Yeah, it's probably the best thing out there for the Medicine shelf and IM portion of Step 2. That said, it could still be better.
Pluses:
-full color
-"quick hits" highlight key points
-Cardio section has notes on specific studies, which are potentially useful for impressing attendings on rounds.
-Ambulatory Care section is great for Family Med
-unlike a lot of other review books, it seems to be well-edited. I found few errors / typos.
Minuses:
**not enough about _management_. The most important aspect of clinical rotations is learning the correct sequence of steps in managing a condition ("What is the next best step?"). This book contains little information about that. There are some flowcharts, but it's really not enough.
--mnemonics are poor / lacking
--too many words. The outline format is good, but I'd prefer it not be in complete sentences.
--Not enough pictures, especially for the Derm section.

I'm a PA student and love this book's origination. It is easy to read, I dont like textbooks and this book is presented to you the way that we are taught in class from definition, etiology, S/S, PE, Dx to Tx. One of my program's graduates said she used this book and some board reviews and passed the board on her first try. Many people from my class also brought this book as study materials.
