Highlight Help

Select any clue. See why it matters.

Every vignette has a detail you skimmed past: the lab value, the eponym, the timeline. Highlight Help explains it in place, in the context of the question, and keeps the explanation for when you need it again.

In short

Highlight Help is a StepGPT feature for USMLE study. Select any clue or term in a question to get an explanation of what it means and why it matters. Highlight history saves those explanations for later review, and saved highlights let you mark explanations in four colors.

  • Explanations tied to the question you’re studying, not a generic definition.
  • Highlight history keeps every clue explanation for later review.
  • Mark explanations in four colors and keep them with the question.
  • Included in both StepGPT and StepGPT Super.

The clue you skipped is usually the one that mattered

USMLE vignettes are written so that one detail changes the answer. When you don’t know what that detail means, you either guess or leave the question to look it up, and lose the thread.

Highlights that don’t disappear

Highlighting text is easy. Finding the explanation again a week later is not. Highlight history saves the clue explanations you asked for so you can review them later.

Saved highlights let you mark explanations in four colors and keep them with your questions, next to your notes and starred sections.

Different from pasting into a chatbot

General assistants can explain selected text, usually through a browser extension and a fresh prompt. Highlight Help works inside StepGPT’s question analysis, so each explanation is tied to the question you’re studying and saved with it.
