Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not good for the shelf exam!
I bought this book to study for the Introduction to Physical Diagnosis shelf exam, which I took two weeks ago. It did not help at all for the exam. The scope of the questions in this book were way off from the questions on the shelf, and the questions in this book were also harder than the questions on the shelf. Maybe this book would help for other exams, such as the medicine shelf, but it is NOT good for the physical diagnosis shelf!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Surprisingly useful for Step I
I used this book for the physical dx shelf exam at the end of our 2nd year clinical methods course. The book was absolutely essential for this exam, and indeed proved very helpful for step I as well. All questions were in vignette format, as is Step I. In contrast with some other books in the PreTest series, the questions were consistent and of an appropriate level of difficulty. The answers are extensive and helpful as well. THE QUESTIONS IN THIS BOOK WERE ACTUALLY FUN TO DO!!
