Can I deduct required materials for medical school?

Did you receive a 1098-T for your tuition?

Yes, I did. however, although these materials were purchased through the school, they were not noted on any tax forms.

That's okay, not all of your education expenses are or have to be listed on your 1098-T. As long as they qualify as an expense you may deduct them. Select this link for some examples on what is deductible: <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2976047-what-are-examples-of-education-expenses">https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2976047-what-are-examples-of-education-expenses</a>
