 Rating:  - Great Quick review of PharmThis is a great little rview for the Boards- its more detailed than the First Aid but a lot shorter than the Kaplan Pharm Review Book. You would notice that these are the same authors from the major pharm books that are out there. I am a fan of Trevor's teaching techniques so if you are familiar with his style than this is a great addition. However, this is not a book you want if you are starting out trying to learn pharm- in that sense you want the details that are required for you in medical classes ...

But if u can do all three, good.For the step 1 first aid is more than adequate,i used first aid for the boards after i found out that katzung was too detailed. i ended up with a score of 229/95.

It might be somewhat useful for a quick review just before an exam, but definitely not for a thoughtful and profound study. Get some other book instead. Rating: - Great Review Book for USMLE/COMLEXThis book makes a great addition to your arsenal of medical board prep books. It's from the same authors of the Lange pharmacology review; a book rated high in the board prep bible: "First Aid for the USMLE Step 1". This book is more concise, however, and very easy to read. It gives you a good framework from which to build your knowledge base of pharmacology. It doesn't just provide lists of drugs nor does it drone on with minute details. Instead it explains the mechanisms of each drug class, providing ... Read More
