Average Rating: 
Rating: - Excellent prep for the NBME shelf! Get it!
If there's only one book you can master in preparation for the pediatrics shelf exam, this is definitely the one. I used this book in conjunction with case files and got my best shelf grade ever. Here are some things I noticed:
1. The material covered in this book is relevant, with the appropriate level of detail, and almost all inclusive of the shelf exam. Many of the questions I encountered in this book were almost the same as the ones I saw on the exam.

Rating: - best bang for the buck
I used PreTest Pediatrics as my sole study aid for the Pediatrics recertification board exam, which I took yesterday. In all my years of taking medical exams (med school, residency, fellowship, and now recertification) I have never seen so many questions on the actual exam that so closely mirror the questions I studied.

Rating: - Probably the best step 2 book in this series.
This is probably the best single source for pediatric prep for step 2. I've gone through the Lorin book and found it to be too picky vs. the step 2 exam.

I think i bought if for about $20. Well worth it. Trust me. I scored > 2 sd above the mean.
Don't waste your time with blue prints.
Rating:  - Strongest of the Series
Relevant, quick, and useful questions. Having used the Pretest series before with great disappointment (Surgery, Psych, Ob/Gyn), I decided to ditch Pretest except that I heard several good comments on med student forums. Much to my surprise, the questions in this book covered pertient facts. Unlike other Pretest books, this one omits most of the picky and numerical based questions that don't show up on exams. The 500 questions are organized in sensible fashion to allow you to target weak areas. ... Read More
