MuhammadKhabbaz USMLE Tutor Reviews 

Mohammad was an extremely helpful and supportive tutor. He worked with me during my intial dedicated period but also when I decided to take extra time. He wasn't pushy or telling me exactly what to do but helped support me in my decision. I am extremely grateful for his help as I was able to pass step 1 on the first try!

I worked with Muhammad back in January 2024 to prepare for my USMLE Step 1 exam. His tutoring helped me pass the exam and improve on NBMEs as he worked with me to identify content gaps and explain testing strategy. I became more confident in my testing abilities and medical knowledge content. Because of how essential his tutoring was for me passing Step 1, I reached out to him again when I was preparing for my Step 2CK exam in August 2025. He thoroughly explained the strategies needed to do well on Step 2, and as we practiced questions together, he gave insight into what the test writers were thinking and aiming to test with every sentence of a question. I was able to recognize these patterns quickly, which allowed me to complete questions faster while also maintaining accuracy. His guidance again gave me confidence in my knowledge of the material as well as in my testing strategy. He has remained a very kind, patient, professional, and affordable tutor who has mastered testing strategy. As a resident physician, he has also mastered the content and pulls from his current knowledge and experiences during tutoring sessions to help explain the material when needed. If you're struggling to improve your scores for any of the Step exams or just want to boost your confidence in testing strategy, Muhammad is a great tutor to help you accomplish your goals as he helped me reach my goals for both Step 1 and Step 2.

When I failed my 1st attempt of Step 1, I was devastated. I thought that just because I had worked hard, everything would turn out ok. What I didn't realize is that my approach was flawed. While I did focus on my weaknesses and all the metrics pointed towards me being ready to sit, I was not truly ready. Why? Because I primarily focused on content review over drilling questions for an exam full of 3rd and 4th order questions.

I passed my 2nd attempt today and Muhammad played a large role in my success. He conveyed the importance of using questions to direct your learning, which seems obvious in hindsight but is something that cannot be understated. He also teaches you to approach every question with a standardized approach in order to have a tried and true framework that you can always rely on under time pressure.

Could I have passed my 2nd attempt without Muhammad? Maybe sure, this test is really about having a solid foundation and then drilling as many questions as possible for pattern recognition. But Muhammad gave me a toolbox that I can use for shelf exams and beyond as well as support during this difficult time, both of which were invaluable

Patient and charismatic tutor. He figures out what you’re missing in the context of test taking and works with you to figure out a method to tackle questions efficiently and effectively. Cannot recommend him enough!

Before starting tutoring, I was lacking the critical thinking skills needed to analyze questions. Also, I was not thoroughly reviewing each practice question. Muhammad helped me by teaching me how to think clinically. He taught me how to dissect each sentence of a question vignette to create a differential. He demonstrated how to thoroughly review each question so that I would build up my knowledge base. Finally, he provided me with a structure so that I knew how to assess my progress. Thankfully, I was able to pass USMLE Step 1 on my first attempt. I would recommend Muhammad to anyone who is struggling with preparing for the USMLE Step exams. Not only is Muhammad absolutely qualified to tutor, but he is understanding of a student's needs. His rates are affordable for the average medical student. I intend to utilize his services while preparing for my USMLE Step 2 exam.

You can definitely tell that Muhammad is both very knowledgeable in medicine and skillful as a tutor. His guidance helped me learn how to properly approach questions and determine which areas needed more content review. I felt fully prepared by the time I had to take my exam.

Muhammad was very understanding of my time constrains. He worked around my schedule and made the process smooth. He is a good tutor. He does a good job in breaking down concepts and explaining them. He also owns up to mistakes and show the common mistakes people can make (including himself). Overall smaller guy and good tutor.

Can’t say enough great things about him! I stagnated in my step studying and couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t achieving the scores I wanted on NBMEs.
Muhammad quickly and attentively assessed my weak and strong points and helped my score jump in just a month! He’s approachable, kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to helping his students succeed and I can earnestly say, he’s the main reason I was able to overcome my testing anxiety and do well on test day. I strongly recommend him to anyone studying for USMLE or COMLEX!

This guy is an Amazing usmle coach.
I’ll be short and sweet and say that my med school journey was a bit rough- hit some bumps in the road during med school and felt very unprepared for USMLE step 3. Didn’t excel on steps 1 and 2 and just felt like a fish out of water.
And then I met Mohammad.
I stumbled upon his paper ad in my med school library and emailed him on a whim. Apparently he did a rotation here for a while before returning back home overseas. To overcome the obstical of matching as an international student, he has a strategy: to be an amazing candidate that no one can turn away. On his journey to being untouchable, he has mastered the Step exam in every way. He knows how test writers think and how to beat them. He scored 260+ on his step 1 and 2 and offered to tutor me in step 3 even though he hadn’t taken it yet (and was amazing at it haha).

