I have used many microbiology books to study for my medschool exams (in particular Microbio made ridiculously easy). And I've been getting a thorough understanding through many textbooks. However, Deja Review is the ultimate book for reviewing all the information in a concise and yet still-detailed manner.For the USMLE, this is a must-have. I told this to many other students, and they have all thanked me for sharing this book. It's money all the way. Microbio is an extensive topic, and this book has many many many chapters devoted to the extensiveness of this subject. Yet, the most important thing about this question/answer format is that they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin'. Lemme say that again, they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' - they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' - they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' ---- see, you get it now.Cheers!
This book is just the perfect supplement for micro and immuno to go with First Aid. Forget made Ridiculously Simple, it's ridiculously too long for what you need. This book looks like it has more pages, it does by number, but the dimensions of the book are much smaller, if it were MMMRS size it would be about ~150 pages. This is perfect with first aid, it covers everything in a great question answer format.
This is a great supplement to First Aid and Goljan.The immunology section is just enough to get you to the level of understanding Goljan and FA without being too much to read. Micro is great too -especially if FA seems to skimpy, Ridiculously Simple is too much to read, or if Goljan seems too scattered. If you need a quick start, refresher or a book to fill in the blanks, buy this one.
Although I received the book today and it is in a short time. This book is really made of charts and summaries and that is what one need to memorize quickly and it does not miss a detail and that is good.So 5 starts for the book + 5 stars plus for the great on their book sails.Thank you
For $10, you can't beat this Micro book. Used it for exam review, fell in love within 5 minutes. The Q&A format is very helpful and covers material in a concise fashion. Highly recommend for med students.
While this is a great book to test your knowledge and refresh yourself in immuno and micro, I do not recommend you solely rely on this book to get you through as it is not detailed enough. It covers a broad range of topics but does not give enough explanation for certain topics.
This book is definitely not like any other review book I've ever seen...but in a good way!The entire book is composed of questions and answers. Each page is bisected into two columns. On one side of the column is a question; on the other side is the corresponding answer. This is great because you can just place a notecard on the "answer" side and quickly quiz yourself. There are many questions and answers on each page so you can just go down the page quickly answering questions. I don't think it is meant to simulate real test questions, but is a great way to check your knowledge of a subject. So, you may have an idea that you know something well...but when you try to write down the answers to their questions you may find that you don't know the subject as well as you did. Thus, this book is perfect for uncovering your weak spots.I found that the questions asked are very high yield topics. There were actually many questions on my real test that were similar to the questions found in this book. It's a little gem and for such a fair price, it's worth putting it in your shopping cart!Oh, I got the kindle version and I love it.Thank you deja review!
This book has really helped me prepare for the NBME micro and immunology section in medical school. I've had multiple resources to pull from (First Aid, Lippincott's Microcards, Lange Micro) and this is the best one (First Aid second best). It contains all the relevant points in a very concise form. I've used Lange Micro to initially learn the material, and Deja Review to come back and figure out what are the most important points. Excellent.
