Product Description
Preparing for the USMLE can be a stressful and time consuming task for any medical student. The key elements of a successful review program are clarity, brevity and memory-assisting consistency. The author of Passing the USMLE: Clinical Knowledge has taken great pains to distill an ocean of knowledge down to the fundamental clinical applications of patient care. Covering internal medicine, dermatology, obstetrics, gynecology, surgery, pediatrics and psychology, a wealth of high yield information is presented so the reader takes away as much as possible from every word, every sentence, and every minute spent studying. Passing the USMLE: Clinical Knowledge is illustrated throughout with full color photographs and illustrations.

Review
I use this fantatic course, and I would recommend it to anyone who is serious about getting a top score in USMLE. Especially if you want to get into some competitive field such as surgery. I use this in combination with the First Aid series and with the USMLE total review series software([...]) and this trio really delivers bang for the buck. This is an exam that will shape your future forever, it is worth every dollar you invest in it, you cant go back in time in another 40 years and fix it !
These books cover it ALL! Much cheaper to buy these than to go buy different books for each subject you must study for the USMLE. Everything you need in four books! The material is very well written and comprehensive. Explanations are clear and concise. I used these books and had great success on USMLE Step 1!!
Very nice books...IF THEY WERE NOT FAKE! The ones for sale on here are all fakes. Pages often have smudged ink, the bindings are weak, etc etc etc. In my 4th book, you can clearly tell that the guy printing them ran out of paper halfway because there is a stark difference in the paper coloring between half one and half 2. Spend the extra money and buy them from Kaplan. At least then you can re-sell them when you are finished.

Review
As indicated on the blurb, this is probably the among closest you can get to the real questions. The format makes the book easy to carry along. Work through these questions and try to think one step beyond what they're asking for!
Many questions are good and useful for preparing the USMLE, not only for step 1 but also for step 2.

Review
I think this is a solid book personally. I used it and it helped me.
Dont waste your money on this book. It absolutely does not help you with your step 3 prep. Very very sketchy information.

Review
Honestly, didn't get through the whole book, but the questions are similar to actual board questions and has good explanations. Kind of big to lug around to study with, but good for home cramming.
I can not recommend investing in the QBook, as I still found it necessary to buy the online QBank in order to prepare adequately. Although the questions are not bad to review, they don't seem too similar to the real USMLE questions.
nice review but not likely to appear in the usmle exam, questions are different, better usmle world

Review
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 Aid and work some kaplan q-bank questions and do very very well.
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.
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.
