USMLE.org has specific outline that lets us know what we are held accountable for which is where I pulled this topic. We will try and focus on those topics mentioned and not covered thus far. Hope it is helpful.

[@lipikapal2878]

I saw this curve in my step 1 exam, was able to solve it with no confusion. Thank you so much for explaining it. The last two weeks of my preparation I mostly saw almost all of your videos. I really appreciate the time you are explaining the high yield topics and making it easier.

[@RandyNeilMD]

Lipika, Thank you for taking time to comment. Glad the video was helpful. Every point counts...!!

[@lipikapal2878]

@@RandyNeilMD Thanks for the reply. Biostat was one of my weak areas. Your biostat videos were really beneficial for me. Those videos helped me to answer biostat questions in step 1.

[@soulsaveroriginal]

had it in my test... and you were the only one who talked about it. thx a lot doctor!

[@RandyNeilMD]

PERFECT TIMING then... :)

[@karannchew2534]

Note for my future reference/revision. Step (a vertical line) = death. Longer vertical line: more likely censor occurred prior to that If censored (e.g. subject left the study) →study subject # reduces, →denominator of hazard rate reduces, →hazard rate increases, →survival rate decrease steeper (might observe some delay if censor happened over a period of time?)

[@princessnosa2438]

Excellent video. GP Registrar here in the Uk preparing for exams and this is just a breath of fresh air. Thank you so much

Thank you for taking time to comment... Hello from Pensacola Beach, Forida.

[@dramygdala8798]

Hi sir. At 13:38, you said the curve drops by 2/9 percent and you shoul have 9 sections remaining. Shouldnt it be 1/9% as we already accounted for the first person with MI at the first drop in the curve? And shouldnt there be 8 sections remaining as 2 people have had events out of 10? Thank you!

[@jaskaran401]

I want to thank you sir! I gave my step 1 recently & 2 questions came in my exam Thank god this video was suggested to me 3 days before. 🙏🏼😊

Today I completed watchig all of your biostatistics playlist. It was handsdown an amazing experience. I really dont know here I would be without these today!!!. Thank you so much Dr Randy!!!. One personal request please make a video on all kinds of risks (Atributable risk, Absoulute risk reduction etc) specifically focussing on those!!!!!.

[@umerhayat6857]

[@RandyNeilMD]

Umer, I'm glad the videos have been helpful. I think some of those topics are buried within some videos... I just don't recall which ones at this time.

[@umerhayat6857]

@@RandyNeilMD Yes Dr. Randy!!! You’re right those topics are present in some of the initial videos of biostats but what I meant was; A video that primarily focuses on the risks in a way that all of them can be solved and differentiated with questions!!. Lately aside from Relative Risk, all other have been presenting in a very twisted way!! :(
