Joseph Umali (ID: 000000c00aac89a6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/25/2023 Definitely a game changer for anyone in medical school. The fact that as a peson who doesn't use anki gets to access the amboss add-on while studying using my own resources and notes, is amazing. Completely replaced looking up information in the first aid book for Board Exams.
