 Rating:  - USMLE world, NBME, and Robbins question are betterAs of this review, I'm almost done with the USMLE world qBank and have taken 3 NBME full length exams. The questions in this book are a bit spotty, some pretty unrealistic. If you buy it, the first thing you have to do it get the "errata" to update your book. The answer explanations aren't as informative as one might like. I agree with the other reviewer that the author rushed the publication of this book. I have to ask why there are so many errors and bizarre wording of questions if 30 medical ... Read More Rating:  - WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLDThis is a must have book. Worth $[...], for all the valuable information it gives you. This will help you a lot with your USMLE preparation, and believe me, when it comes to USMLE, everything that gives you an edge helps. Combine this with the NMS (NATIONAL MEDICAL SERIES) books and the USMLE TOTAL REVIEW software [...]and if you are on a megabudget, include the KAPLAN 3 DAY COURSE [...]. And stop quibbling about money, you wanna to be a doc, it is gonna cost you. So shut up and pay up ! :) ...

Some of the chapters are easier than others. As a whole, however, the questions are pretty good. They are representative of questions that you will see on USMLE step 1 and great explanations are at the end of each chapter. I was hoping to use this book ... Read More Rating:  - Terrible editing, mistake ridden, and overly simple questions.I started going through this book and just stopped. Relative to the other qbanks available its a waste. Many questions are either unrealistically simple or overly tricky due to poor wording/editing. Many explanations are inadequate and are merely statements of fact. The book would be acceptable if it were not for the mistakes. In one chapter more than 10% of the questions had blatant mistakes or seriously misleading information. Combined with the poor wording on many questions, it makes ...
