What are the books you would recommend for the physics boards?

Can they be done with just Huda?
 
> Can they be done with just Huda?

In the past, being able to recite Huda backwards was enough. The last 2 years or so, the level of deductive questions has increased. Also, the number of people failing physics has increased this year. So giving it a bit more depth is probably a good idea.

The other popular book is the 'Bushberg', it is a bit more of a text, not as short of a review as the Huda.

An area probably worth studying in a bit more depth is MRI. I believe the name of the book was 'MRI principles' by Mitchell.
 
Thanks for the answer, f_w.

Could you mention some recommendations for the written and oral boards as well?

Ah, ok.. So I take it the physics boards have a much more compact body of knowledge. No quick review books for written/oral, which makes sense.

I thought a high school student asking about applying to medical school was jumping the gun.

That's nothing compared to a medical student that hasn't even taken Step 1 asking questions about a Physics exam as part of radiology residency. :laugh:
