    5 out of 5 stars Good study guide.......2007-06-27

    Definitely a must have, great guide for the USMLE step 2 CS, especially if you have a study partner.

    5 out of 5 stars recommendation for this book.......2007-06-12

    This is practically the only book you need for the CS exam. My personal recommendation is, since the clinical pictures are sometimes very short, use the book as a guide and try to obtain a little more information about them, especially their outstanding features. You will see them in the exam.
    The Kaplan, second edition, is the same first edition with a different date. If you want it, the first edition will do, although I think that the First Aid will be enough

    4 out of 5 stars good for quick review.......2007-02-01

    this book was helpful in order to get a quick run-down of the test format and commonly tested patient scenarios in the Step 2 CS exam. i didn't use any other review books so i can't directly compare with other resources, but it seemed comparable to other books based on what i have heard.

    5 out of 5 stars First Aid USMLE Step 2 CS.......2007-01-16

    it contained all the cases you need to read on for the CS... great help for an IMG... but you'll also need a practice partner....

    5 out of 5 stars all u need.......2007-01-11

    clear, to the point, all the review u need wrapped up in one book. dont waste your time or money with other books

      this is a good book to review the existing knowledge.... do not use this book to gain new knowledge.... excellent mnemonic help, thats good...

      i think this book need some more articles,,,,specially in paediatrics surgery and psychiatry...

      thank you

      3 out of 5 stars Not the best study aid this time.......2007-01-04

      When I took step one, this was my bible, and it prepared me very well. This time, the book gave lots of facts but did not prepare me well for the case-based questions of step two. I did not feel confident at all when I left this exam, and I had memorized this entire book. There was just not enough detail. I would recommend learning this book but then also doing tons of practice questions as well.

      2 out of 5 stars Not as good as First Aid for Step 1.......2006-09-08

      I was very disappointed with this resource for CK prep. I found Step 2 secrets to be far superior. I purchased and read First Aid for Step 2 CK based on my positive experience with First Aid for Step 1. Much to my disappointment, First Aid for CK contained quite a large amount of basic information that just isn't high yield on step 2. For example, the basic ins and outs of ECG. On the exam, pertinent ECG findings are usually given, and then you're asked to make a clinical decision (e.g. next test or step in management) based on the ECG findings and other data presented. Step 2 secrets is a much more clinically oriented review of material for CK. WARNING: don't rely heavily on First Aid for CK or you'll be disappointed. USMLE world and Kaplan Qbank are probably the best review resources out there, with review books serving as supplements. Unfortunately, First Aid for Step 2 CK was not very helpful. See my review of step 2 secrets, as I consider it to be the best text resource (remember, only as a supplement to online question banks) for CK. I'm not bashing the First Aid series because many are very good books. For example, First Aid for step 2 CS is right on the money (see my review of First Aid for step 2 CS).

      3 out of 5 stars Helpful .......2006-08-07

      I agree with other reviewers. It doesn't come close to the usefulness of Step 1. It contains too little information considered high yield in the exam. Definitely not to be used by itself.

      4 out of 5 stars Not bad, but not essential.......2006-06-30

      Unlike the step 1 First Aid book, which was simply phenomenal (not to mention vital) for studying for the exam, the First Aid for Step II CK was a so/so text. It's fairly long, and wasn't as concise or as targeted as the step I book, and took more time to really study it and attain the same degree of comfort that I had after reading the first one. Some of this could be accounted for by the sheer scope of the examination itself. Not only does this cover all of the core specialty rotations (and a fair amount of subspecialty info as well) that you will be exposed to as a 3rd year clinical clerk, but it also needs to re-cover a good portion of the step I material that has been delightfully repackaged (i.e. those yummy glycogen storage diseases that you thought were gone forever.... think again! This time, they give you the vague clinical presentation, and then ask about the enzyme).

