Editorial Review:
High-Yield(TM) Embryology, Third Edition provides a concise, focused review of the most important embryology information needed for the USMLE Step 1. Chapters cover prefertilization events and the embryonic period, embryologic development of each organ system, chromosomal abnormalities, inherited diseases, teratology and more. To prepare students for the clinical vignettes on the USMLE, the book includes numerous clinical cases with words and phrases that patients use. A mini-atlas at the end of each chapter presents photographs, MRIs, CT scans, and radiographs of various congenital malformations.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - High-Yield Embryology
The book arrived quickly and in excellent condition. I am very pleased with this seller.
Rating: - Great for Board Review
If your medical school curriculum is weak on embryology (like mine), this is a great book to put all the pieces together. The chapters are short and easy to read, with lots of diagrams and pictures to help explain.
Rating:  - skimable
i skimmed through this book for my step 1 because some of its contents not necessary or were found in other books such as high yiel histo or anatomy and first aid.good to skim through for the boards, but if u dont have time first aid is a perfect alternate.Even if you decide to use this book, dont use it alone, use it with first aid, which was what i did. i ended up making a 229/95 in my step 1.

This is much more concise than the new version. This little book helps you put the H.Y. facts of embryo together not just as a subject on its own but in conjunction to pathology. I would specially recommend the first 3 chapters to get a quick idea of embryo genesis and the cardio, respiratory, GI sections for quick kill on the congenital abnormalities that are extensively talked about in Pathology. I particularly recommend to read the latter chapters alongside with Goljan's Rapid Review Pathology.
Rating:  - this is like a mini review book for all subjects.
This book has information from different subjects, such as pathology, genetics, anatomy, physiology etc. I like the fact that it has lots of clinical correlations which link from different areas. some contents are repeated under different subjects in different chapters, I personally think that it enhances memory, some may find it to be redundant.
This book does have a little extra information which may not be required for step 1 exam. However, I think that it may be good for review or ... Read More
