High-Yield Biochemistry

Rating:
Summary: Good choice for USMLE
Review: High Yield Biochemistry is the perfect book for a one or two day board review. It is easy reading without the complex charts and detail needed in the first year of medical school. The book does miss some major points. Vitamin overdoses are weak, as are some major disorders/deficiencies like Diabetes, G6pdh, Hbs/Hbc, and purine salvage.

Rating:
Summary: Good if you need quick quick coverage.
Review: Nicely summed up by the reviewer below. If you need a very quick-and-dirty review, this is good. I take points off due to the lack of index and some weak sections. At this point, QBank leads me to believe that this book may not cover everything I needed to know.. but good for last minute stuff, especially if you hate Biochem like myself.

Summary: A caring man's advice: DON'T BUY IT
Review: This book is as unethical as reviews ever come.....Unbelievably expensive 25 USD for its value. A lot of essential very high yield materials are NOT even mentioned. A lot of low yield irrelevant materials mentioned. I dont think the author had a clue what is important. If you wanna a great high yield, get the behavioral science or neuroanatomy high yields but NEVER waste your money on this insulting "review" book.BRS biochemistry is excellent alternative if you have the time or the back of lippincotts review(at the very end) I hope this was a helpful advice.
