I’m an old dinosaur, having just completed my second ABEM RE-cert. I took the Nat’l Emerg Med Board Review course, but I about panicked when I got to the course, and realized how much I had forgotten. It was too late to try to finish the PEER, especially since the new one isn’t out yet, so I gave this one a try.
I did not even open it on my Kindle. I used ‘s "Cloud Reader", and it worked great. I like the bulleted outline format, instead of a lot of text. I just wanted the important items, my brain seems to incorporate bulleted items as visual images. On my laptop, it was like looking at a powerpoint slide. Easy to go to the next page, either with the up/down, left/right, or pageup/down keys.
I liked their bolding of important items. I didn’t have time to finish it since I started late. I had one question that stumped me today, I looked it up, and there it was. Fortunately I had taken an educated guess, and was right… I think.
Color graphics were good, although if there is a way to "zoom", I don’t know how to do it. It would have been helpful. REALLY ANNOYING that I can’t cut and paste even a small piece for my notes [again there may be, but not obvious].
I think that it was a very good review, and based on the questions that I just saw a few hours ago, if I knew that book front to back, I don’t think passing the test would be hard. In my first cert, and even my first re-cert, I as able to COMPLETELY READ Tintinalli’s book. Bought one a year ago with a grand plan, "x" chapters a week… well, you can guess how well that went. This book would certainly be "doable". Worth the $, I believe. Lot cheaper than Mallon’s course (~$1500 + hotel/airfare).
Nice concise review
