5.0 out of 5 stars Quick for on-the-wards reference and test review, July 8, 1999
By A Customer
"Blueprints" is a terrific book for medical student use during a basic or advanced rotation in pediatrics, written by Pediatric residents at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Although it's certainly not exhaustive, the book provides a brief (usually 2-3 pages) discussion of a disease, its presentation, the differential diagnosis, and its treatment. The text is often in easy-to-skim bullet format, with illustrative tables/x-rays accompanying it. I read this book as I went through my rotation, and then when the test came along, it was a nice one-day review--I'm saving it for the USMLE step 2!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for the shelf exam!, June 22, 2002
By "crunchyinmilk" (Bethlehem, PA United States) - See all my reviews
I just took the Pediatrics shelf exam having studied this book thoroughly, and I thought it was superb. The authors did an excellent job selecting high-yield topics and covering them without extraneous detail. However, you really do have to know everything in the book, basically everything that made it into this book is pretty critical.

I also found it handy to add any other facts I learned over the course of the rotation into the margins of the book. It leaves you with a reasonably thorough study guide.

Some people insist on reading Nelson's or another mega-text, but I can't imagine anyone remembering 900 (dense) pages with only three weeks or so of studying. I'd go with blueprints any day.

4.0 out of 5 stars The ONLY book to buy for step 2 peds, September 19, 2003
this is THE pediatrics book to buy if you are preparing for the step 2. i found the questions asked on the step 2 exam were not as demnading as one may contemplate upon reading this book. Its great if you have the time..(the first reading takes a while)..and some tables (eg baby's milestones table) are very long and boring, sometimes even so detailed that they seem silly for a review book. I had no problems with any pediatrics questions after i read this book.....i got a cool score on the step 2. the other fabulous BluePrints book is the OBG one. DOnt even bother buying any others....

4.0 out of 5 stars Blueprints peds
This book is pretty good for studying for the shelf, however doing question banks will likely be more high yield. Overall, much better than a textbook, but still pretty verbose.
