5.0 out of 5 stars Nothing is sugar-coated, July 27, 2005
This review is from: Surviving Medical School (Paperback)
This book is written as a collection of interviews and personal experience notes by the author. It covers every aspect of medical school, but it does so by topic rather by timeline. Nothing is hidden or omitted, and the book pushes the reader to pose the question, "Is this REALLY for me?" I found it extremely informative.
