You Can Study 10 Hours a Day and Still Fail Step 1.
It was never about how many hours you put in — it's about whether those hours were pointed at the right thing. The 4 Months Marathon is a structured, mentor-led path built for IMGs who've already put in the effort and need the system that finally makes it count.

The Problem
Why Smart, Hard-Working IMGs Still Get Stuck
You’ve read First Aid cover to cover. You’ve done thousands of UWorld questions. And somehow the score still isn’t matching the effort. That’s not a you problem — that’s a structure problem.
No diagnosis, just more content.
Nobody told you why your scores weren't moving — just to do more questions.
No accountability.
A calendar isn't a coach. Falling behind in week 3 becomes falling behind for good.
No real endpoint.
"Study until you're ready" isn't a plan. It's how good students burn out at month 6.

“No more guessing where to start.”
You're paired with Dr. Ohioma from day one. Your welcome session confirms your test date and gets your diagnostic scheduled within the week.
Self-Check
Is the 4 Months Marathon Right for You?
This is for you if…
- You've already attempted self-study or a generic program and the score didn't reflect the effort
- You can commit 4–5 focused hours a day for the next 4 months
- You want one clear plan instead of assembling your own from YouTube, forums, and guesswork
- You're an IMG or repeat test-taker who needs a program built around your specific situation
Probably not for you if…
- You're just starting your prep and haven't attempted self-study yet
- You can only commit a few hours a week, not a day
- You already have a working plan and just need targeted subject help
- You'd rather book expert hours as needed than follow a fixed sequence

Founder & Mentor
Taught by Someone Who’s Done This — While Working Too.
Dr. Ohis Muhammed Ohioma
Not a full-time lecturer reciting slides — a physician who prepared for this exact exam under the same time pressure you're facing now.
Dr. Ohioma sat for Step 1 and Step 2 CK while working the same demanding schedule this course is built around, then spent three years tutoring other working physicians and IMGs through the material that actually moves scores. The sessions reflect what got him — and his students — through the exam.
