I didnt find this book very helpful. You’ll end up needing to buy the individual books for each rotation, so i’d save the cash and buy those instead. This book really dosent control much that those dont. I went out and bought it at the start of rotations, looked at it briefly, and shelfed it. There just isnt time to use multiple sources to study. I’d recomend a specific book like Step up or Blueprints for each rotation by the side of with a question book like MKSAP.

I bought this book before I enter my internship. I found this book very down to earth and matter-of-fact. You can use it as an framework to guide your reading and also can use it as a guide book for your rotation in every department.

Very helpful- better for some rotations than others (not very indepth for surgery) but the psych and obgyn sections are fantastic!

When you are on the wards the SOAP notes and Progress Notes have many abbreviations. This book was helpful in teaching some common abbreviations used on the floor. The book also gave some general in rank and tips that were very helpful. I urge the book.

best thing about it is the review of what other books to buy in the back of it. Excellent to read before a clerkship starts. Certaintly not even close to complete, but I felt more confident going into clerkships and the familiar format as first aid step 1.