He’s a very gifted guy and he is prepared to teach you everything you need to know - he filled in knowledge gaps, and also taught me test taking strategies. I used to struggle to finish my tests on time, but Mohammad gave me a paradigm to simplify it and get me to the answer more quickly.

I did well on the test and I know it’s because of Mohammad.

Best part is, the price is fair, and he is free most days. He worked with me as often as I wanted and for as long as I needed.

I have never posted on redddit before until this haha but if you were lost like me, whether it’s step 1,2 or 3- don’t worry. Just reach out to this guy and he will get you there !

Working with Muhammad towards passing my CBSE pre-step 1 was great! He helped me figure out the best approach to studying/content review and also helped with question taking strategies. Really helped me gain confidence in my knowledge.

Muhammad helped me with prepping for Step 1 before transition to pass/fail. He is awesome! He helps you build confidence and keeps a check on that nerve wrecking anxiety during dedicated period. He taught me to keep calm and approach each question using his test taking strategies. If you self doubt yourself often, he is the one to work with and learn from. He has a very refined approach to tackling any problem you might be facing. He helped me avoid preventable mistakes which also increased my score by a good number of points. Would recommend him as your tutor.

Awesome Tutor
Muhammad really helps you to analyze each question and focuses on test-taking strategies. I had a moment of panic towards the end of my dedicated as my NBME/UWSA scores dropped but Muhammad really helped me to pull myself together and pass the exam. I didn't get to fully implement his strategies during my Step 1 prep but am determined to use it for Step 2 and get the score I want. Thank you so much Muhammad for being accommodating and immensely helpful! His explanations and strategies are a MUST for any student with weak basics and test-taking skills!!!

He helped me rebuild my confidence in studying for STEP1 and eventually lead to me passing that brutal test!

The best tutor in USMLE, he is smart, kind, knows really well how to guide you through your preparation, I was completely lost and nervous, and by his advices I could achieved more than 30 Points jump from 212 too 245, thank you so much Mohammad and Keep it up

It was great experience,esp. our sessions of disccusing my nbme mistakes,change my approach to q. completely, help me improve my nbme score and passing the exam with a score I was dreaming of,highly recommended 🦾🦾

Muhammad has a strong mastery of the basic science material and generally understands what it takes to get to 250+ on step 1. After preparing for Step 1 by myself for a while and feeling lost, I contacted Muhammad and got his input. I only had a little amount of time with him, but putting to practice his recommendations helped bring my scores up by 20 points in NBME exams within 3 weeks. I can't help but imagine what I could've done with just another 3 more.

If I could do things over again, I would have gotten Muhammad's help from the beginning. Don't wait until the last minute, talk to Muhammad, let him help you come up with a plan, and stick to it. I promise you won't regret it.

Just did my exam and Thanks to Muhammad it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be.If you need someone in your corner through out this process who is always on time on your sessions and gives his absolute best in making you achieve your goal,it's Muhammad.If you want someone who will help you understand and analyse the questions you are answering,this is your person.Before I started his sessions,I knew I had good knowledge but the problem came in answering the questions.He helped me understand how to answer questions and try to understand what the examiner is looking for and that helped me out alot.Before I would just read the question an it was either I knew it or not but after the sessions with him,even the questions I had no clue most I was able to understand or atleast figure out what they were trying to ask...He helped me figure out my own exam taking strategy tailored to my weakness when it came to answering questions.The exam is doable you just have to be smart on how to approach it and I promise Muhammad has got your back.
Hope more people out here are able to benefit from him.You've put in all the hardworking,now you just need to approach it in a smart way.For this ,he's got your back

Muhammad was a key part of my USMLE STEP 1 preparation. I was really scared of NBME until Muhammad sat me down and went through NBME questions with me. Not only is his knowledge of the sciences unmatched, his strongest factor is his knowledge regarding exam strategy. I will say that at first, I did not appreciate the guidance and knowledge about how to prepare for the exam, and prepare for what comes along with exam day; until I was actually sitting in my exam.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR EVERYONE, (No matter where you are starting)! Muhammad will ensure that you are at your 100% best on exam day!

Great tutor!!

Muhammad is a really great tutor who really takes the time to help his students. I can count on him not only to take the time to prepare for each session in great detail, but also to ensure that his student is understanding every concept he is teaching. He always shows up with a smile and great positive outlook which makes learning with him such a treat! He makes difficult concepts easier to understand and has helped me learn many things that I used to give up on!
