Hard-to-find info is right on the money

It's hard to find good subspecialty info when trying to review for step 2, even though all my colleagues warned me this stuff was on the test. I'm very glad I used this book, which has 50 cases that use an "unknown" case format, because I had many subspecialty questions on my exam (ophthalmology, vascular surgery and neurosurgery especially). This book gave me the info I needed to get these questions right and doesn't take long to read. I recommend it for those who, like me, are trying to do better than just squeak by on the test.

Great stuff!

Fantastic way to review for step 2. Great "vignettes" mimic the format of the seemingly eternally long clinical scenario questions that were on my exam. Explanations are superb, because they help you with the differential for similar conditions and give you practical pointers for things the boards love to ask or will try to trick you with. All in all, a great investment.
