| Customer Reviews: Great question book October 16, 2009 J. Paul (chicago) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book is organized by topic within pathology. Each section is about 30-50 multiple choice questions with extensive answers that both address why some options are correct and why others are incorrect. Coordinates well with the Robbins textbook but can be used alone without confusion. Very helpful for anyone taking a pathology course or studying for USMLE Step 1, although some of the questions may not be as difficult as one would see on the actual test. With that said, anyone using Robbins text should be using this gauge their understanding.
