NMS Q & A USMLE Step 2 CK (National Medical Series for Independent Study) 4th Edition (2011) (PDF) by Kenneth Ibsen

Description

“During the past decade, the first, second and 3rd editions of the NMS Review for USMLE Step 2 have served as important adjuncts for students preparing to take the USMLE Step 2 Examination. This the 4th edition of NMS Review for USMLE Step 2 CK reflects the fact that it only relates to the CK (clinical knowledge) component of the current two-part Step 2 Examination. In providing this knowledge, it continues the traditions of relevance and excellence established by the previous editions”–Provided by publisher.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This book is a terrible review method for CK. The information is outdated, the question styles are convoluted and rather irrelevant to what is clinically tested.As someone who’s taken Step 2 CK and done well- save your money. Spend it on Step Up to Step 2, Step 2 Secrets and USMLE World.

⭐The book is 12 tests each containing 50 questions. The back of the book has each question broken down by subspecialty to make it easier for you to do questions that are only pertinent to the rotation that you are on.

⭐The book is what is promised: questions in step 2 format with very good explanations.Amazon service was excellent.

⭐Summary- Do not bother with the third edition. This review book is really outdated. Let me just start out by saying I did the whole book back to front and then I took the real exam couple of weeks after so I know what was relevant.Plus1)Good explanations- I actually got up to the point where I skip some explanations2)20 full length test consist of 50Qs- very usefully for pacing your timeMinus1)Outdated information- we have way too much information as it is definitely why stress yourself with conflicting information. A lot of there preventive medicine is outdated esp guidelines…2)Some questions are really questionable of their usefulness- eg percentage of grade school student using marijuana in a certain year. I doubt usmle would want you to know that.other comments- I didnt bother with the cd since a previous reviewer said it was crap.

⭐As a medicine professor at a medical school I have used this book to learn what information students are provided to prepare for USMLE step 2. Many medicine questions are poorly worded and use case scenarios that are not based in correct understanding of diseases or their pathophysiology. I would not recommend use of this book to prepare for the USMLE step 2.

⭐I bought this book about two weeks before my exam as a last part of my review. I was pretty excited about CD version since I just finished Kaplan’s Qbank. I had high hopes and I was disappointed. The software was bad. I had trouble navigating it, the questions repeated themselves over and over. I was super frustrated so I quit the CD and went back to the book. I really liked it. Questions were very good and the explenations were also sufficient. In the end I thought it was a good last minute preparation tool.

⭐I found this book so useful 🙂 I was planning to use it as second reminder for importants points… this book very Good in the explanation part, easy to understand

⭐The indexed questions at the back of the book make this a great resource for shelf and board studying.
