The best Q book - Value for money

Best Book after UsMLEWORLD Better than kaplan I will buy this book for the cost - 800 questions

The best set of questions for the job

As of 2004, if one wants to learn from practice questions than this is the best source. It also gauges the difficulty of exam questions correctly so one can use this to see if one is ready to pass.

It stands alone!!!

Ultimately, the true measure of any preparatory text lies in the results and successes of its users. In this regard, I found this text to be an enormous success! I used this book as my sole source for preparing for Step 3. The strengths of this book are as follows: 1) Detail: All answers are meticulously written with clear, thorough explanations, such that you're never in doubt as to why your answer may have been wrong and why the correct answer is the best choice. 2) Consistency: As with many texts, this is written by two authors, yet it is impossible to tell question-styles apart. Furthermore, the editing is superb in that the answers to questions that cover the same topic but are in different sections of the book are always consistent with each other. 3)Up To Date: The answers in this book reflect the authors' up-to-dare knowledge of controversial areas, as they always present you with the right answer but often provide you with an additional explanation if the area is controversial. 4) Breadth: The book's 750 questions allow it to cover an enormous range of material, more than enough to adequately prepare you for the exam. There are few weaknesses of this text. The most prominent one is the lack of any pictures, which makes dermatological preparation difficult. For that, I would suggest picking up a supplemental text. For all other topics, you can't go wrong with this text!

THE BEST OF ALL

I used this book and CRUSH step 3 and found that the NMS review was far superior. The proof is in the outcome and I passed the exam with >90 percentile. Some of the material in this book is nearly identical to that seen on the exam. The answers are up to date, thorough and educational (even for internship in general). I highly recommend.

NMS STEP 3 REVIEW

I liked this review book very much- the questions were well written and the answers thorough. I have tried the Kaplan, Crush Step 3 and think this review book is the best. The questions are reasonable and cover all areas. I would highly recommend it.
