I got my scores back and I passed just barely. Just to reiterate, I used class notes on some of the sections. Out of the book, I mainly used the microbio, pathology, and biochem sections. I studied human anatomy from class notes and just focusing on the face. I didn't study occlusion or tooth anatomy at all because I was too lazy and studied last minute (the book was pretty skimpy although maybe all the info were in the charts that i didn't bother to look at). My scores across sections were aproximately the same reqardless of whether i was studying off of the book or old notes. I did score a bit lower in occlusion and tooth anatomy because I didn't study. I guess this book isn't too shabby. Oh, i loved the microbio and path section because it was neatly organized. It would have taken ages to get the different tidbits of information scattered all over my class notes.
Yes, I would recommend this book just for the basics and your goal is just to pass.
END UPDATE
I bought this book to study off of and I can tell you I didn't like it. First off, it just grabbed pictures out of different textbooks and pasted it on there without a good legend. For example, in the biochem section i was looking at the krebs cycle or something and i knew it was missing something i learned in class so i was checking out the figure. The figure had number labels on it for each step of the cycle but the numbers weren't explained in the legend or on the page about the krebs cycle. Also, there was a missing figure in the dental anatomy section. There was the space for the picture and the legend but the figure itself was missing.
Now on to how I did on the test. I just took it so i don't know the results yet but i would estimate that only half of the test could be answered by what was in this book which only figures because no way can one 400pg book cover everything that you've learned in your classes. Still I really do wish the book went into more detail because it was quite skimpy in some sections. I did give it a 3 because it wasn't all bad. It was helpful just not as much as I could have wished.
All in all, I would advise you to just study your old study notes for class because only a few questions were things that i've never heard before and there weren't that many super in-detail questions. You can probably answer a lot of them if you really knew your subjects.

Part II is far better than part I.
Overall, Mosby has good publications. This particular is better.