      Within my class, there were really 3 groups of studiers for the step II, and the texts they used (as opposed to those who decided to "wing it"). Some loved this text, some thought that "Step Up" was hands down the best, and some swore by "Crush Step II". Personally... I read this one and "Crush", and thought that "Crush" was a tad more on target and high yield... but I also read this book first, so I may have hit Crush more comfortable in general. No matter what you choose, read something, and preferably more than 1 something, as a single text probably isn't going to be enough. Secondly, and probably more importantly, do practice questions! Whether it's USMLE world, or Kaplan's Qbank, it's definitely the best way to prepare for the exam. The test itself is very long (8 hours), and by the 3/4 point you'll probably be blinking stupidly, drooling, and struggling to remember what to do first.. point.. or click? The more practice you have, the better prepared you'll be, and really... everybody seems to make it through ok. Do the prep work, and you'll be just fine, and the "First Aid: Step II CK" is as good a place as any to start.

        Book Description

        What skills and attributes will allow young people to succeed in the new global economy? This volume addresses the question by examining the topic of twenty-first century learning.

        Twenty-first century learning frames an increasingly relevant and vital national conversation about what young people need in order to achieve: critical thinking, problem-solving, innovation, and communication skills.

        The chapters in this volume provide a broad scope of perspectives - from business leaders, educators, researchers, youth workers, and students - on the need, opportunity, application, and outcomes of twenty-first century learning. The twenty-first century calls us to reimagine the learning day-building partnerships that engage schools, after-school programs, businesses, and community-based organizations - and to embrace both traditional academic basics as well as small-group and project-based learning. This volume provides the most comprehensive review to date of this important topic.

        This is the 110 th issue of New Directions for Youth Development, a quarterly journal published by Jossey-Bass.

        If you are an EMT you will need good bibliography to learn and understand the diferent skills in your daily job.
        This book provides you a good source of information in a very easy way to understand. The diferent graphics and pictures are very usefull and help you in your trianing.
        I have an older edition (5th I think) and when this edition cames out I bought it and I don't regret
        I highly recomend it.

        5 out of 5 stars Excellent textbook.......2006-03-23

        This book is very comprehensive. It is packed with so much practical information along with diagrams and real life photos. I highly recommend this book even for the non-student who wants to enrich their own knowledge of basic emergency care.

        Even though I did not order the product for myself, I ordered it for my son in the Marine Corps, currently deployed. He received the book when Amazon.com indicated he would. Great job!

        5 out of 5 stars Very Nice.......2006-03-08

        Very well written and well thought-out book. Broken down into useful sections, and obviously written by people who know what they are talking about.

        5 out of 5 stars excellent.......2005-11-26

        Of the EMT-basic textbooks that I've seen, this one is the best. The photos and illustrations are exceptional, and the text is presented clearly. For some topics, I would have liked to see a little more depth of coverage, and perhaps more focus on questions of why rather than simply how, but this is true of all the introductory EMT textbooks that I've seen. While we used a different book when I took EMT class, I picked up a copy of Brady's anyway, and use it for review of the material. I don't mind that it is not as concise as some books that are designed specifically for review, because in my opinion this one is well written and enjoyable to read.

        This is a great resource for boards prep. It breaks down questions by organ system, has a large "practice test", and has some basic science sections too. Its nice because you can review a specific organ system or area and then quiz yourself with questions directed toward that specific area too.

        5 out of 5 stars Excellent question book.......2007-03-03

        I am an attorney and used to studying for exams with a large number of questions from which to prepare. Until First Aid Q&A came out, there were not many sources with 1000+ questions and that covered multiple subjects. All and all an excellent question book that I have used for my in class exams and which I intend to use for Step 1.

        5 out of 5 stars NIce!!!.......2007-01-15

        5 out of 5 stars Excellent work........2007-01-12

        This is a very comprehensive review of Step 1 USMLE First Aid. Having read many of the other works on this subject, I can honestly say that this is the best one. The sections on pharmacology and epidemiology/biostatics are especially enlightening. Michael Rinke is a god among men. First aid pathology, likewise, becomes a piece of cake after practicing on the 1000+ questions contained within.

