Microcards: Review Cards for Medical Students,   ISBN:9780781769242

Customer Rating: 

These cards are well put together and are loaded with information (with hopefully enough space to add to because they can never have everything you want to on a card), but there is too much on each card to really use as flash cards. They are more like a book in the form of a set of cards.

Use Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple! It a great book to learn this material with!

If you're looking for almost everything you need about the most important pathogens in 2nd year med school, this is it. Most essential info is given, if not, there is definately room to add whatever you'd like. The case-presentations on the front of the cards are good too. Great idea once you have them- have it bound at Kinkos with a spiral binding, etc- great on-the-go review.

Customer Rating: 

These cards are fantastic! They have everything you need to know presented in a clear format for each individual bug then diagram cards to pull all of the bugs together. No catchy memory devices, but they have been my main study tool for both my microbiology class and USMLE. The clinical cases on the front of each card are also great for boards study and you don't find that on many other high yield sources.

Customer Rating: 

Great detailed cards. I am currently studying for the boards and think that the vignettes on each card is extremely helpful in putting the microbiology into clinical context. The cards do take a serious time requirement and I would recommend pulling out the more high yield organisms to accelerate your review closer to the test date.

These were fantastic flash cards for my med school microbiology section. They are well-organized and easy to carry around for studying on the go. I aced my micro class using these cards and Clinical Microbiology Made Easy. I found microbiology to be a rather daunting subject, and repitition is the key to learning it. These flash cards make that easy to do. There are helpful mnemonics and learning tools that make remembering drugs and bugs a little less painful. I highly recommend these cards!
