Blueprint Med School vs OnlineMedEd
OnlineMedEd runs separate MD, DO and PA tracks at the same price, with 3,300+ questions on MD and 2,800+ on PA, and the DO track adds osteopathic manipulative medicine content. Archer Review bought it in March 2025. The 600+ whiteboard videos and 3,000+ pages of illustrated notes cost $30 per month billed as $360 annually, $48 per month on six months, or $79 for a single month. Blueprint lists no video lectures. It sells 500-question shelf Qbanks from $69, bought once, a 5,500+ question Step 2 CK and Shelf Qbank from $225, a free Study Planner and tutoring at $249 per hour.
OnlineMedEd is the weaker pick for a student who already has lectures and only needs practice questions, since videos and notes are the bulk of what the subscription holds. Blueprint has nothing for a PA student, whose track exists only at OnlineMedEd, because its Qbanks cover USMLE, COMLEX, shelf, ECG and OPP exams. OnlineMedEd's pricing page lists no free tier.
