 The title speaks for itself June 19, 2008
By using only this book I scored a 95% on Step 3. It is easy to use, short, and to the point. If you want to do well, and you know this book inside and out, you should be good to go.

excellent overview book. concise. good organization. high-yield materials. great for those 5-10 minute breaks. content is too limited to be the only resource. need to supplement your study with real textbooks.
another excellent review book May 4, 2008
This is the second source that I used to study for my step 3. It's very concise and has the elements you need to pass this test. A must!
Very good concise resource March 17, 2008
Crush step 3 is a great concise resource given the time crunch that many of us are in during the intern year. I like the layout moreso than that of the First Aid books. First aid presents an outline format that gets choppy, i.e. makes you try to memorize lists for every topic. Crush flows better containing written synopses about each topic.
I agree with other reviews claiming that this resource offers limited review in pediatric and Ob/Gyn. Being a pediatrics intern, I was prepared for the pediatrics section of the exam based on my experience as a resident. However, the pediatrics section is definitely watered down too much to use Crush as a sole resource. The OB/Gyn was certainly not enough. Having not thought about many of the gynecologic topics since medical school, I would've been in trouble at exam time had I not completed many Ob/Gyn samply items in a question book (Kaplan Q book for Step 3).
Again, good concise resource, but lacking with respect to pdediatrics and Ob/Gyn.
 good material but not enough January 8, 2008

with such great reviews i was so happy to have found this book but once i opened it... it was all down ill after that. i think if ur really freash with step 2 then its a useful book. but i was a 3rd year resident when i decided to take it and i needed far more indeth recall and studying for step 3. even failed step 3. so finally took kaplan live lectures. brilliant. after 10 days i was ready to take the exam. fastest prep of all time are the kaplan live lecture ones.. but my case was different.. just get over ur step3 real quick. as fast as u can. for the early birds im sure this is a great book. for me way too superficial.
