Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Don't walk, run to the checkout counter to get this book
I had very little time to study for Step 2 and this book was GOLD. I did also use Crush the Boards for Step 2 which is also excellent. Advanced Life Support has all the crucial little tid bits of info that you need. It could be in a little bit more of a clinical context but with its extremely short length and highly crammable format, it probably shouldn't change a thing. Its definitely a review and if you're learning the stuff for the first time, you should try a different book. BUT, if you ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Book for Step 2 Review-- Amust have and Read
I think that this ("Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2") is an
excellent text for last minute review. It is not intense enough to study
for subject area boards, but is still useful when you don't have enough time
for a more expansive text. I used this and "Prescription for the Boards" as
my study resources and was able to increase my Step 2 score more than 20
points over my Step 1 score.
The pictorial discussions of disease processes is the best memory aid ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - down and dirty
This is a really quick way to review what you know or may not remember. If you don't know a subject matter, this book lacks the detail to learn it. It is quick and easy to read, with some cute cartoons to help remember difficult items.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A DEFINITE "MUST HAVE"
A great asset for anyone planning to take the step2 exam. A really quick read..for those final days before the exam. Packed with great 'pearls'. Excellent value for money. Nicely illustrated with cartoons. Needs updating....still talks of two-day paper and pen examination! All in all, I highly recommend it as 'side-dish' to your 'main course' books.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very helpful
Excellent concentrated book of stuff that was all over STEP 2. You should know everything in this book and then work all the problems in the Princeton Review question book to ace this test.
