Crush Step 2: The Ultimate USMLE Step 2 Review 
asked by benzdrives on November 14, 2006 9:50 PM
Written by Dr. Brochert, who scored in the 99th percentile in Steps1 and 2 of the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE), this comprehensive, high-yield review book has been completely updated. It is cram packed with clinical information that has appeared on recent administrations of the USMLE Step 2, and will enable medical students to "crush the boards". Step 2 questions are more relevant to the clinical practice of medicine and focus on what a first year resident should knowhow to diagnose, manage, and treat common diseases. Coverage includes epidemiology and biostatistics, pharmacology and microbiology, cardiac physiology, and basic EKG pathology. Knowing common and life-threatening diseases in the sub-specialties (orthopedics, urology, ophthalmology, neurosurgery, child psychiatry, vascular surgery, etc.) can increase one's score substantially.

If you are looking to add further information to this book ( as is needed from other sources ) the fact that the contents are not in alphabetical order might waste allot of time flipping back and forth and on every occassion having to look to the content table. Unlike First Aid, where the contents are in alphbetical order ( ex: Cardiovascular, Dermatology, Endocrine .... etc.). If it was alphabetical it would allow for faster and more efficient stydying as is needed in preperation of a Step exam. Best of luck.
