USMLE & COMLEX Prep

What file types can I upload to BoardMaster?

PowerPoint, PDF, Word documents, and even photos of handwritten notes. BoardMaster reads everything on the slides, including images, diagrams, tables, and annotations.

What exam formats can BoardMaster generate questions in?

Six formats: USMLE Step 1, USMLE Step 2 CK, COMLEX Level 1, COMLEX Level 2 CE, PANCE, and Block Exam. The first five generate full clinical vignettes. Block Exam mode generates questions matched to how your professor writes exams.

Are BoardMaster's AI-generated questions good enough for board prep?

Every question follows NBME formatting guidelines with complete clinical vignettes, real lab values, and clinically accurate distractors. The content comes from your professor's lectures, but the format trains you for boards. The QBank also has 5,000+ questions written by practicing physicians.

Can I review study sessions on BoardMaster?

Yes. You can review any study session as many times as you want. You can also hit 'Review Incorrect Only' to filter to just the questions you missed, with answers cleared. BoardMaster tracks weak spots across all sessions grouped by lecture, with a persistent suggestion card showing where to focus next.

How is BoardMaster different from UWorld or Amboss?

UWorld and Amboss are question banks — one tool each. BoardMaster is the all-in-one platform with six integrated tools: AI question generation from your lectures, AI flashcards, AI OSCE practice, AI podcasts, a 5,000+ physician-written QBank, and an AI tutor. It also tracks performance across all sessions. Students can review any session as many times as needed, or filter to just the questions they got wrong. More tools in one platform than UWorld, Amboss, and Anki combined.

Does BoardMaster work for DO students and PA students?

Yes. DO students can generate COMLEX Level 1 and Level 2 CE questions from their lectures including OMM content. PA students can generate PANCE-style questions matched to their program's curriculum. The QBank includes dedicated COMLEX question sets.

What is Block Exam mode on BoardMaster?

Block Exam mode generates questions matched to how your professor writes exams, not how boards are formatted. It is designed for the class exam you have next week. Students use board-style formats for long-term prep and Block Exam mode for specific class tests.

How do BoardMaster's AI flashcards work?

Upload a lecture and BoardMaster generates up to 300 flashcards in seconds with medical images and annotated diagrams. Spaced repetition is built in. Import existing Anki decks in 30 seconds or export BoardMaster flashcards to Anki with images included.
