These '500 questions, answers, and explanation' books are designed to simulate the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1. Each is authored by an expert in the field and has been reviewed by students who have recently passed the exam. As Step 1 is becoming increasingly more clinical in nature, when applicable, clinical vignette-style questions requiring a two-step reasoning process are also included. All of the Pretest titles include a 'high-yield' fact section to reinforce key concepts.'There are numerous study guides available to medical students preparing for the various steps of the USMLE. The Pre-Test series has always been one of the better study guides, and this new behavioral science edition is no exception. Its thoroughness and pertinent references should more than suffice to adequately prepare any student for behavioral science questions on the USMLE Step 1. In addition, practicing psychiatrists may find it useful as a means to hone their skills in this rapidly changing field.' '5 Stars' - Doody's
