Description of First Aid for the USMLE Step 2 CK PDF 9th Edition

First Aid for Step 2 CK PDF is a good source. Not a great source. But compared to the classical Mastering the Boards combo it is leagues better. It actually covers topics in reasonable detail, especially IM topics, that MTB seems to shallowly skim over. While it is not as easy of a read, it is also not utterly worthless. MTB is made for people who just don’t remember the disease. FA is made for people who dont remember specifics in pathophys and basic treatments of disease. In short FA is more detailed which makes it harder to finish but more useful if you actually plan on using a review book.

User Reviews

Let’s get one thing out of the way first: Step 2 CK success comes from the resources and studying you did in your clinical rotations, how well you did in Step 1, and from Uworld questions and their explanations. The review book is much less relevant here than in Step 1. Importantly, however, a review book organizes your thinking and provides a single location for all the high yield facts.
Haven’t had a chance to go through it in proper detail yet but after a quick skim through side by side comparison with 2013 I can say it is better. The biggest difference this year seems to be the diagrams and pictures. There are more pictures, many of which are imaging which is much appreciated, and the diagrams seem more colorful and coherent. The pages have also been cleaned up and made more colorful so as to highlight important material. I definitely noticed a few things that were not mentioned in 2013 but as all yearly updates it’s probably 90% or more the same. In terms of material its about 50 pages larger which seems to be a combination of the new pictures, diagrams, material, and a slightly more spacious outline which I prefer. The quality of the printing appears better as well (or maybe I just got a bad copy of 2013). Should you buy it? I think yes even if just to make note of the new material (could be a Q or two on your test) and look at the plethora of new Pictures included.
