★ Why ABSITE Intensive is built differently

Designed for the gap programs actually have.

Faculty-authored curriculum.
Every chapter, slide, and question is authored by Dr. Kashmer and the ABSITE Intensive faculty — not licensed, not crowdsourced, not generic.
Diagnostic-first design.
Most programs only learn which residents need help after score reports are released. ABSITE Intensive identifies weak domains in advance and targets remediation accordingly.
Designed alongside SCORE — not as a replacement.
A performance improvement system for residents who already have access to SCORE, TrueLearn, DeVirgilio, and other curriculum resources.
Built for institutional fit.
W-9, Net 30 invoicing, group registration support, and aggregate program reporting are part of the design — not afterthoughts.
