Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good product
Bought these for my husband about a month ago. He has been using them ever since. They were in excellent shape when I received them.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - not good for step 1
I was really excited when I found theses cards, at first sight they looked far superior to the BRS/Lippincott cards that everyone uses. However, after going through them I'm finding they are not good for learning drugs for step 1. There are more clinical 'stories' than hard facts about each drug and there is little overlap with the drugs covered in First Aid (scares me I'm not learning what I need to). Perhaps they will be better for step 2 and/or 3 but I'm not going to use them to teach myself ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good review aid
The question and answer format is helpful. You need to have a fair amount of background knowledege to get the full use of these cards. Great to read in the train, bus etc!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - good for pharm and more
I had a number of questions on step 1 that I wouldn't have gotten correct if I hadn't used these cards. It doesn't seem like it, but there is a lot of information in the cards. I plan on using these cards to review for my other board exams. I used the other pharm cards to study but ended up primarily sticking to this set.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Step 1 Taker
Okay, I got these because I really am weak on pharmacology for step one. They are chock full of information (more then you need) but they explain that on the insert and how to use them if studying for step 1, 2, or whatever. There were a few typos which I was not pleased with but they weren't so bad that I didn't know what the actual drugs name was. Also, I wish the cards were made of sturdier material as they were a bit to thin for my liking and bent easily. I haven't gotten any other flash cards ... Read More
