Review
I initially bought this book for my Emergency Medicine Rotation. However, one of my question books suggested that I actually do a rotation in Emergency Medicine before I take Step 2. Because I have already scheduled my board exam before my emergency medicine rotation I figured that it would be helpful to review this book. And it was! This book gives you the initial step, next step, and presentation that is needed for the USMLE 2 exam. It is great for my style of studying.
pros: only usmle prep material focusing on emergency medicine. cons: no illustrations. although it is advertised as having 100 cases, there are actually only 50. the vignettes are not questions, but scenarios.

Review
I only used the Microbiology part : it's a little outdated, especially concerning antibiotic resistance and different E.coli strains, but other than that it's a really useful review, with some good mneumonics. It helped me to see the essential information about each bug and virus, preparing me for the clinical situations described in test questions.
Dont ever buy any products from this people. they did not even send my book. till today, i havent gotten my book yet..... only if, they are going to bring it tomorrow...\ dont buy a book from them... get off this website NOW!!!!!!!!
An older edition of first aid but is beneficial for the reason, it is the last edition before the switch to systems based first aids. Useful for shelves or a quick review for particular classes. There are much newer editions for the actual Step 1

Review
Know these Vignettes! Nothing more to say. They will be tested over. Period :)
Great way to review right before your exam. Helped me prepare for the case-based questions that now make up the majority of the step 1 test. The two pathology volumes give the biggest bang for the buck if money is tight, but I think the whole series (5 books: pathology I & II, microbiology, behavioral science & biostatistics, and anatomy & embryology) is outstanding.
This is the best way to prepare for the exam! This guy knows his stuff and explains it VERY well. All case-based reviews - there are no multiple choice questions in these books. All the series is excellent except the anatomy volume was low-yield for exam.

Review
Know these Vignettes! Nothing more to say. They will be tested over. Period :) Another low yield subject, but points are points.
I didn't like anatomy very much because I found the subject matter pretty dry. I thought this case-based review was a great way to review anatomy and several of the high-yield facts appeared on my Step 1 exam (Feb. 2004). Probably best used by those seeking to do above average on the exam. Excellent explanations and figures.
Anatomy and embryo are supposed to be "low yield" for step 1, but i felt like I needed to review these subjects a little and chose to do it with this book. I am very glad I did! Great, concise review of important info in both topics with lots of figures and pictures to help ensure understanding. Wonderful explanantions, which also tell you how board examiners will try to trick you. Check it out!
