Practice the real thing, and be marked the way the exam marks you
Over 900 practice questions and stations, 647 of them live simulated patients who reveal only what you ask. Every one is marked on the 7 MCC competencies, quoting your own transcript. Add the course for 77 lessons and 3 full mock exams.
What another cycle costs
A missed cycle is a year. Here is what that year costs, from the bodies that charge it.
- Sitting the NAC Examination again
- $3,320
- Entering the match again, applications included
- $1,167
- A year of a resident's pay, not earned
- $73,367
- Preparing for it properly, once
- $1,299
Every plan on this page costs less than the exam fee on its own.
What you have already paid to be allowed to try
Account setup, verification, Part I, the exam, the match. Paid months apart, so nobody sees them added up:
$6,554
None of it improved anybody's chances. It buys permission to try. Preparation is the smallest line here and the only one that changes the result.
