Editorial Review: Product Description: Strong Medicine for Step 3 is a concise topical review of the specific problems and diseases covered by the USMLE Step 3 exam. The text focuses on the diagnosis and current standard of care in management of these key problems. The author strips away all but the essential facts, omits extraneous information, and emphasizes high-yield information. Strong Medicine for Step 3 is the most effective antidote to wasting valuable study time! Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Better than FA, Crush wt more coverage and organizationDespite the "popular" critics for errors from this book-so CRUSH (full of errors and not updated yet even on newer edition, please review my rating on Crush), I found Strong med is surprisingly pleasing and board friendly for step 3 with very much management biased and more management.

Rating: - PLEASE READ!!!this book is awesome as an ultra quick review for STEP 3 for internal medicine residents. however, for someone like me (Psych resident) who forgot most of the rest of medicine, i felt that the information was just too concise without adequate enough of an explanation. i recommend going with the Kaplan review books.
