Organized in the same manor as First Aid for the® USMLE Step 1 to facilitate cross-study

How are they organized?

 

[schmartdoc]

Hi McGrawhillmed,
How does this book differ from the Organ systems based review by First Aid? Is it a corequisite for reading the First Aid Organ Systems review? How does it expand on the First Aid Book for each subject---does it provide more core explaination or give more high yield facts and pneumonics?
Thanks!

 

[psymedicus]

Hi, would this be more useful for the basic science years or for studying for step 1 as well? Thanks.

Both, good overview during coursework and great in conjunction with other First Aid Step 1 titles.

Both First Aid for the Basic Sciences books work together in the same manner to provide a complete review of the first two years of basic science courses. The General Principles book provides additional detail and background information for the related, same-named chapter in First Aid for the USMLE Step 1. Likewise, the Organ Systems book provides far greater detail on the Organ Systems topic chapters from First Aid Step 1. The books are full color throughout with hundreds of illustrations that are not in First Aid Step 1. They provide a solid framework for learning, understanding, and remembering essential basic science information for success on course exams and the boards.

It says this is organized the same way as the first aid for step 1 is- what exactly does that mean? Do the books cross reference each other? That would be a pretty useful and time saving feature if so...

 

[caligirl09]

would this book be more useful as a companion to second year studies or as a review after completion of the basic sciences?

 

[caligirl09]

also, does this book have any img-related tips as does the First Aid book?
