This review is from: Obstetrics and Gynecology (NMS) (National Medical Series for Independent Study) (Hardcover)

Long book, informative but of low yeild, would be better of with the BRS O&G. Some Gyn topics are really bad and make no sense. Some are good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for USMLE 2, if you have time!, April 8, 2000

Excellent and exhaustive notes on Obs&Gyn. Good for USMLE preparation. I feel that it is a bit too much of explanations. Model question are comparable to that of USMLE. In short, go for this book, if you have time!
