Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Great Review for Medical students Before the Step 2 CS exam
I bought this book in our local medical book store and began to casually read it. The Introduction part before the cases where they prepare you for the exam is simply great! It gives inside info on all stuff going on. It is also easily readable and styled in a funny style. The authors have been ver careful in changing names of actors!!. The 100 cases presented in the book are complete. It would be even better if they have a link to the book online especially for the practice tests.
