Biostatistics SUMMARY STEP 1 + 2 - The Basics USMLE

Biostatistics can feel overwhelming for Step 1 and Step 2, but the USMLE keeps testing the same core ideas. In this high-yield summary, we cover the major study designs (case-control, cohort, randomized trials, cross-sectional), explain the difference between odds ratios and relative risk, and show how to avoid common pitfalls like recall bias. Instead of memorizing endless formulas, you’ll learn how to apply concepts the way the exam actually asks them.

We also break down the null vs. alternative hypothesis, p-values, and test-day strategies so you can spot patterns quickly and save time. Use this video to strengthen your foundation in biostats, boost your confidence, and turn what most students fear into one of your easiest points on test day.
In this video, we'll discuss [brief summary of the video content].
