Review
I had very little time to study for Step 2 and this book was GOLD. I did also use Crush the Boards for Step 2 which is also excellent. Advanced Life Support has all the crucial little tid bits of info that you need. It could be in a little bit more of a clinical context but with its extremely short length and highly crammable format, it probably shouldn't change a thing. Its definitely a review and if you're learning the stuff for the first time, you should try a different book. BUT, if you have about 2-4 hours to go cover to cover through this book, then get it!!!
I think that this ("Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2") is anexcellent text for last minute review. It is not intense enough to studyfor subject area boards, but is still useful when you don't have enough timefor a more expansive text. I used this and "Prescription for the Boards" asmy study resources and was able to increase my Step 2 score more than 20points over my Step 1 score.The pictorial discussions of disease processes is the best memory aid I havefound in texts like this one. I highly recommend this book for anyone aboutto take the step. I can't find anything that compares to this book forboardreview. I give it 5 stars and 2 thumbs up.
This is a really quick way to review what you know or may not remember. If you don't know a subject matter, this book lacks the detail to learn it. It is quick and easy to read, with some cute cartoons to help remember difficult items.

Review
Thanks for her responsibility; eventhough many delivery problems I received the book and the book looks like a new one.
That book did not reach me and I learned that it went to the seller back; I sent a message to them asking they are able to send it again; I did not get a reply until now.
All three of the PathoPysiology books of the Clinical Vignettes series are excellent review books for pre-clinical students taking Step 1. Many questions on the exam are asked from a clinical standpoint. For IMGs who have clinical experience before taking Step 1, these books are less useful. However, they are still good to review unusual diseases. Since Pathology is so heavily tested in Step 1, these books are a good investment for anyone preparing for Step 1.

Review
Real easy step by step on everything u have to have in mind about exam,what you are gonna be scored on...just great...!printed on their webpage the patient's rating sheet and doctor worksheet to practice!Thank u for the HELP!!!
I needed this book and 2 weeks of following their instructions to pass this exam. I am an AMG, got this book, did what they said, and Voila! I passed. If you really do what they say, I have no doubt you will pass too. I am externing now, and I have gone back to this book, because I see that physical examinations are really done like that!!!! It's a good refresher, even now. Excellent book, well worth the price. My wife is an IMG, and she used this book too. I think she benefited even more from it because she learned what to do, what to say (She also did USMLEHelp online sound courses which helped her tremendously), and how to say it. They talk about the exam in the first 60 or so pages, and then it's COMPLETE physical exam encounters the rest of the way. It's definitely worth the price, and I would suggest this book to anyone who is taking this exam - if you're an AMG or an IMG. I have also bought their CCS and CK books. Hey, I'm a fan, what can I say? But they are all written for the student in mind, and they are all really good. Between me and my wife, we had just about bought every book that's out there for the exams, and this is really the best of the bunch.
I used several books for USMLE Step 2 CS preparation and this is by far the best book. I can highly recommend it - not only because I passed the exam thanks to it but also because it is easy and fun to read. This is a unique and excellent preparation book for the USMLE step 2 CS examination. Especially helpful for IMG, however also recommended for american graduates. It is very easy to read and covers everything from initial "plan of attack" for the preparation to valuables advises for the examinee during the exam.

Review
This is a great book for overall review. I'd recommend buying it at the start of 1st year or the very latest the start of second year and use it as a review tool for exams. Make notes in the margins on things you think are important and aren't included. By making notes in the margins it will become the only book you'll need to study from because if you know everything in this book you are guarenteed to pass the boards. If you like system-based approach, Step-Up is a great supplement, but it's micro section is poor -3rd Year Medical Student
Definitely the key source for step 1 preparation but as the authors say: it should not be the only source of preparation.Molecular biology and genetics should have a separate section in the review section as they are heavily tested in the actual exam. Otherwise very good and concise presentation of high yield facts. Do not forget to practice questions which are most similar to the real thing in NMS or on Kaplan website.Careful with rating of book recommendation.Better to make up your own mind.Good luck.
This is so funny I bought a copy of the FA book 2003 and looking at it and comparing it to the 2002 version I saw that almost all of the mistakes where being corrected and stuff like that... I had the 2002 version, which was fraught with little mistakes here and there... Yeah like I said there were many mistakes on the 2002 version; in the different subject areas. At least the ones that I had come across while attempting to read it really made me mad... Now the question is: How come a book like FA for the usmle step1 book had Some serious mistakes Like that? I mean being so popular and all... What a shame... It had mistakes in Path; biochemistry and so forth and so on... Thanks God that the 2003 edition came out; the book has so many corrections made; you know thinking back now in those days, those mistakes really drove me really mad... it drove me crazy some times thinking that they were meant to be at one time or another to be thought of as true.... It was driving me paranoid...lol Oh my, all of those little mistakes, fraught with mistakes...? Thx for your time in reading this article. Hope that it made you less skeptical in buying future editions of the first aid book for the usmle step1. Dr.Claudio A.G.Monteiro Filho Recife,Pernambuco. Brasil South America. CREMEPE: 13.652
