5.0 out of 5 stars Good for USMLE 2 Review!, September 26, 2005

By	Adefolake (Grand Terrace, CA) - See all my reviews

I initially bought this book for my Emergency Medicine Rotation. However, one of my question books suggested that I actually do a rotation in Emergency Medicine before I take Step 2. Because I have already scheduled my board exam before my emergency medicine rotation I figured that it would be helpful to review this book. And it was!
This book gives you the initial step, next step, and presentation that is needed for the USMLE 2 exam. It is great for my style of studying.

3.0 out of 5 stars mediocre, April 23, 2000

By	Hyunseok Kang (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Underground Clinical Vignettes: Emergency Medicine Classic Clinical Cases for USMLE Step 2 and Clerkship Review (Paperback)

pros: only usmle prep material focusing on emergency medicine. cons: no illustrations. although it is advertised as having 100 cases, there are actually only 50. the vignettes are not questions, but scenarios.
