Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GREAT Resource
Review: Really focuses on the KEY points and is a very easy read--it became my number one resource. Covers 90%+ of all questions I have come across with the KEY factors of each nicely and concisely written

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: BEWARE!
Review: This book is basically Crush the Boards, Step 2 written in paragraph form!!! I think its a travesty that Brochert markets Step 2 secrets as a different book. That being said, I highly recommend one or the other. But not both.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent
Review: This book is the equivalent of what First Aid was for Step 1. I just took Step 2 and this is the book to have. I just wish I had read it more than once! When combined with a question resource, like NMS, you have the perfect study material. (The NMS questions were a little bit more picky than the actual test by the way, but excellent in scope.)
Secrets is concise and tells you what you need to know for the Boards, giving common clinical scenarios, etc. I highly recommend it!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A moment before the USMLE Step 2
Review: This book was made for refresh your main days before the test, when a total replay of all material that you have revised is imposible. The information is clear and enough. This book was made thinking in time problems. Is a wanderfull complement of other books. karimharfouche@hotmail.com

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I didnt think It was very useful
Review: This is another book that is just full of the same old
tired facts that never get tested. USMLE avoids testing highly
repetitive facts. This book is like First Aid, it justs puts you
in the proper mindset to take the exam while givning you fluff. Most students that take the exam dont realize that they are already well prepared and dont need a book like this. It just gives them confidence and then they talk about how the book was the best thing since sliced bread. Get real, USMLE people
know what is on the shelves in bookstores, in fact, one guy that I talked to said he had about every review book known to man. They know what is out there and test accordingly. If books like
these were "right on the money", then everybody would do well.

Very few facts in this book came up on my test ( Nov 8 02 ).

My 2 cents

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good review book
Review: This is the same book as Crush the boards with a different format. Therefore one should decide which approach works better for you and pick one or the other. They are good review books.
