Our Review

Any of you in Med School are familiar with this sweries of books and are aware of how well they are written.  Along with the Kaplan Test Question Series this book is an essential part of getting ready for boards or the Shelf exams.  One of the things that I really like about this book is its affordability.  A prime example of a publisher not jacking up their price and increasing my med school debt. 

The book does a very good job in going over the basics.  I have gotten some critisim that this book is a liitle too basic for the step 2 exam.  My arguement there is to please show me a book you reccomend instead?  This series and publisher has proven themselves that they have a firm grasp of the content needeed to pass shelf and board exams.  While true some information may be lacking, but Internal Medicine is such a HUGE discipline that indepth would easily cover multiple volumes.

 

On a scale of 1-10. 10 being best…………………………………………………………………………………………….91/2
