Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Good book
I used this book in the last two weeks before the exam...some of the questions were kinda deceptive - they appeared easier than they actually were. But the selling point for me was that it was a full exam so I simulated the exam conditions to give me some practice with my timing etc. I used this book together with the NMS review book and the Kaplan Q-book, and I did enough questions to get me a 97 on the exam.
Rating:  - The worst test book I have seen
This is the worst test book I've seen. It is a waste of money, but more important, a waste of time. The only thing similar to the step 2 exam is the number of questions divided in 8 blocks. The questions are poorly written and the explanations are lame. If you are preparing for the step 2, try the Mock exam by Brochert or the Q book from Kaplan (or even better the simulated step 2 CD-ROM).
Rating:  - 2000 Edition is Excellent
This book is GOOD practice test for Step 2. It's set up just like the Step 2 exam with 8 blocks of 50 questions. Every question is a clinical vignette and the format of the questions is very typical of Step 2, i.e., "What is the diagnosis?" and "What is the next step?" It's definitely worth the the $25 that amazon is selling it for.
