This book was wonderful in helping me through my acute medical
attachment and was a brilliant aid in revision for final exams. The
mix of SBAs and EMQs was very useful in testing my knowledge and
are the same style of those used in finals. Having detailed answers
and feedback really helped me consolidate the more difficult
topics. With each question assigned a 'star rating' I know it will
be useful in my future career when hopefully I shall be able to get
more of the difficult questions right!' Caroline Rance, Student,
