Each case starts out with a scenario, then provides a checklist for every item the student should consider regarding the patient history, physical examination, differential diagnosis and follow up.

 Rating: - Don't waste your money or timeThis book is not the same or a smaller version of the large First aid. This book was weirdly written and not helpful. Waste of trees. Rating:  - NOT a good choice for Step 2 CSStarted out with this book, since it was small, portable, and I borrowed a copy for free.

Counseling, referrals, trials of meds, etc are part of the encounter itself. Only forbidden parts of the exam, lab tests, diagnostic tests are allowed in the workup. It is time for a new, updated edition.
