Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good, but its no RR path
Bought this book to study for the USMLE Step 1 exam because I had used Rapid Review Pathology: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access and Dr. Goljan helped to write this book as well. It is good and not too long, but it is nothing compared to the Pathology book, which I think is pretty much the best book ever. If you want to read a whole book on Biochem. for Step 1 review, this book is probably better than BRS, which is the other book I have used, but I actually like the biochem section of medEssentials ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great Book-if used correctly
This book can be a great resource throughout the first couple years of med school and step 1 studying... but it is not a good idea to read it on its own. Best way to use= reading up on each topic in this book while making your way through First AID for step 1....



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - lots of words...i like pictures
for those who want more detailed information, this could be a good review book. I however like pictures and easy to understand tables. When I opened this book I wanted to shut it again it was so discouraging to look at! I'm not sure this is terribly ideal for reviewing for USMLE :/ maybe better off as a supplement to your biochem lectures



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best Biochem Review
I've bought and read lippincot's, BRS, HY, and this book and well I have to say that RR provides the best overall review in the easiest to understand wording and layout. The new BRS is alright but RR does a better job. I found lippencott's to be a bit vague in explaining concepts and overly relied on pictures to explain what should have been done with text.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Fantastic Book for Review and for class
Biochemistry was my first Med-School Class and I was conflicted on whether to get BRS or Rapid Review. I am extremely pleased that I purchased this book. It has everything important, and a great website with over 200 questions. The questions at the end and online are challenging and offer detailed, concise explanations on why a right answer is right, and why wrong answers are wrong. The text is marvelous. The margins boast a plethora of high-yield facts that actually did come up on the Biochemistry Shelf ... Read More
