Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Very good review book for step 2.
I found this to be a very good review book. I used a lot of different books in studying for step 1 and step 2. This book reads quickly. It is well organized and presents information in a different format than in First Aid. If you really know your stuff, you could use this as a sole resource in studying for the test. I used this in conjunction with blueprints, boards and wards, and First Aid for step 2. Scored over 250 on all 3 steps.

I think you could probably study this book + First ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - good for start
The book has all essential facts that you should know to proceed further. If you did poorly in school, get this book to get back on the track. Easy to read, a starting point.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Skip this, get Crush
I bought this book early in the year hoping to use it over the course of several months as a very basic review. With Step 2 only 2 months away I've finally decided to cut my losses and get Crush the Boards. Pharmacology is particularly weak, the text is too basic and too much space and energy is wasted on their little icons for diagnostics, prevention, etc. If you're only going to buy one book, this is not it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT SOURCE for medical review
I bought this book at the beginning of my third year, and I have been finding it to be an exceedingly useful and handy resource for quick reviews and getting up to speed for new rotations. It provides a lot of information in a format that is very accessible, easy to read, and easy to remember. I highly recommend this book for people at all levels of their medical training.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best boards book ever
This is by far the most outstanding boards review book I have encountered. It breaks down the subject matter into digestible pieces that are easy to interconnect and remember. It is a great framework by which many of the details from clinical and preclinical years can be review. I used this book for all three steps and scored highly. I cannot recommend this book more stongly. Buy this book! The authors are obviously highly knowledgable in both the basic science and clinical aspects necessary to ... Read More
