Additional Step-Up to Medicine (Step-Up Series) Information
|
This book is a primary review tool to prepare students for both the internal medicine clerkship and the end-rotation NBME shelf examination. This logical alternative to several limited-focus books blends a bullet-outline format students prefer in a review book with comprehensive paragraphs, as needed, for optimal preparation. Illustrations, charts, tables, graphs, mnemonics, and "Quick Hits" pearls for the clerkship speed and supplement learning. Ample content without superfluous detail enables students to readily evaluate and expand their knowledge of cardiology, pulmonary medicine, gastroenterology, hematology, neurology, endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, genitourinary disorders, fluids and electrolytes, dermatology, and musculoskeletal problems. A new section in this Second Edition presents 100 USMLE-style clinical vignette-based questions with answers. A color insert contains over thirty full-color images. A companion Website will offer the fully searchable text and color photographs.

What Customers Say About Step-Up to Medicine (Step-Up Series):

I used this for both my 6 week rotations of Inpatient Medicine. It is a great reference when you need to refresh your learning on topics of medicine. I think it is worth purchasing for anyone who wants to excel on their NBME Shelf Exams.
I am a lazy writter. I just want say that you have to mantein this book in your personal Library
I recommend this book to anyone studying for the Internal Medicine shelf and Step 2 CK. It's very informative and has a good format. It's been a big help for studying.
I got this one as well as Blueprints Medicine.I would say this one is better than Blueprints, its a truly great book for studying. Perfect layout and nice key facts in the margins.
I found that it was more useful as a reference book to read up about your particular patients than to study for the shelf, but then I guess that sort of is studying. I'm a current 3rd year med student in the U.S. Step Up really has good info about managing your patient's care though. and recently completed my Medicine rotation. I bought this book because it seemed like it was so essential. It might also be quite useful for an intro to clinical medicine type of course where you are learning clinical details in an organ system by organ system basis to compliment your basic science knowledge.However, it is long, very dense and the bullet point format is not easy to read/retain (at least for me). I don't know how people say they actually read through this in a few days and retain anything for the shelf exam.
