Looking for a sample USMLE Step 1 study schedule? We’ve created some sample USMLE study schedules you can download, to use as inspiration for 7-week, 8-week, and 12-week Step 1 study plans.

These sample Step 1 study schedules are examples only, to be used as a starting point for your own plan.

Instead of using these sample study plans to prepare for Step 1, we recommend you use a detailed and personalized USMLE Step 1 study plan from Cram Fighter, to keep you accountable and ensure you cover all your resources before your Step 1 exam. With a Cram Fighter study plan, you can track your progress, make adjustments on the fly, and automatically get back on track if you fall behind. We find students make up to ten major changes in their study plans through their USMLE or COMLEX preparation.

And you can build a plan and try Cram Fighter free for 7 days - no credit card required!

Remember these key points when creating your own dedicated study plan:

• The schedule you start with, won’t be the schedule you end up with. We recommend treating your study schedule as fluid and something you can easily change if you fall behind or take days off.
• We have seen Cram Fighter users significantly change their USMLE Step 1 study schedule TEN times before their exam! That will add up to a lot of time reworking your schedule, so be prepared if you do manage your schedule manually.
• Plan your schedule with days for catching-up and taking practice exams so that you keep those critical milestones in your plan.

If you prefer to spend your time STUDYING and leave all the scheduling to us, sign up for a free trial of Cram Fighter!
