📚 Study Tools
These are the study tools I actually reach for when I need to lock in. Nothing extra, just things that make studying feel a little more organized and less overwhelming.
I am not even going to lie, this is a shameless plug, but I made these resources because I actually needed them. Everything in my Stan Store is based on materials I used during my classes. I am talking practice exams, ebooks, cheat sheets, worksheets...
PREM.IEEE (@PREMIEEE) | Stan
I know this one is a little controversial, but I would genuinely be doing a disservice if I did not include this because I would not have survived some of my pre health classes without it. NotebookLM is an AI tool where you upload your own materials ...
Google NotebookLM | AI Research Tool & Thinking Partner
This one is also a little controversial, but I still think it is worth mentioning. StudyFetch is very similar to NotebookLM like it can do everything NotebookLM can do, but there are a few things it does differently that I actually like. It can turn ...
StudyFetch | The Top AI Learning Platform
Sketchy is one of those tools that actually makes hard topics easier to understand instead of just throwing information at you. It turns a lot of STEM and medical concepts into visual stories, which makes it way easier to remember things long-term. I...
Sketchy MCAT Prep Course | Visual MCAT Lessons & Practice
This one is mainly for iPad users. If you do not have one, paper notes will still work, but this definitely makes things easier. Goodnotes is a high quality note taking app that I have used for a long time. I was lucky enough to get Goodnotes 5 when ...
Goodnotes for web
Yes, this is also a shameless plug, but I did not spend all this time curating this just for people to ignore it. I made an Amazon wishlist specifically for pre-health students with things I would actually use. It is a mix of aesthetic and functional...
Amazon Wish List: Your Favorites and Must-Haves
The good old reliable that got a lot of us through school before they switched everything to subscriptions… Quizlet. I am not going to lie, Quizlet+ can be annoying, but I still think it is worth it for the learn tool alone. It has never let me down,...
Digital Flashcards & Revision Cards for Students | Quizlet
This would not be a real resource list without Anki. Anki is one of the most popular interactive flashcard tools for a reason. It really forces you to see what you do and do not know instead of just passively reviewing information. I am not going to ...
Anki - powerful, intelligent flashcards
The myth and the legend, Khan Academy. This is one of those resources that has been carrying students for years, and the best part is that it is still free. It has so many courses across different subjects, so if something is not clicking in class, t...
Khan Academy
🧠 Productivity
This is everything that helps me stay on track when I have a lot going on. Being in school is already a lot, so anything that helps me manage my time and stay consistent goes here.
Brain.fm is one of those things I was not sure about at first, but it actually helps me focus. I do not know if it is fully science-backed or if it is more of a placebo thing, but either way, it works for me. I have ADHD, and I cannot work in silence. I need...
Brain.fm: Music to Focus Better
Another tool I use is Pomofocus. I like using non-medical tools to help me stay on task, and you really cannot go wrong with a Pomodoro timer. It helps break your study time into focused work sessions with built-in breaks, which makes everything feel...
Pomofocus
This one is pretty straightforward, but it is one of the most useful things I have used. It is an all-in-one assignment tracker built in Google Sheets that helps you keep track of everything in one place. Instead of jumping between different syllabi,...

📊 Statistics
Stats is one of those classes that makes sense once it clicks. These are the tools that helped me stay organized, practice consistently, and actually understand what I was doing.
Laerd Statistics is one of those resources I wish I knew about earlier. It breaks down statistical concepts in a way that actually makes sense instead of just throwing formulas at you. It walks you through different tests step by step, explains when ...
