Micro & Immuno Shelf

[dreds]

If anyone out there has taken the micro/immuno shelf, do you have recommendations about which books to use? Is First Aid enough? What proportion of the exam is immuno?
Thanks!

I read most of the Immuno section in Lange's Micro & Immuno book and found it to be really helpful. For the micro part I mainly reviewed all the tables I had made throughout the semester over bacteria and viruses. I remember there being a fair amount on the exam over parasites. good luck!

I took the Micro/Immuno shelf back in Dec. I found 1st Aid to be most helpful. I also used Checkerboard and the Kaplan Step 1 review. The last 25 questions are immunology. Everything else is micro. Hope this helps.

PS- Does anyone have any advice for the Path Shelf exam?
