Not matter how great our technology is, if our content sucks, Firecracker will suck. The first step is to make sure we cover all the material you could be tested on. To do this, we first break down the standardized test blueprints from the folks at NBME (USMLEs), and NBOME (COMLEX) into the full list of topics that they say you need to know. We then look at leading reviews sources to identify key topics the test makers implied you need to know but didn’t list explicitly. Test makers’ blueprints are usually pretty vague; check out the USMLE content description to see what we mean. To make sure we cover everything that’s fair game, we round up.
