Book Description

ISBN-10: 0781719763 | ISBN-13: 978-0781719766 | Publication Date: July 15, 1999 | Edition: Second

The United States Medical Licensing Exams are a time-consuming and expensive part of becoming a licensed physician. This text provides students with a strong review of material found in the USMLE Step 2. Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2 is a guide to the most heavily tested material.Written by medical students who recently passed the Board exams, this review text provides study hints at the beginning of each chapter, and provides students with the most heavily tested topics to help them earn the most points. Emphasis is on subjects that carry great weight in the exams such as medicolegal issues, dermatology, preventive medicine, psychiatry, obstetrics and gynecology, and vitamin deficiencies. Strategies and study hints are suggested throughout the text to help in answering tough exam questions. A separate chapter specifically reviews the "glossy book," the test booklet containing questions based on various photographs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful, August 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2 (Paperback)

Excellent concentrated book of stuff that was all over STEP 2. You should know everything in this book and then work all the problems in the Princeton Review question book to ace this test.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very basic information, November 3, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2 (Paperback)

This is a very small book which contains many relevant facts. Most of the information, however, is already well known by most 3rd year medical students, and is not tested on the exam. I would recommend a larger, more complete review book with sample questions.

1.0 out of 5 stars too basic, February 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Advanced Life Support for the USMLE Step 2 (Paperback)

This book is way too basic. Doesn't get into the detail I needed during the exam. I recommend you look elsewhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars down and dirty
This is a really quick way to review what you know or may not remember. If you don't know a subject matter, this book lacks the detail to learn it. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet
I spent a day and a half cramming before the exam. I got 30 or 40 questions because of it. Well worth the time.

5.0 out of 5 stars High Yield!!!!
Very inexpensive, very short, and VERY high yield. Several sections seemed very esoteric while reading the book, but on Step 2 SEVERAL questions asked the exact SAME thing.

Published on April 17, 1999

5.0 out of 5 stars Advance Life Support
A very high yield review for Step 2. Certainly not suitable as a sole review book, but as far as step 2 books go, definitely worth the investment.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very primitive medical information
I found this book a very small one, and purchasing it was a loss of money not to mention the waste of time reading it. Read more
