okay, but not great

I used this to study for the recertification exam in the summer of '09. I passed the exam, but I'm not sure how much this book helped. It focused a lot of questions on certain diseases that were not on the exam, and some diseases that were hit multiple times on the exam were never mentioned in...

Limited review

Was hoping for better

This book came very highly recommended to me from many colleagues. As such, I had very high expectations and unfortunately these expectations were not met. I am taking the boards for the first time and can not speak to how these questions compare in regards to difficulty, but they seem a bit...

Good board review material

I have tried board review courses, CD-ROMs and other board review books in the past. This one hits all the important subjects you'll find on the actual exam in a format very similar to the exam itself. I would recommend it and plan on using it again for future exam recertifications.
