Frequently Asked Questions

How does ReasonDx help with board exam preparation?

ReasonDx builds the underlying clinical reasoning skills that board exams test. Rather than memorizing facts, you practice diagnosing and managing simulated patients through AI Socratic coaching that asks you questions, challenges your reasoning, and guides you toward better diagnostic thinking.

Is ReasonDx specific to one board exam?

No โ€” ReasonDx supports 11 health professions including medicine (USMLE), nursing (NCLEX), pharmacy (NAPLEX), PA (PANCE), dentistry (NBDE), physical therapy (NPTE), occupational therapy (NBCOT), optometry (NBEO), biomedical sciences, veterinary medicine (NAVLE), and other health professions.

Is ReasonDx free to use?

Yes โ€” ReasonDx is free to use. All cases, reasoning frameworks, and coaching features are available without a subscription or credit card.

What makes ReasonDx different from question banks?

Traditional question banks test recall. ReasonDx simulates the actual process of clinical reasoning โ€” you take a history, order tests, form a differential, and defend your thinking to an AI coach. This builds the durable reasoning skills that transfer to both board exams and clinical practice.
