Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't waste your time
I am a pediatric subspecialist who just recertified in general pediatrics. This was the first book I used and it was a real waste of time. I have my doubts about the accuracy of the information, but even assuming the information was accurate, the types of questions seemed largely unlike the exam itself.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - VERY GOOD
WELL ORGANIZED,AND CLARIFIES DIFFICULT TOPICS.VERY GOOD TOOL TO GRASP EVERY DAY PRACTICE IN PEDIATRY
