This is probably one of the highest yield podcasts I have ever made for the USMLE exams. Strongly consider listening to this ahead of your test. The USMLEs, on every single exam, love to throw in eye findings in the context of other things to test your ability to identify certain pathologies. This podcast, in comprehensive fashion, details many of these pathologies.
Category: Neurology – USMLE Step 1
Divine Intervention Episode 435: Diseases of The Neuromuscular Junction (for Step 1-3)
In this short but ultra HY podcast, I discuss the neuromuscular junction disorders that you need to know for your exams. The NBMEs have in recent times become astute at testing this material in unique ways. This podcast should really help you nail these disorders on your exams. I compare and contrast things, discuss classic/unusual presentations, and explain relevant pathophysiology.
Divine Intervention Episode 399 – The 3 Confusing Poisonings (HY for Step 1-3)
In this HY podcast, I discuss salient means for differentiating poisonings from carbon monoxide, cyanide, and methemoglobin. I spend time discussing physiology that should help you navigate these questions with ease on exams. I conclude with a life lesson relevant to most medical students/trainees.
Divine Intervention Episode 374 – Spinal Cord Lesions (for Step 1-3)
This podcast is essentially a continuation of Episode 371. In this episode, I review the HY spinal cord lesions that are classically tested on all the USMLE exams.
Divine Intervention Episode 372 – The Clutch Headache Podcast (for Step 1-3)
Headaches are very routinely tested on the USMLE exams. This short podcast addresses pretty much everything you need to know about them. For those taking Step 2CK/3 or COMLEX Level 2/3 within the next 3-4 weeks, email me via the website if you’re interested in the course taking place next week.
Divine Intervention Episode 371 – The Spinal Cord (for Step 1-3)
In this short but floridly HY podcast, I introduce the spinal cord and make some integrations along the way. Neurology is not a memorization science. It’s a rule-based science. This podcast addresses many of these rules so understanding a future podcast I will make (on spinal cord lesions) will be a lot easier. Neurology comes up on the USMLE exams and most of the questions are easy if you just added a little time and attention to studying it.
Divine Intervention Episode 365 – The Eye Part 2 (for Step 1-3)
In this episode, I continue our in-depth series on the eye that was started in Ep 361.
Divine Intervention Episode 361 – The Eye Part 1 (for Step 1-3) + Step 2CK/3 Course Reminder
The eye is a nebulous topic for many people to understand. My goal with this podcast is to help you thoroughly understand and answer NBME questions related to this complex organ.
Divine Intervention Episode 315 – The Clutch Circle of Willis Podcast (Step 1-3).
In this ultra HY podcast, I discuss (and explain pathophysiology) all you need to know, including clinical integrations, for the circle of Willis. Short podcast, but super HY to score easy points on your USMLEs. For more info on the Step 2CK/3 course coming up next week, shoot me an email via the website.
Divine Intervention Episode 311 – The Clutch CSF Findings and Brain Imaging USMLE Podcast (for Step 1-3).
The new USMLE exams have a strong disposition towards describing findings instead of giving you buzzwords. In this extremely HY podcast, I discuss about 80 pathologies and their classic CSF findings/brain imaging NBME descriptors. There are no attached slides but there’s easily lots of Qs to be gotten right from this podcast.
