Case files

+ Good shelf review, not really good for surgical pimp questions
+ Fantastic! I read ONLY this book and passed the shelf.

Case Files is extremely helpful for all rotations and surgery is no exception. The charts in the book are helpful and I frequently referenced them. It also included surgical cases that I did not come across in other books, which made me feel like Case Files ensured I didn't miss any major topic. It ...

Review of First Aid 2008

+ sufficient to ace step 1
+ Start using this book early

I have enjoyed using this book so far. It condenses important points very well, and includes easy to remember mnemnonics and pictures. If you med-school has shelf exams it is a great resource to condense your studying so that you cover the most important topics.

The book comes with an Audio download code

I like to listen to lectures and high yield stuff over and over again... so I tried this. I've been reasonably happy with it until I saw the book for sale at my medical student books store where I noticed that the book was ~$5 more than I paid for the audio-only version and it included a code to ...

Not as bad as some of the other reviewers say

This book isn't so bad. It is true that the NBME is moving away from using buzzwords in their questions, but many of the questions in this book are useful to remind you of important facts. For example, the first question in the biochemistry section is "What is the rate limiting step in glycolysis?" ...
