Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - very good transaction!!
The product was definitely to my liking, great price and quick and easy transaction. I am very satisfied and will do bussiness again!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Incredibly helpful!
This was a great review for the Step 2 CS Exam. I hadn't seen a patient for 6 months before I took the exam, and after I'd read this book and practiced all the cases I felt very confident. Highly recommended.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - fair
Good to practice hystory taking and to try to think what's more important to ask. Good, but you need more than this for the exam.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Pass this up
I bought this book in an attempt to save some money -- I was also considering First Aid, but didn't want to spend more than 20 bucks given how much money has already gone into this silly test. Unfortunately, my gamble didn't pay off. This book is alright - has a basic overview of the test format and what to expect as well as 20 sample cases. However, I recently took a peek at a copy of First Aid for CS, and found it to be much more complete. It has several very simple and high-yield test taking tips that Blueprints lacks, and has much more thorough explanations of the sample cases. So I sucked it up and forked over some money for a used copy of First Aid, and feel like I will be better prepared. I also realized that, given the expenditure on this test, I'd rather invest a few extra bucks in my study materials to ensure I don't have to retake this sucker.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I PASSED WITH THIS BOOK
It wasn't the only book that I purchased, but it was the only one that I needed!

This book was an easy, organized read that helped me to understand the format of the exam and what the examiners were looking for. Most importantly, I learned who was scoring me and how. This knowledge REALLY helped me to focus HOW I took the exam. Also vital were the practice cases. While I used separate notecards to test myself, the author provides plenty of space to jot down thoughts and answers. Scoring myself helped me to identify my weak areas so I could focus my study. The only down side is the inability to time yourself as you would in a real testing scenario - THIS IS AS CLOSE AS IT GETS!
