Summary: responsibility
Rating: 5
Thanks for her responsibility; eventhough many delivery problems I received the book and the book looks like a new one.
Summary: Unresponsiblity
Rating: 1
That book did not reach me and I learned that it went to the seller back; I sent a message to them asking they are able to send it again; I did not get a reply until now.
Summary: Excellent for USMLE prep
Rating: 5
All three of the PathoPysiology books of the Clinical Vignettes series are excellent review books for pre-clinical students taking Step 1. Many questions on the exam are asked from a clinical standpoint. For IMGs who have clinical experience before taking Step 1, these books are less useful. However, they are still good to review unusual diseases. Since Pathology is so heavily tested in Step 1, these books are a good investment for anyone preparing for Step 1.
