 Awesome!! February 26, 2006

This is a great book for board review!!! The questions are separated by subject (cardiothoracic, ICU, pediatrics etc). The questions are actually more difficult than the boards with excellent annotation and references.
Great prep for written boards July 26, 2006

I thought this Q&A review book was easily the most "bang for the buck" in preparation for the written boards. It does require a solid fundamental knowledge of anesthesiology, but the questions are very representative of written board-type questions, and the answers are comprehensive and largely satisfactory. Textbook references are fairly comprehensive and accurate. I highly recommend this book as a final step in preparation for the written boards!

I read this book 3-4 times. The pedi section is very good. The explanations are where the money is becuase the themes repeat on the exam. If you can grasp the concept and understand the explaination - its very high yeild - at least it was for me.

I had the pleasure of working with Brian Hall for a couple of years and he is a fantastic educator and is always quizzing himself and others to keep everybody sharp. I used this book for my written board review and found it to be very helpful. The residents nearly universally used this review at the Mayo Clinic and seemed to feel that it was of substantial help in their preparation.