        This is not bad as another book to have for Step1 Prep. Don't overwhelm yourself with too many books because there are ALOT of books out there. Just pick a handful becuase otherwise you will have conflicting information.

        Just Get the BOOK!!! Yes That Good!!! It helps you think about every aspect of a concept. Example, path & Physio of what's going on with the patient. It brings important concepts in medicine in extremely valid cases which are written "like" the NBME questions. I would rec this book 100% worth every penny!!!

        4 out of 5 stars great book.......2006-10-29

        cases are informational and board style. follows the step 1 book. the step one book, cuts out the [...] and tells you what's needed for the boards. great outline. some of the topics are a little thin. has color histo atlas and websites for more general info. I think the book would be better if it had more cases but overall, the combo is a good buy!

        5 out of 5 stars the king of kings.......2007-05-25

        you need this book starting from your first year of medical school, through wehn you take your step 1. use this book by its guidelines and you will be rewarded. pick it up, open it and read the first feww pages and follow what advice they give as a beginning medical student.also make sure you pick up the latest version.I used this book through my 2 years in college and i made 229/95 on my step 1.

        4 out of 5 stars Great book for review.......2007-03-20

        It is a good book for review but the subjects change one to another to fast and dont have any link between the subjects. You will need comprehensive books if you dont know a lot about the subjects. Good for highlight the most important topics for the test.

        4 out of 5 stars Step 1.......2007-02-01

        No magic, just study, I did it with KAPLAN, and the last week before the exam I just read this.
        Helpfull.

        5 out of 5 stars Good for more than just the boards.......2007-01-10

        First Aid has helped me in tests throughout the year. I actually wish I had had it last year, so that when the time comes to study for the boards, I'd be extremely familiar with the book. That said, the book is systems based, and the curriculum at my school is subject-based, so I'm considering getting an older edition of the First Aid for the biochemistry, anatomy, embryology, and histology sections. The mnemonics are great, and since I'm a visual learner, I really like the diagrams and pictures, especially for neuropathology.

        I'm really glad I bought it early in the year. Don't put off buying this book simply because Step 1 is eight months away, it's value goes beyond USMLE.

        5 out of 5 stars the best book for the international MD student.......2007-01-04

        great book - i used it a lot and it has all the guidance that you need. It is also very compatible with the Kaplan questions bank and very easy to read in conjugation with the Kaplan Medical.
        it is really up to date and has excellent graphics.

        I warmly recommend it

        5 out of 5 stars Excellent Study Guide.......2006-11-13

        I purchased this book and studied from it about 2 months prior to taking the NREMT-P Exam. I passed on the first try. Would highly recommend to anyone that is preparing to take the exam.

        5 out of 5 stars Great Study Guide!!.......2005-09-22

        The review book is an excellent prep for the National Registry Paramedic Exam!! Highly recommended to all Paramedic Students!

        5 out of 5 stars Great Paramedic Review Book.......2005-08-13

        This book is great if you need to review for a Paramedic Exam. The book is excellantly divided into sections based on the type of injury/illness etc. The book has many of the same questions as the National Registery Exam and state exams. The book also comes with a CD for further review. Thanks in part to this book I have my NREMT-P certification.

        4 out of 5 stars Great Review Book.......2005-07-25

        This book has a lot of specific information, but the best part is it is tied to the reference book from class, when you miss a question, it tells you where to go in the book to get the correct answer. Very helpful!

        4 out of 5 stars Who remembers all this stuff..........2005-04-28

        I bought this with the Marchetta book and the combo worked well (I passed on the first go around), although I was sweating going into the test because I could barely score passing scores on the subject sections in this book. This book is based on the Brady text and like most review books, it hits on the most archane details that when taking in such a large subject, unless you just read it, you probably would not remember it. It is a good review that, combined with the other book, if you study and study early on, should do OK. But do not expect to remember all this stuff.
