An SBA bank for the
perpetually behind.
You send any lecture — slides, PDF, photo of your notes.
We mint exam-grade single best answers from the bits an examiner would actually test. You sit them, miss them, ask the AI "wait what", and it explains until you've got it. Spaced repetition keeps it stuck.

SECTION ONE · THE DAMAGE
You're losing money you
don't even have.
Three brutal truths about how you're currently doing this:
£0 vs £100
PROB · 01
Passmedicine is £100+.
You have student loans, an iced latte habit, and a £20-overdraft buffer. The "industry standard" is built for people with parents in private practice.
UNREAD
PROB · 02
Your notes are rotting.
There are 47 lecture PDFs in your Notability. You opened three. You annotated one. They will not get read between now and the exam. Be honest.
COOKED
PROB · 03
You'll forget 80% by Wednesday.
The forgetting curve doesn't care that you stayed up till 4am writing it down. Without active recall, every lecture half-evaporates in a week.
SECTION TWO · THE FIX

plot armour.

SECTION FOUR · THE TUTOR
There's a teller
who hates seeing you struggle.
Miss a question, get a plain-English breakdown. Still confused? Keep asking. The AI knows the lecture you uploaded, current UK guidelines, and the exact bit your last lecturer brushed past. It will not gatekeep.
  • Cites your source lecture, not random websites
  • Knows when to stop (and when to dig deeper)
  • "Explain like I'm Y2" mode for when you're cooked
  • Generates mnemonics on demand — most of them are bad

EXPLAINING Q.0142 · STEMI MGMT
The answer was B. ST elevation in II, III, aVF = inferior STEMI. Within 12 h of onset, the goal is reperfusion within 120 minutes.
but he was in agony — why not morphine first?
Pain relief matters but doesn't change mortality. Reperfusion does. Aspirin + activate cath lab first, then morphine. Examiners are testing the time-critical step.
wait what's the inferior territory vessel
RCA in ~80% (right-dominant). Watch for bradyarrhythmias — RCA also supplies the SA/AV nodes.

I uploaded a 90-slide cardio deck after a night shift, did the SBAs on the bus home, and felt like I'd actually studied. First time in months.

It pulled out the four bits my lecturer hinted at and I 100%'d those questions in the SBA on Monday. Mildly cursed. Mostly happy.

SECTION SEVEN · YOUR QUESTIONS
You're going to
ask anyway.
01How is this different from Passmedicine / Quesmed?+
Two things. (1) Your bank is built from YOUR lectures — not a generic question pool. (2) The AI tutor explains misses in plain English instead of three lines of textbook copy. Plus the free tier actually lets you use it.
02Do you replace Anki?+
We use Anki's spaced repetition algorithm. You can export every card to Anki at any time if you want to keep your decks portable. No lock-in.
03Is my data safe? Are you training on my lectures?+
We don't train on user content. Lectures are stored encrypted and only used to generate your SBAs. You can wipe everything from Profile → Data → Close account. GDPR-compliant. UK-hosted.
04What if the lecturer's content is just… bad?+
Garbage in, decent SBAs out, honestly — the AI is pretty good at extracting structure from terrible slides. If a lecture genuinely has nothing to test, it'll tell you.
05USMLE? PLAB? IMG?+
Yes to all three. The SBA format flexes — you set the exam style on signup. NBME-style stems are in beta.
06Will it work offline?+
Reviews + saved lectures work offline (it's a PWA). New uploads + AI tutor need a connection.
07Why "Panic Bank"?+
Because that's what med school is. We named it what it is. The metaphor stuck.
08Who's behind this?+
A med student. Hi. I built this because I was failing my mocks and couldn't afford the £499 Quesmed package. If you have feedback, dm @panicked.
