The primary difference between the 21-day and 60-day USMLE Step 1 study schedules lies in the pace of study and the focus. Both schedules cover the same topics, but the 21-day Qbank training is more intense, covering topics at a faster pace, and focuses on practice questions only: a “test-taking” bootcamp making you exam-ready. The 60-day schedule, on the other hand, allows for an in-depth review of all USMLE topics, allocating study time as well as practice tests to each topic.
