3.0 out of 5 stars Beware!, March 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MKSAP For Students 4 (Mksap for Students, Alguire) (Paperback)
This book is supposed to be designed to help you do well on the internal medicine shelf. It was recommended by a good majority of my senior classmates. What it really does is test how well you know the latest and greatest info on particular diseases. In other words, the impression that I got from this book is that it was trying to teach you the latest material from journal references rather than trying to teach you basic internal medicine. After finishing MKSAP 4 and MKSAP 3, I felt like I was successful in rounding up a bunch of random details about medicine. It didn't help me understand any basic algorithmic approach to treating, nor did it help me understand how to work up a condition. In retrospect, I wish that I had never touched this book. Yeah, I learned the material in it and I did well on the questions, but it didn't teach me what I needed for the shelf, nor did I get a really firm grasp on internal medicine from this book. I would have been more satisfied with another source.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good question book (but just a question book), October 11, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: MKSAP For Students 4 (Mksap for Students, Alguire) (Paperback)
I found this book to be very helpful in studying for the shelf (better than PreTest). The explanations are typically quite good and quite long. They provide a very short bold bulleted key teaching points answer as well, which is helpful if you are confident in your answer and trying to get through a number of questions quickly. Some of the questions reference color path plates at the back of the book.

The book is divided into chapters as follows:
Cardiovascular Medicine
Endocrinology and Metabolism
Gastroenterology and Hepatology
General Internal Medicine
Hematology
Infectious Disease
Nephrology
Neurology
Oncology
Pulmonary Medicine
Rheumatology

If you are curious the 4th edition and 3rd edition are very different.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book (and CD), April 22, 2010
This review is from: MKSAP For Students 4 (Mksap for Students, Alguire) (Paperback)
If you have access to the CD from someone else use it as it has all the questions on there and lets you track your progress (and do questions in a random fashion as you would see on the shelf). This question book helped me honor the IM shelf and felt the questions were relatively close to the shelf. I'd recommend this for a question book during the rotation.
