Psychiatry Specialty Board Review For The DSM-IV

Rating:
Summary: A poorly designed study aid for the Boards.
Review: This was a poorly designed study guide for the National Boards in Psychiatry, with many badly thought out questions. Internal inconsistencies, confusing questions, or downright incorrect material was not hard to come by. For example, strategically omitted "nots"--as in "which of the following do not occur"--transformed some questions to nonsense. Furthermore, half the questions are of the now-obsolete "K" type. I would advise those preparing for the boards to save their money and apply it toward a prep course or another book.
