contains quality questions	Customer Rating:
while there is no substitute for usmleworld, i used this book earlier in my med school career. i thought they were more challenging than the kaplan book.

love it!	Customer Rating:

Great review of First Aid= great review for step 1

Customer Rating:

Almost every medical student uses First Aid for Step one because the bottom line is that it works. This book is by the same authors and pretty much reviews the same topics. If you know First Aid and you can breathe than you will pass Step one and what better way to ensure that you know the material in first aid than to test yourself. I would use first aid to guide my studying and supplement it with other review books then test myself by doing the questions for the corresponding sections in the Q&A. It worked great because the chapters correlate directly between the two books which made rpaid studying a cinch. Some people will tell you that these questions are easier than on the real test and they are correct but you need to know the basic facts reviewed in this book before you step up to the real thing on test day. The answers to the questions are awesome, they don't taker the easy way out by only telling you why the correct answer is correct they also take the time to explain why incorrect answers are incorrect which is really helpful because you cover more material this way. I would suggest this book to any 2nd year medical student getting ready for step 1 because this book really helps you prepare for the test and there is one full test included which you can used prior to test day to guage how ready you are.

Not a great book	Customer Rating:
THis book has to be one of my worst buys for Step 1 study. The material did not reflect the exam and many questions were much easier than the actual exam. I would suggest using USMLEworld instead...much more reflective in terms of the Step Exams

realistic	Customer Rating:
although i agree that the kaplan q bank and usmle-world are invaluable resources for step one, i personally hate hate HATE to study on the computer. this book was a good solution. i found it true to the exam, and suited me and my need to have something physically in front of me to scribble on. solidly reviewing the questions in this book -- 2 or 3 times -- would be a good basis for taking step 1.
