Failed my USMLE exam with PASS PROGRAM. Took the 5 weeks course was a big mistake. Beware of this scam- He double charged my card and refused to refund my money back. This scam company recently moved from Chicago to houston because they cheated so many students in Chicago. I failed my step1 exam after taking Pass program from Dr Francis, he is not organized and takes tangents without focusing on the material.. I memorized his absolutely terrible notes and didn't help me much. Definitely don't recommend this scam program. The online videos were a total waste you had to sit through all the nonsense tangents and fast forward his material is badly outdated. He has no business teaching any medical student in 2023 he should be ashamed of himself for robbing medical students. When I called about advise of what i should do he started yelling at me on the phone didn't have time for me and hung up, just wanted to warn you all to stay away from PASS program its a scam and waste of time. here is there scam location-
PASS PROGRAM
2 Northpoint Drive, Houston, TX 77060
they recently moved from Chicago because they cheated so many students in Chicago, and they have failed several of my friends I don't recommend them at all. They should be renamed "FAIL SCAM PROGRAM"
I recently paid for PASS PROGRAM AND they are a fraud and scam, they sent two african tutors to teach me and didnt do a good job, they only showed up to one session and didnt offer the full course
Expensive Lack of Learning Experience.
Decided to wait until I was done with the program as I was sent this trust pilot in the middle of the program.
I personally would not recommend this program again only from an online student perspective. I had tutoring and did the extended program with Dr. Francis. Firstly, the tutors, are always different, never the same. I found them to be quite cold, and misunderstanding when it comes to students feelings. If a student tells you they are dealing with a chronic illness, maybe dont suggest that they should be waking up at 5:30am to start studying? And to use my First Aid book to roast marshmallows? Honestly if you choose to use this program - I would STILL use first aid. I cannot stress this enough. They would constantly say how you dont need it, however, Dr. Francis doesnt cover much for NBME material, step 1, sure, but not any better.
Also, when you follow along (book and lecture) it makes NO sense..... the book doesnt match, so you will spend more time CTRL+F on the PDF than actually being able to focus in class. Honestly, the price, not worth it in my humble opinion, but the only good that came out of it is that I thought myself more outside the course than while in it. Personally would not recommend this program, just because of the lack of tutors sincerity and the poor organize of this entire course.
