Looking it up, it's anatomy software, right? Your uni might offer you some for free (or get the reps to badger them about it) or my anatomy tutor was adamant that "the only way to learn" is to borrow a skeleton from the DR and learn it every day

Not really, looks appealing but you can survive without it.

Our reps are advertising Kenhub as well. They apparently have quizzes and flashcards, so basically its like an anatomy learning site.

A website that supposedly helps students learn anatomy. It does look appealing and they know how to promote it well (what with all the amazing reviews), but you don’t need to spend £150 to learn anatomy.

I used that to pass my MRCS.

What happened to good ol' Acland's Video Atlas? That over anything and it's free.

OP you can easily make anatomy flashcards using anki or Quizlet if that’s your sort of learning.

They are sponsoring lots of medic youtubers. Our uni has bought us complete anatomy.

You can make your own flashcards with Acland's (would recommend too, especially if your spotters are on cadavers - the only thing is they go into way, way more detail than Y1 so you have to skip it intelligently) and whatever flashcard software you like, or there are probably pre-made Anki decks somewhere?
Also, reps advertising...? Bit dodgy...

Funnily enough, when I look for "kenhub reviews", they are all on the kenhub website

For everything, there is virtually always a better free alternative.
And yes, not even for your finals.

I find the levels of sponsorship in medicine/dent (eg all the societies and conferences being sponsored) a bit disturbing!

That’s okay, let them think their promotions are getting somewhere whilst we grab all the freebies and run

With COVID, I haven't actually gotten any freebies
