What Students Say

I’ve been with you guys for more than a year and I’m loving it! It’s a fun way to learn new things every day! Picmonic has changed the way I study, and I’m very grateful for all of you for making these awesome educational videos!
I am shocked sometimes when I am working with a preceptor on the wards and I am able to answer a question correctly because I remember a detail from a Picmonic I watched during my first year! I love the way that Picmonic integrates visual and auditory learning, as well as kinesthetic interaction when answering questions. The videos are also short and interesting, so they keep my attention and I don't feel like I am spending too much time on any given topic!
Picmonic has changed the way I study. Everyone can succeed in an exam if they study, but not that many people can remember the topic a year after.
My biggest regret about Picmonic is that I did not start using it sooner. I am so grateful for Picmonic!!!
Picmonic was a life changer! Made review easier and more fun to learn than PowerPoints or flashcards.
I found the sketches and Picmonic videos incredibly creative and ingenious, which made the studying process kind of fun! Using Picmonic was like having a tutor whose majors were Medicine, Art, and Film, and who also had a great sense of humor. To be honest, I couldn't have asked for more.
I cannot emphasize how grateful I am to have stumbled across Picmonic. These guys have thought of all the details to make it a smooth and convenient experience. The resources cover everything you need to know and more, as opposed to other overpriced alternatives which have limited content. It's very affordable which is why I'm using it year-round during medical school. Keep up the great work guys!!! Love it!
Picmonic is hilarious and the images are more fun than SketchyMedical. Picmonic videos are shorter and the platform offers spaced repetition quizzes with the Picmonics included.
Picmonic has been awesome! Transitioning to the first semester of medical school is always tough. The fire hydrant analogy is spot on. Picmonic helps turn that fire hydrant into a gallon of water a day. Difficult, but doable.
