Pathology: Board Review Series
Authors: Arthur S. Schneider, Philip A. Szanto Manufacturer: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Keywords: Medical test ISBN: 0683302655
Book description This top-selling title is now in its Second Edition. An excellent preparatory review for course exams or the USMLE Step 1, the chapters parallel most standard pathology texts plus provide a review test at the end of each chapter. Topics covered include general and basic pathology, major concepts of disease processes, and systemic pathology surveying principal disorders of each organ system. A comprehensive examination at the end of the book contains 500 questions in USMLE format. New features include key associations throughout the text that emphasize "high-yield" information for the USMLE review and a new chapter entitled Interpretation of Diagnosis Tests (laboratory statistics).
Book review: Superb I just took Step1 recently, and I wish I had focused on this book more. I would say that 90+ percent of the pathology questions on the real exam come straight out of this book. For FMGs, I recommend
While I have yet to take the USMLE's, I have found the book quite useful for the systemic pathology class I am currently taking. Hopefully it will serve me just as well for Step 1 this summer. |
