Editorial Review:
The Clinical Study Guide for the Oral Boards in Psychiatry, Second Edition is exactly what every candidate needs to ease pre-exam anxiety and ensure success on this crucial examination. The second edition of this unique and proven reference incorporates the updated diagnoses reflected in DSM-IV-TR, presenting pertinent clinical information regarding the assessment and treatment of patients you're most likely to encounter during the oral boards in psychiatry all in a concise study guide that offers practical guidance on how to succeed when taking this rigorous examination. This new edition retains its predecessor's easy-to-use 10-chapter format and breakthrough perspective, asserting that the exam tests your proficiency in formulating a differential diagnosis, not in identifying a single accurate diagnosis. The examiners are judging your reasoning skills and your ability to recognize, during a short patient interview, that many diagnoses are possible. But knowledge alone isn't enough; you'll also need to demonstrate insight by showing empathy for the patient and by developing a collegial relationship with the examiners. Including algorithms for "middle-of-the-road" treatment protocols, this compact volume proves once again that it is, quite simply, the definitive study guide for all oral board examination candidates.

Rating: - The book you can rely on to pass the boards.
If you want to read just one book, read this one to beat the Oral boards.
(Although it is too detailed for Part-II, and therefore excellent for Part I as well). For Part II don't focus on small details, rather pick up the clinical and practical points.
Rating: - Read it cover to cover, it helped
This was a good study guide, as it covered basic material that I had already forgotten from step 1, and had some tie-ins to how this material could be asked during the boards. It took about 4 weeks to get through the book, reading a little bit every day. I would use it again and recommend it. It did not, however, cover the information asked during my oral exam at the San Diego Naval Medical Center, which was, "How would you take care of this patient on a submarine?" I kid you not, I was really asked ... Read More
