5.0 out of 5 stars Quite possibly the best book for Micro (both classes and USMLE)!, Mar 6 2011

By Senor Bike Man - Published on Amazon.com

I have used many microbiology books to study for my medschool exams (in particular Microbio made ridiculously easy). And I've been getting a thorough understanding through many textbooks. However, Deja Review is the ultimate book for reviewing all the information in a concise and yet still-detailed manner.

For the USMLE, this is a must-have. I told this to many other students, and they have all thanked me for sharing this book. It's money all the way. Microbio is an extensive topic, and this book has many many many chapters devoted to the extensiveness of this subject. Yet, the most important thing about this question/answer format is that they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin'. Lemme say that again, they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' - they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' - they constantly use REPETITION to get points into your noggin' ---- see, you get it now.

Cheers!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for USMLE micro, Jan 14 2011

This review is from: Deja Review Microbiology & Immunology, Second Edition (Paperback)

This book is just the perfect supplement for micro and immuno to go with First Aid. Forget made Ridiculously Simple, it's ridiculously too long for what you need. This book looks like it has more pages, it does by number, but the dimensions of the book are much smaller, if it were MMMRS size it would be about ~150 pages. This is perfect with first aid, it covers everything in a great question answer format.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it! Worth everey Penny, Oct 16 2010

This review is from: Deja Review Microbiology & Immunology, Second Edition (Paperback)

This is a great supplement to First Aid and Goljan.The immunology section is just enough to get you to the level of understanding Goljan and FA without being too much to read. Micro is great too -especially if FA seems to skimpy, Ridiculously Simple is too much to read, or if Goljan seems too scattered. If you need a quick start, refresher or a book to fill in the blanks, buy this one.
