority email support as one of the bonuses, which means content requests go straight to our medical writers. If a topic is requested often, it gets added in the next monthly update.
I found an error in the notes. What do I do?Support
Please report it. Email us with the subject, page, and the issue and our medical team will review it immediately. Confirmed corrections go into the next update, which all customers get free.
