The review chapters in the first section of the text are in a user-friendly outline format with high-yield information located in margin notes and clinical topics discussed within the outline and in clinical boxes. The second section of the book contains two 50-questions exams in USMLE format. A CD-ROM that accompanies the book contains a full-color art program, 500 board-style questions and answers with rationales for correct answers as well as all incorrect choices, and a quizzing function that gives scores at the end of the exams. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Get the older version, don't waste your money (or your time)This book is a waste and is no longer a "rapid review" book. The book is over 600 pages and full of run on sentences and mistakes. The book was never edited and golgan should be embarrassed. Rating:  - The best book for Step 1, Step 2, and the rest of medical schoolI am really disappointed this book is out of print. Linda Costanzo's book was republished (and it should have been) but this one wasn't and it is disappointing that the material in this book was lost. It and the companion review book (STARS Pathology Review) are the only place in which ALL of Dr. Goljan's materials are collected in one place (well, legally, anyway). I wish I had bought 2 copies when I had the chance. This book is very different than Robbins. Robbins never covers ... Read More Rating: - best ,easy, bookThe book is good. Easy to comprehend and interesting to read. It has not very lenghty details and monotonus pathology features.Topics and concise and high yeild. Relevance in usmle part 1 prep is yet to be explored by me .The cd had question and answers.I thought it would contain lecture from goljan so, that was a bit disappointing.Good to have the book. Rating:  - Only reviewing the CD portionI've only used the CD questions, and so this will be limited to that portion. The questions are very helpful, good clinical stories with memorably difficult questions that help keep issues in mind longterm. That said, the CD is really poorly designed, and the formatting of the exam is quite poor. If you finish taking an exam, and want to review the ones you got incorrect, it almost always has errors in which ones you got "wrong" as well as how many. There's also no memory, so you cant ... Read More Rating: - Too much hypeI found this book absolutely useless for the purpose of USMLE. Old, outdated and crammed with never tested facts. This is a textbook after all. BRS Pathology is the best book for quick comprehensive review. Don't worth money nor time.
