I would highly recommend AMBOSS to any medical student or resident looking for an all encompassing resource. I started using it to help me prepare for my clerkships and Step 2. I ended up matching at my first choice in residency and continue to use AMBOSS daily as I am in my intern year. The ability to have a single streamlined, concise, and up to date resource to look up diagnostic information as well as treatment options helped me honor the majority of my third year clerkships.

I have used AMBOSS during all four years of medical school. During my clerkship years, I used AMBOSS primarily for shelf-studying and for STEP 2. They have specific study plans for all clerkships and STEP 2, which helped me to excel in all my exams. There is a clinician option that allows you to see treatment plans and labs needed for diagnoses while on rounds.

Amboss changed the game and my only wish was that I started using it sooner! Once I started incorporating Amboss into my studying, my scores started drastically improving. I've been using it to study from day 1 of clinicals and my shelf scores have blown any other performance out of the water so far. I only wish I had started during my M1 year!
