Customer Reviews

Just took the test!

The book covers most psychiatry topics well. I found it deficient in neurology; there were a lot of neuro topics on the test (which I took 2 days ago) that simply weren't covered, especially neuroanatomy. There was a lot more basic neuroanatomy than I expected. I think it's a great review book, but you will benefit from spending more time on a different source for neuro review. 1/9/06 and edited to say I passed! Yay! Surprisingly, my neuro score was better than my psych score, which I certainly didn't expect given my feelings about the exam afterwards. I again encourage people to study more neuroanatomy and use a different source than the Mass Gen review for neurology.

Excellent book for Part 1 Psychiatry Board Preparation!

Psychiatry Update and Board Review

The best psychiatry review book I have read. Very comprehensive. Reviews all the latest therapeutic techniques, including a good review on psychopharmacology. Also covers Neurology, which is especially important to review when preparing for the boards. I liked the questions which helped me to test what I have learned. I feel well prepared for the boards after reading this book. It has saved me thousands of dollars I might have otherwise spend on a board review course.
