This review book contains 1,000 questions that mimic the in-service residency exam and board exam in emergency medicine.

Questions are case-based and 10% involve interpreting an image. Answers are included, along with concise explanations of the correct and incorrect answer choices.

A companion Website presents cases, images, and questions that mimic the emergency medicine board exam and the in-service exam. Answers are included, along with concise explanations of the correct and incorrect answer choices, to help readers identify their strengths and weaknesses.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thorough review, excellent practice for the boards, December 7, 2008

Michael J. Tocci - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: 1,000 Questions to Help You Pass the Emergency Medicine Boards (Paperback)

I used this book as a supplement along with the Carol Rivers series. There are plenty of questions that cover most of the components of the EM Model that are tested on the exam. Some of the questions are almost too specific or trivial at times, but the explanations provided for the answers offer the necessary review of the topics they are addressing. This book is not organized in a manner to allow it to be used as the sole study resource for the exam, but I would definitely recommend this as a question book to use in-between direct study of the topics covered on the boards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for prepping for inservice exam, February 18, 2010

Intern Year Is Glorious (Northern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 1,000 Questions to Help You Pass the Emergency Medicine Boards (Paperback)

This book is definitely not sufficient for board preparation in emergency medicine, but it deserves five stars no matter what. Even though the title mentions the EM boards, I think EM residents or med students doing Emed rotations would gain the most by starting these problems WAY early in their training. It's a more entertaining way to learn material than reading through a textbook, and the authors do a *really nice* job explaining the answers to each question.

I've found several answer explanations to be quite high yield, b/c they usually have some discussion of why the wrong questions are wrong. Not only that, they sometimes will throw in extra "pearls" regarding the wrong answer. Example: A question about the correct treatment for otitis media explained the right answer of course. Then, even though antivirals is a wrong answer, the answer key discusses succinctly how herpes zoster presents clinically and that you would use antivirals for a herpes infection of the ear.

This review is from: 1,000 Questions to Help You Pass the Emergency Medicine Boards (Paperback)

This question book is extremely well written and useful for studying for the ABEM written exam or in-service exams. I highly recommend it.

I used this book along with Peer 7. It was great for the AOBEM. The questions are a bit specific but the answers are what to really focus on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Review book
I think this is a perfect review book. The questions are challenging and a great study guide. There is nothing else like this to review EM literature. This book is fabulous!

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent
I did pass my boards, but not because of this book. I used the NEMBR online course. This book was decent, but I wouldn't rely in it 100% or even 50% to help you pass your boards.

Published on July 14, 2009 by Em Doc

2.0 out of 5 stars dodgy product
sketchy at best, a fair amount of innacuracies, questions that belong on the IM boards, and questions very unlikely to be asked. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Review Book
This book has great, relevant questions that are very similar to those on the EM Inservice Exam and on Boards. I highly recommend it.
