Study Buddy

Study Buddy is EZ Medicine’s structured tutoring program for medical students who want consistent support, expert guidance, and a clear plan for success.

Students can enroll in 3-month, 6-month, or 10-month programs, each including a set number of tutoring hours that can be used flexibly based on individual needs. Sessions are personalized to support content mastery, shelf exam prep, board readiness, and accountability-driven study planning.

Every Study Buddy student receives full access to the EZ Medicine Resource Drive, including high-yield study tools, algorithms, practice materials, and custom resources created by our tutoring team.

Students who complete a Board Diagnostic & Readiness Assessment and enroll in a Study Buddy program will have the full cost of the assessment applied toward their program.

Study Buddy exists to help students grow into confident, independent learners—supported every step of the way.
