AMA Ed Hub vs Pathoma
Pathoma's Pro plan is $99.95 for 12 months, one-time, with the 2026 paperback included. Three months is $84.95 and 21 months $119.95, both from older pages and unconfirmed. The course is 35-plus hours of video by Dr. Husain Sattar plus a 218-page text. The book ships as paperback only, with no PDF, and sales are final. A second-year student who wants pathology in one voice can try the free one-month account first. Pathoma covers pathology and nothing else, so a Step 1 plan still needs pharmacology and physiology teaching from another vendor.
AMA Ed Hub's seven-module AI series, built with the University of Michigan DATA-MD team, is free to everyone and runs up to 3.5 AMA PRA Category 1 credits. The wider library holds more than 4,000 CME activities, free to AMA members. A student with a Step 1 date finds no pathology course described there, so Pathoma wins that buyer outright.
