Editorial Review: Product Description: 95% of Step 2 consists of clinical vignettes, and this exciting new review series presents a wealth of "guaranteed to be on the exam" clinical vignettes for Step 2 preparation to give the reader a clear-cut advantage. It is unique among case-based series in giving greater focus to high-yield information. The cases and accompanying images faithfully replicate the format of the case encounters presented in Step 2, and key points and important Step 2 "buzzwords" are highlighted for each case. The approach is simple and focused without leaving out any important information. Plus, the format gives readers the opportunity to guess the answer to the case before it is revealed and to postulate on which tests to order, what therapy to give and what to "watch out for" in the condition presented.

 Rating: - Not perfect, but pretty close...I think every review book I've read (read a lot, I'm paranoid and a slow learner) has some good points and some weaknesses, but this book and series are very good. It taught me to think about the material and explained it in a way that helped my overall understanding, which the boards are [supposed to be] after. I still had to guess on what seemed like a ton of questions and there's always a new twist they can throw in to make a hard question about a topic you thought you knew, but this series prepared ... Read More Rating: - Loved it!Great series of case-based review - I strongly recommend all the books in this series after using them before my Step 2 exam. Each volume is short and sweet to keep you from freaking out about all the stuff you don't know that you should... Explanations are precise and written in easy-to-understand language, with difficult concepts and terms always explained or phrased in a way that makes sense. Lots of photos and x-rays that helped with the figures on the test. Rating: - All the right stuff!If you like case-based reviews (which is how 70% of my exam questions were), this is a great series. Great cases with superb, to-the-point explanations that tell you the high-yield stuff and omit the fluff. Easy to read, lots of pictures and figures, jam packed full of pearls. Definitely check this one out.
