I only wish more BRS were available for step 2. It is much much better than Blueprints Peds, which is the other one I bought. Great questions at the end of every chapter. Excelent format that helps you retain a lot more than you'd do with other review books. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive book, January 1, 2008 By  ucladoc - See all my reviews This book is very well-written and flows quite smoothly --- there's not so much of the choppy, outline-ish feeling found in other books of the BRS series. Keep in mind that it's 600 pages long, so you'll need to budget your time accordingly. It took me the full 6 weeks of my pediatrics rotation to get through the book. The questions at the end of each chapter (and in the comprehensive exam) are challenging, but they'll prepare you well for the end-of-rotation exam. Highly recommended! 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars BRS Pediatrics, Lloyd J. Brown, Lee T.

Shadian 5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good I'm usually not a big fan of the BRS series, they just tend to give me the impression of long text description for each topic with minimal picture/illustration.
