Yorum 1:

"Medical Boards Step 3 Made Ridiculously Simple" is a difficult book to review, as, depending on the way you learn, it can be a good or bad preparatory text. The book is organized into two sections: the first, diagnosis of relatively broad disease conditions (hyponatremia, cardiac failure, etc.), and the second, treatment of specific disease conditions (candidiasis, aspergillosis, cervical cancer, etc.).

All concepts are displayed in outline/"logical progression square" format, good (for some) for review, but difficult (for some) to actually learn from. First, second, third, and on steps in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases are displayed, essential skills to know to succeed in the USMLE step 3.

I personally found it to be a mediocre text, as I require more detail to cement unfamiliar/new concepts into my aging brain. If one is able to truly learn from an outline source, more power to you, and definitely look up this text. In any event, it will be useful to anyone who has already studied and wants a quick refresher a day or two before the exam (but not if you are easily stressed!).

For detail-learners: get "Crush" and read this a day or two before your test.
For outline-learners: get "Usmle Step 3 Recall" and read this a day or two before your test.
For everyone: practice your CCS's and questions!

Good luck on your test.

Yorum 2:

I sat down and read this book cover-to-cover the day before I took step three. The nice thing about this book is that it lays it out quickly and concisely. It helped with understanding the basics on a diagnosis or treatment. When I took the exam the next day, subjects came up again and again that I had just read the day before. I wouldn't use this book as my primary review book, but I feel it makes a great backup and "icing" for the cake.
