The Medical Education applications that the college provides are constantly being updated and improved. Here you can find just a little information about some of the newest features and additions, and learn know how you can stay in the loop for the future!
Osmosis
- New high-quality questions: More than 3,850 new, high-quality questions are being added to Osmosis! All questions accompanying Osmosis videos on foundational sciences, organ systems, and USMLE® library “learn pages”—as well as those in the Quiz Builder—have been purposefully written to help contextualize learning, reflect the USMLE® style and level of difficulty, include more inclusive language and represent diverse patient encounters. All mixed-quality items (approximately 2,000) are being retired.
- New quiz builder experience and thoroughly revised question bank: The Osmosis quiz builder interface makes it easy for students to build custom quizzes based on their area and phase of study, from basic science through clinical practice. All available MCQs—more than 3,850 in total—have been reviewed, updated, and re-categorized to align with either Step 1 or Step 2 CK (and, in some cases, both) to better correspond to the learning objectives covered in their associated videos. You can begin using the new quiz-builder interface now at https://www.osmosis.org/qbank.
- Improved alignment of questions with Osmosis videos: Assess learning across every step of your students’ journey with USMLE® Step 1 and Step 2 CK-style items that correspond to the learning objectives covered within our videos. Many gross anatomy learn pages also include quick recall questions to support early learning of essential anatomy concepts.
