There’s nothing more important to you than your USMLE scores. Why? Because it means more than just bragging rights; it means your whole life—your future career as a specialist in the US. Your barrier is a great foe—The USMLE—. You sweat by merely thinking about the amount of material you still have to memorize. You, dear colleague, need to be prepared for the day when you and The Beast battle for long periods of arduous pain until one of you fails. “Who will call out victory?” you ask yourself.

This is why you should read this book: to excel, to create habits of excellence, to build solid principles, to become confident on your skills, to understand why you need to sleep, to comprehend why exercise is vital and why your diet is more important to you than you think it is. There is no safe haven from the USMLE and you need to get mentored every step of the way. And there it is, exam day. Are you ready?
