Pretty excellent summary and add on resource for standard family medicine texts and question banks. The only downside is the price, which I reckon is a bit inflated because of the “first aid” name that everyone at the stage of requring board cert reviews is very comfortable with.

I was disappointed after buying this review book for my Kindle and finding that you can’t select the section you want to read from the table of contents and jump aptly to it. You have to scroll through page after page in order to get to the section you desire. Don’t know if this can be flat, but would be a huge improvement to the use of the book on the Kindle.

It’s kind of excellent for review if someone has time but I reckon it’s as not as excellent as the other First Aids. I like the Mnemonics to help jog my memory.

This book is fantastic for clinical rotations. It’s reasonably portable. The sections are simple to navigate so you can find the snippet of in rank that you need. I like the memory tips too.

When I first saw the book, I was below the impression it had some do questions to go by the side of with the material. This is not right. There are no questions in the book and the in rank is provided in different chapters and arranged nearly in an outline form with many charts to supplement the material. I do reckon it is vital to do some study questions as preparation for the test but given that this is not the purpose of this book, I find it hard to fault it for the lack of questions.
As far as the in rank is presented – it’s really pretty well done. It casts a wide enough web to hit the major topics and presents it in a way that makes it so you don’t snooze off as if you’re reading a textbook. Don’t let the outline form fool you – there’s a LOT of in rank in this book. It misses some of the random esoteric questions that the family medicine board exam has but it gives a pretty excellent framework for the stuff you should know.
For those of you that are taking the Family Medicine Boards, certainly do the do questions on the website. They say that none of the questions will be in the actual exam but I found that a lot of the same in rank on the do questions is on the actual test.
