i've taken the pass program before...it's a good thing for those of you who are on the cusp of passing or failing...dr. francis is charismatic and makes you feel like you can conquer anything related to medicine. he won't teach you the material - you have to know it, but he will show you how to find the trees thru the forest. beware tho, it's not enuf to float along on his charm alone - you have to really put the effort in, you have to participate in group study - and you have to memorize those "PP Clues!" overall, it's a good setting for studying, getting clarity, and finding a peer support system.

I dont know what "PP clues" stands for. But I have also heard that the PASS prograam is good if you are only 1 maybe 2 points from passing. I understand he emphasizes concepts.

"PP Clues" means "Pass Program" clues - basically someone (or many persons) in the past put together all these mneumonics and concepts together in an abbreviated fashion. The problem with them is that they're not necessarily correct - cause they've been put together by peers instead of Dr. Francis or other professionals. But it is true - good for those who are 1 or 2 points from passing. Many American students attend this program too.
