Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - High Yield, Yet dense
This book offers a Q&A style review for Step2
It is very targeted/concise questions with pithy answers.

I find it to be good review, but it is not a good source to learn material. In other words, I would start with a blue prints then review with this text.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Would recomend
Same type as they were for step 1. Something light to read on rounds.
Would recommend.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It organizes the informations from the books to your mind
i got this book based on its review rate, and i started reading in it from time to time while i am studying ,i found it useful because it takes a disease and discuss every thing about it in a small pragraphs. it reminds me quickly of every thing about this disease.
But it will never be enough source to take Step 2 test, you will need a source of questions has the same style as the test which will be either USMLE world q-bank or Kaplan q-bank.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Book
I feel this is an excellent book for the USMLE Step 2 exam. It is very user friendly and well organized.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Pre-Revision Guide
I really liked this book but basically, I give it a 4 because its not quite the complete revision aid you could use alone and only that kind of a book, if any, deserves a 5. Its an easy read and really gets you on your way with what your deficencies are and where your strengths lie so I would go through this before you really get down to the detailed revision.

Do not get me wrong, 4/5 is great, it is a very good book to own and I will be buying the Step 1 secrets before Christmas. Highly ... Read More
