The student tested-and-reviewed way to prep for the psychiatry shelf exam and the USMLE Step 2 CK
"I found the book very thorough and an overall good resource for a psychiatry rotation and USMLE Step 2 presentation. I already have recommended this book to my classmates and friends." -- Joshua Lynch, Medical Student, Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine
" I think this text stands up to the expectations of medical students who depend on PreTest as a study aid during preparation for exams." -- Edward Gould, Medical Student, SUNY Upstate Medical University
Praise for the last edition:
"The Pretest Series is widely used in preparing medical students for the clerkship shelf exams and the USMLE, and this psychiatry edition is, overall, quite good. The content is thorough, the questions concise, and the answers explained well. For those students who prefer to study using question-and answer type review books, this should fulfill their needs. It is nice to see an updated edition of this ever popular review book. 4 Stars!"--Doody's Review Service

STUDENT TESTED AND REVIEWED
"I know that my psychiatry protion will be substantially elevated following this review." - a medical student who recently passed the USMLE --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Review:
This was the only book I used during my clinical rotation in Psych. Fadem's High Yield Psych is also great. If you're planning on becoming a psychiatrist, then you should get the massive Synopsis of Psychiatry... which I always thought was just way too much info for most people.
This book fits in your white coat pocket and is great for reviewing questions in your spare time. It consists of tons of board-type questions in the same format as all the other Pre-test books, complete with explanations.
