I like the case presentation because sometimes it is very hard to picture how would these metabolic diseases present in the clinic by memorizing all the symptoms and that's how the step 1 is going to describe that disease on the real thing. I think these cards are good supplements to First Aid if not a bit too detailed. Honestly I did not go through the entire set (still, I think USMLE World is the #1 resources to review biochem for the step.. I annotated everything I didn't understand from USMLE World into my first aid and I felt good/did very well on this section). I just looked up specific diseases when first aid's description really confused me (for example , all of those lipid metabolic diseases). I would recommend using these cards as a review/quiz tool that you use in your "down time" while preparing for USMLE. It will prob take a while to go through the whole thing so if you only have 5 weeks before the test don't waste your time trying to go through the whole deck but focus on specific diseases that come up from your practice questions that you don't feel 100% comfortable about.If you have half of a year then this is a great deck to use with your study buddy to quiz each other and review details that everyone has forgotten from the first year.
The information provided on the Flash Cards was high-yield for the most part. However, on the Kindle edition, the explanation side should have a better design. It is in picture form and the letters are REALLY small, thus difficult to read.
You can't go wrong between this and First Aid. I used both First Aid (concepts) and these flashcards (more in depth explanation) for step. I think they need to update it though. Some concepts are better explained in First Aid 2015.
It's frustrating to see so many errors on these. For example, arrows pointing the wrong way (card 58), and nucleoside chemical structures completely wrong (card 70). My other complaint is that there aren't nearly as many chemical structures as I'd like. I understand it's not practical to show all the structures, and a lot of people may not want to see them, but it's really helpful for me to be able to connect a name with a structure. In spite of their flaws, I still find these helpful.
a must have for USMLE STEP 1 ,this is great ,they are easy to learn ,the only problem with them is that the font is very tiny hard to read ,I wish they had made the size of the cards a little bigger so they could use large fonts.but perfect and it is 2013.Very useful .very glad I bought them ,very perfect for last minute review with all factors needed.
Very helpful for Step 1, classes, and subject exams. Points out the most high yield information and the questions on front of cards help you figure out what the trigger words are that you should be looking for. Very well organized and there is room on cards to add notes if one wishes to.
These cards have some minor typos that suggest they were not proofread as well as the Lange Pharm cards. None of these typos are anything that would actually cause confusion though.Learning biochem from these cards was easier than learning it from First Aid. Would buy again.
This set of flash cards is absolutely fantastic. Each section has a few cards that serve as an overview of the relevant pathway, followed by a number of clinical vignette cards that each highlight a specific disease. These cards make a perfect companion to First Aid and provide a clinical perspective on the biochemical and genetic diseases tested on Step 1. Buy these cards if you don't have the time or inclination to re-read your 1st year biochemistry textbook (or a review book of the nearly the same length/detail: BRS Biochemistry, RR Biochemistry, etc). IMPORTANTLY, this new 2nd edition comes complete with a sturdy box the previous edition sorely lacked!!
