 Rating:  - Right on the MONEY!Previous reviewer is right on the money. BRS Surgery was a great review book and it worked for me! The questions are very comparable to the difficulty of the shelf exam. Used it along with NMS casebook and did well enough to get Honors!! Outline format is a VERY quick read and you will retain MORE. Rating:  - Best review book for the shelfBRS General Surgery was the best book I found to prepare for wards and for the shelf...and believe me, I looked everywhere for a decent resource. If you make time to read through this several times, you'll do great on the shelf. The practice questions at the end of the chapters and the comprehensive exam are very comparable to what you'll see on the shelf. So don't go along with the herd and buy NMS, A&L, or Blueprints like everyone else...get this book instead and save yourself some time. Rating: - You should buy it now !I found this book very useful & concise. It gives you the most important issues in points rather than full text, which increases your efficiency with little effort! Its USMLE-case-type questions focus more on the treatment. I wish there could be more questions to give us more practice for the exam. It includes introduction to Anesthesiology, but unfortunately not Urology & Orthopedic surgery. In addition, it doesn't have many pictures or diagrams e.g. x-rays, diseases mechanisms.
