User Reviews

1. This book is incredibly helpful. It breaks down every single aspect of the CS exam in a almost perfect manner.
2. expands on other ways to write patient notes and provides a different perspective to approach history taking, physical exam, and pt note. I thought it was worth the price, if anyone needs a little extra touch to the info already provided in f.a. goodluck!!
3. A bit too much of MD and RN courtesy contents at the beginning, would like more pathology to be explained in details.
4. Love the section on differential diagnosis! Very helpful.
