4.0 out of 5 stars I like the clinical correlations., October 7, 2006
By 
This review is from: Usmle Road Map: Histology (Paperback)
I haven't finished reading this book, yet. And I haven't taken the step 1 exam, either. However, I really like this book. So I will write a brief review now. Be the first that I can be. ;)

The best part about the road map books is that it has clinical correlations. And I am surprised that there can be so many clinical correlations from the beginning of the first charpter. It is like a short review for pathology at the same time. And because of that, it made reading much more interesting than just reading basic concepts which can get boring quickly. I also like the format and wording. I just finished reading the high yield immunology, that one was so hard to read because those two authors tend to write long sentences without any coommas. This author's wording is short and easy to understand.

One thing that this book needs to improve is to get more pictures. After all, it is a histology book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than BRS or High Yield for quick review!, March 31, 2007
This review is from: Usmle Road Map: Histology (Paperback)
I used this book as an MS1 and it got me through class- now I am going back and using it for a quick read in my Board review. Although I haven't taken the Boards yet, I believe this is the book to have for this subject. I also own the High Yield Histo but it lacks detail and BRS is way too thick to go through it for reviewing a low yield subject like Histo.
If you do have the time BRS would be better but if you are like me and running out time fast- then stick to Road Maps

The above was my review prior to the Boards. Now looking back i stand by it. Histo is not a very high yield subject. So just pop this book open for two full days of studying for the Board and move on to a more significat subject such as path (which is at least 60-70% of the exam)

4.0 out of 5 stars SHELF, May 28, 2010
This review is from: Usmle Road Map: Histology (Paperback)
I used this book to review for the SHELF, and I found it very useful. I am even planning on using it as one of the resources to study for the USMLE 1. I highly recommend this book, they are short, easy to read and they have good practice questions after each chapter to test your knowledge on the subject.
