Description
Ever wish you could learn by Osmosis? Now you can! Osmosis is a new app for medical students, designed by medical students, that sends you practice questions and resources so you can learn more and forget less. Osmosis uses proven learning science techniques like spaced repetition and testing effects to help you break out of the cram-and-forget learning cycles that are all-too-common in medical school. Whether you’re studying anatomy, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, or looking to sharpen your clinical reasoning skills, the Osmosis app has you covered. It's designed to take all that knowledge and literally diffuse it into your brain.
With Osmosis, you can:
Save Valuable Time - Organize all your resources in Osmosis and stay on track for your classes and the Boards with our USMLE Step 1 Study Schedule
Enjoy Exclusive Osmosis Prime Content - Access 1,000+ members-only Osmosis videos and quickly grasp the most difficult topics
Boost Your Scores - Master USMLE concepts with 8,000+ multiple choice questions and 15,000+ flashcards
Maximize Productivity Anywhere - Power through bite-sized quizzes and review your study materials from your phone with the Osmosis mobile app
Crowdsource Your Learning - Collaborate with friends in a shared workspace with custom notes, flashcards & questions
Osmosis has been covered in Forbes, Fast Company, TEDMED, Medscape, The Healthcare Blog and more, and has won awards from the Institute for Excellence in Education, PhD Innovation Initiative, and DreamIt Ventures.
Here's what a few of our users had to say:
"I explored a lot of other resources before ultimately deciding on Osmosis. I like that it is simple, easy to use, and very relevant to medical students. I also live by Picmonic, so the fact that they are integrated is even better! I used Osmosis to study for USMLE Step 1, and I'm glad I did because I ended up with a 258! I used it everyday for the customized schedule, which helped keep me on track and spend less time creating a study plan so that I could dedicate more time to learning. I like that the flashcards that I create in Osmosis appear right next to the slide that I got the information off of because it helps me to see the bigger picture, and lets me quickly review the material associated with the ones that I get wrong.”

“Osmosis is a powerful tool used to improve how students approach learning by developing more sophisticated and lasting understanding of the material. It is awesome that Osmosis follows popular and new neuroscience ideas on learning and improving how you study. I think Osmosis is an immediately relevant thing that most medical students would enjoy learning more about.”

Good content but poor UI
It’s probably better to just use a laptop to navigate osmosis until they improve the iOS app user interface. I find myself constantly (accidentally) skipping ahead in videos or moving on to a second video without finishing the first. Sometimes the search field won’t let me type anything in it - gets annoying. Plus the high yield notes and audio transcriptions are not available in the app yet.

So many bugs!!
This app would be fantastic if it actually worked. There are way too many bugs and crashes, especially for a service that has a monthly fee, very disappointed.

Awesome Medical App!💕
Learning was never been this cool and fun! They also allowed me free trial twice so I'm on now to my first subscription.☺️
Keep up the amazing job guys!🙌🏻💕

Issues with Subscription
The content is good, but the subscription is full of glitches and you won’t get your money’s worth. I can not access the premium content despite paying. I reported the issue, but got no reply. Will have to call Apple for a reimbursement!

Simply the best...
One of the very best out there for board review, learning or teaching. Excellent graphics, illustrations and explanations.
A+

Great content but unreliable app
None of the videos will play in the app since the new iOS update. There tends to be poor communication between the app and the website so it’s frustrating to have to watch this way, as your progress doesn’t show up online. Otherwise, the content is great and the questions are helpful.

Flashcard notifications issue
When you click on the flashcard notifications that pop up it no longer takes you directly to that question! It only opens to the main page of the app.

No iPhone X interface is the only issue
The app is great, the service is great. It just needs to be updated for the iPhone X at this point.

Can't read fonts
I have this big beautiful iPad mini 7-inch display but I can't use this app because the fonts are way too tiny.

First Year Med Student
It's simple. Its a resource that covers almost everything you need to know in medical school in the first year and the second year. Getting at the information in a variety of ways is one of the best ways to learn the volume of material covered in medical school Here is one of the best ways to do it.
Flash cards pre-built and ones you can make yourself that are built off a staggered review system, concise explanations of all diseases, embedded First Aid and Wikipedia resources, drill down into one disease or cover entire systems, and 100s of USMLE style questions to test your mettle. Easy to use, easy to excel at, and an awesome way to study while on the move. Learn on the go, or sitting down when coupled with Osmosis Prime on your computer. You have your phone with you 24/7, why not have your medical school as well?

Medical student
Osmosis is an innovative and forward thinking medical app. The timely push notification combined with the unique method of linking important medical concepts to memorable cues makes osmosis a powerful learning tool. One of the most valuable thing about this app is that it enables me to utilize my time efficiently when I am on the go (i.e. On the bus). I would highly recommend Osmosis to all medical students at any stage of their medical training.

So far so good. Haven't seen anything else like it in the usmle prep space. Innovative feedback features + good push notifications questions. Hopefully time spent on my phone will actually get more productive with this app.
