Reviews

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

⭐The book contains 50 questions on each of 11 topics and explains the answers for each. As with all question books, there is frequently an unclear explanation on why the correct answer is the best, or why the incorrect answers are not. This seemed to be particularly the case in the neruoophthalmology section. Some have criticized that these questions are easier than those on the written qualifying exam, and I tend to agree. It is probably a better OKAP study aid for first or second year residents, lest one get a false sense of security when studying for the actual exam. It is an inexpensive source of CME credits, with each section worth 3 hours of AMA category 1 credits. I find these prices laughable, considering on AAO.org you can get it at the nonmember price for $265, and many in the market for this book should be an AAO member and can get it new for $195.

⭐I found this book extremely useful for exam preparation
