Great Quizzes
OMS III Student
I like Osmosis because it provides a great opportunity to quiz myself on random topics within my current clerkship. If I find that my current knowledge falls short on any quiz question, there are links to videos and other resources so that I can quickly find the information I need. The daily quizzes are great to go over in the early morning before starting rounds.

Medicine made easy!

The most significant problem we Medical students face is having to recall stuff we've studied after a certain period of time and this is where this amazing tool comes in. It's like Anki on steroids without the stress and it's crazy that I haven't even fully explored it. I love the use of spaced repetition to reinforce concepts studied and it works with our curriculum to give you questions & material that are relevant to what you are studying while being almost effortless to use.
Waste of Money for a poor medical student
Unhappy med student
This program is difficult to navigate and doesn't offer nearly the quality of resources that other programs have. It sounds like a good idea, but they have simply not made the improvements necessary to make this a time-friendly resource. Their customer support is responsive but often rude. I would highly recommend that you spend you money elsewhere on resources you will actually use (like Sketchy, UWorld, and First Aid) and skip this one. While they do provide the thousands of flash cards and practice questions they claim to, they are't really any better than the brosencephalon First Aid deck one can find for free on Anki. They will surely respond to this review by saying that they vet their information and can't imagine how anyone would not find their resources useful, but the fact is that I didn't and there are very few reviews out there about this product that don't come directly from Osmosis.
Love my flashcards!!! Need some changes

I love Osmosis for the collaboration with classmates! My test scores have improved significantly since using Osmosis correctly. I do need some changes to the iPad app. I need to have split screen compatibility so that I can do flashcards when my professor goes on tangents in lecture. Quick swap out! Also, I would love the ability to see the slide that the flashcard is tied to, like on the browser, and I want to be able to see the comments that my classmates and I have made on the card. This helps me recognize thought processes that can take me the wrong way. Thanks guys! Keep up the good work!
Needs better viewing options

REALLY needs to be able to zoom into uploaded lecture slides. I hate it when I have to look at my slides somewhere on the go where I don't have my laptop, and the image is TEENY TINY and there is absolutely no way to zoom into the image. Otherwise pretty solid app.
Osmosis good, App very bad

I love using osmosis but the app is very non-intuitive, doesn't allow synchronization with Notability, and scrolling doesn't work on the video listing page. Needs a major update. Very disappointing given how much work has been put into the website version.
