SecondLook™ Mobile Applications

Description

The SecondLookTM mobile applications are self-review tools, mainly for college and professional school-level students. They provide a series of images with questions and answers for users to test their knowledge and skill level before taking tests and examinations. SecondLookTM apps covering several basic biomedical subjects are currently available or are in preparation. All SecondLookTM applications are compatible with iPads and iPhones. See below for a list of SecondLookTM mobile applications that can be downloaded from the Apple iTunes Store.

SecondLookTM Histology, an Award-Winning App

SecondLookTM mobile applications have been downloaded from the iTune and Google Play app stores more than 232,000 times from 214 different countries and territories. In 2013, the original Histology SecondLook™ app earned Dr. Hortsch the University of Michigan Provost's Teaching Innovation Prize.
