All I wanted to do was pass my boards. I studied two question banks, Crack the Core, Board Buster videos and prayed for two months (prayers are ongoing). I didn't just pass, I did well and scored 560 (350 is passing). The Board Buster lectures were good and I would have watched them more but I had to turn them off around my wife and kids because of Lionheart's cursing.

Passed the boards using only your Crack the Core book and videos to study.

THANK YOU for your enthusiasm and effort! By far the easiest videos to sit through – your sense of humor was MUCH appreciated, and helped immensely when trying to suffer through otherwise mundane material (i.e. “Non-interpretive skills”).

The material tested by the core exam is immense and intimidating. The board review course and the Crack the Core Exam books provided a focused, high-yield method to approach studying for such a seemingly overwhelming exam. I listened to the entire board review course about 4-5 times and read through the review books twice. I also read through the dedicated physics review book, The War Machine, and the case companion books. I am confident that this helped me feel prepared for the core exam, dominate each section and pass the exam with a score well above the passing cut-offs.

I would like to thank you for writing and continually updating crack the core and war machine. I would be a worse radiologist and would not have passed the core without these books. Your sense of humor and straight to the point explanations are greatly appreciated. For the sake of future residency classes, please continue fighting the good fight.
