Excellent range of topics, complicated question stems
September 26, 2018
I picked up this book at the advice of my senior residents, who were devotees of Cheng Ching’s board review (many of them using it as their sole study source). While I used this as part of a larger study regimen that included topical review books geared at my weaknesses as well as an overall outline review book (Mayo Clinic), I did find it to be very helpful and probably the best question book geared at the boards.
The book covers a broad range of neurology, from psychiatry all the way to child neurology and the bread-and-butter neurophys stuff. The explanations are concise yet detailed enough so the reader doesn’t have to look up terminology frequently, and I found myself tabbing many of the pages for further reference. So why only four stars? The question stems are complicated at times to the point of being comical; many of the stems ask “Which of the following is incorrect” or “Which of the following is correct” and then many of the answer options have double negatives, further confusing the reader. I remembered an adage a prior supervisor had told me – “Tests should test your knowledge, not your test-taking skills”; at times this book felt more like a logic puzzle rather than a neurology test.
I did feel that this book prepared me well for the exam, but wish that the questions had been better written. It is still vastly superior to other question books out there, which I sampled and didn’t spend further time on. I can’t speak as to using this book as your only reference, as I did not do that, and felt that the other sources complemented each other well. However, I would recommend this book with the caveat to the reader not to get frustrated over missing questions; the language of the question stems led me to miss more questions than I would have if the phrasing and question structure had been easier to understand.

Exam companion, ward companion.
September 11, 2017
There are plenty of “board review” books out there that offer “tid bits” and bullet points on topics. Neurology being a specialty of oddities and rare diseases, that is not surprising. But for exam, you have to put those factoids into clinical context, and a clinical case vignette goes a long way in helping you etch a condition on to your memory. That’s what makes Comprehensive Review in Clinical Neurology stand out. It sketches in surprising detail, most cases to give a sense of what a patient – say, with Canavan disease or Neurocysticercosis or Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy – looks like. One may find it a little annoying that it has a lot of negatively worded questions – as in ‘which of these is incorrect regarding neuromyotonia?’ But you won’t be disappointed. The questions are designed to be comprehensive, just as the title of the book suggests. You may not need to know all about a certain disease on the boards.
But it certainly helps when you’re down to two or three choices and you can make educated guesses. Dr Cheng-Ching has taken special care to make the descriptive answers to each question, a stand-alone one. So you may see the discussion on Triple-H therapy or Cluster headache or Tay Sachs disease several times beneath the answers to different questions where other choices are discussed. You will find this very useful when you are a few weeks from the boards and wants to refresh your memory as often as you can. The pathology and radiology sections have expanded since the first edition, which is a welcome addition. The Kindle edition could however do better with pictures and tables of better resolution. Also navigation from questions to answers would be much easier of they had internal links (like they have for the figure titles). Before concluding, I should also add that this book is not just for the boards, but for the wards as well. The vignette in Epilepsy, Neuromuscular topics (eg., plexus, root search etc), were very helpful during my residency. And they, of course, came handy at the RITE and the ABPN boards.

Hands down, the best Boards prep out there
September 29, 2012
I don’t ever write reviews; I consume them. But I found this book to be so superior to everything else on the market that I feel an obligation to share my opinion. Months before I started studying for the Boards, I surveyed people from my program who had taken the Boards in previous years to find out how they had prepared. Many people had used the purple Mowzoon book.
While everyone said without fail that the “list format” made it hard to retain information, they found it useful from the standpoint of being comprehensive, if nothing else. I flipped through the book several times, but I was unable to convince myself that I would learn anything from it, precisely because information is arranged in a tabular format, with next to no context, and that’s not how I learn.
Everyone I talked to said they had also used NeuroPrep, the only widely used online neurology question bank out there. One person even said he had used NeuroPrep exclusively, knowing he didn’t have the time to read a text book like Adams and Victor, or the attention span to benefit from a book like Mowzoon. Somebody else cited similar objections to Mowzoon and said she had used Ultimate Review (featured on the AAN website) because it had more text than tables. Incidentally, both of these people passed their Boards.
I decided not to bother with Mowzoon, so I went ahead and bought NP and UR. As I started making my way through these two resources, I realized early on that UR is full of factual errors, as some reviews had correctly pointed out. How the AAN can endorse such a book is not the subject of this discussion, but suffice it to say UR is not a reliable resource. As for NP, I found the questions were mostly OK, but the answer explanations were entirely too cursory. Only a handful of explanations went into detail regarding why the other choices were wrong, while the majority offered no in-depth discussion. Many images were poor quality, with explanations that failed to point out the salient features of the image with arrows or arrowheads. I also found more than a few factual errors in NP. In short, NP is greatly over-rated.
This pushed my hand to seek out other resources. I had used First Aid for all the USMLE Steps, and I liked their format, so I bought First Aid for the Neurology Boards. While I was doing an internet search for other books, I also came across Comprehensive Review in Clinical Neurology. There were no more than 3 or 4 reviews I could get my hands on, but they were all positive, so I thought it was worth a shot. It turns out it’s by far the best resource for Boards preparation out there.
While I was going through this book, I re-discovered my love for neurology, which had been forced into a state of hibernation through the tedium of residency. The book is arranged into 17 chapters, covering everything from critical care to psychiatry, as well as the pertinent basic science highlights for each subject. My particular weaknesses were neuromuscular, epilepsy, and child neurology, which I covered first. The questions are hard and thought-provoking, and require you to stay on your toes (e.g. all of the following are correct except…).
The answer explanations are a pleasure to read–detailed, accurate, comprehensive, and long enough to be useful without dragging on and on. The images are fantastic (pathology, EEG, EMG etc.). Perhaps most important of all, the book gives you that sense of a comprehensive review, true to its otherwise uninspiring title. I learned a lot from this book, and I’m grateful to the people who put it together. It’s worth its weight in gold.
I just took my Boards, which means I don’t have my score yet, but having read Comprehensive Review, I can at least say that I found the majority of questions on the actual test easy, to the point of being trivial. I was afraid that preparing for this exam was not going to add anything to my knowledge base, that it was going to be just another standardized test that you pass by memorizing certain buzz words and phrases, but I’m happy to say that I came away from my Boards preparation with a whole new appreciation for the beauty of neurology and a whole new confidence about my knowledge base.
To make this a balanced review, let me add this. The book comes with an online question bank, which is all the questions in the book, except they’re online. I tried using this resource, but I found the book to be more useful. If you select random mode, the online version brings up questions in–you guessed it–a random fashion. There are many question stems in the book, just like the second half of the actual Boards Exam, so occasionally you’ll get a question like “based on your diagnosis in question X, what should be the next step in management?” You haven’t seen question X, so you have no idea what the diagnosis is, or what the next step ought to be.
I bet this is something they can easily fix, by making sure question stems come up first and the sister questions follow from the question stem when you’re using random mode, but this feature is not there at this point. So if you feel you have to do computer-based questions to prepare for that aspect of the test, you might find this frustrating. We’ve all taken so many computerized exams in our careers so far that I don’t think this is crucial, but if you must, you can go ahead and sink some money into NP to practice your mouse click. Your money may be better spent on First Aid, which does have very helpful diagrams, tables, and other visual aids.
I cannot say enough about Comprehensive Review. It will continue to be a resource to me in the future.
