 Can not assess the book online as Online Code was used ! January 5, 2009
I purchased this book on Amazon store(new) but to my surprise the online code of the book was already been used. After 3 week of repeated call and hassle, they are going to replace the book now.br /So if you want to use online part of this book better buy from somewhere else because book itself is worth buying.
helpful but dense December 1, 2008

bought this in addition to first aid and found it has way more detail and is a much slower review tool than first aid. however, since first aid is so concise, I have found it to be a good supplement with great summaries of concepts not explained in first aid... great to have, just wouldn't recommend this as your only study book.

I purchased this book for the preparation of my exams and have found it to be very resourceful and informative. I highly recommend this book for studying.
So much better August 18, 2008

I find this book beats FA hands down. The material is orgnaized in logical manner and goes through each science for every system. It has more pictures and explanations than FA which I thought was a jumble of information. It also has a lot of COLOR images, which FA lacks. It has some information that FA doesn't have and vice-versa. Really, get it and FA both before the start of year 2 (or earlier) add notes in it as needed. If I had to choose just one of the two books, I would go with this one.
Great supplement to First Aid April 28, 2008

Medessentials is a great book. Slightly more detailed with better charts compared to First Aid. Both books though have information not contained in the other, while a large majority is in both. I would recommend any first years considering books for studying for Step 1 for their second year to consider buying this and using both First Aid and Medessentials together (annotating 1 or both of them) as you go through your courses/review throughout the year making the 4-8wks/study before boards easier.
