Would anyone also recommend any of the other books in the series, like nephro secrets, etc?

I like the format of these books and was just wondering if anyone else has tried these.

Thanks

I have only looked at the preclinical titles, but I would say USMLE secrets is the best of the ones I have looked at. I've read some of Path secrets and Physiology secrets, and while they're OK, they're not any more comprehensive and seem a little more time intensive than other review sources - ie. RR Path, BRS Phys.

I have used Physical Diagnosis Secrets quite a bit and really like this book. Reading Mosby's Physical Diagnosis is like dying a slow and painful death to me, so I appreciated the Q &A format and clinical focus of this book. Also, the evaluation of the evidence base for various physical signs is a useful feature that I'm surprised more PE books don't include.
