5.0 out of 5 stars Better if used near to the test date, May 9, 2000

By	Eduardo U. (Lima, Peru) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Underground Clinical Vignettes: Biochemistry: Classic Clinical Cases for USMLE Step 1 Review (Paperback)

When I first read this book It was not very useful `cause everything was new for me, but when I re read it after I finish to read my biochemistry review, It was amazing, It helped me to order all the knowledgment that I had in a better form, in a perfect style to be prepared for the ECFMG questions. I recommend it to everybody who is preparing for the USMLE or ECFMG. And also highly recommended with the Lippincott Biochemistry review.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best of the series, March 28, 2001

By	Umber76 (Brookline, MA, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Underground Clinical Vignettes: Biochemistry: Classic Clinical Cases for USMLE Step 1 Review (Paperback)

I found this book very helpful in forming a clinical picture in my mind for all those confusing biochemical diseases. I felt this was one of the best books of this series. It is good to use after reviewing the subject. This book is not sufficient on its own and should be used as an adjunct to a standard review book.
