ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Just 1 of 5 successful titles in this USMLE Step 2 & 3 Review Series.The goal of "Blueprints in Pediatrics" is to enable the reader to review the core material quickly and efficiently.The topics within this review book were chosen after analyzing over 2,000 review questions representative of the Pediatrics questions on the USMLE Steps 2 & 3.Rather than comprehensive coverage of Pediatrics, this book is composed of the "high-yield" topics that consistently appear on the exams.All material in this book is presented either as the work-up of a symptom, or as a discussion of a particular disease, to better prepare you for the new "Clinical Vignette" format of the USMLE Board Exams.
USER REVIEWS
"This book is set up like a full-length book, but is condensed into a review format. Each section gives some general information about the body system before going into each diagnosis. It's written up in paragraph style instead of bullet-point. "

"This book is ok for a quick once over of all topics relevant to Pediatrics. However, it lacks any detail on the most important and high yield topics. I found myself consistently looking up topics on [...] and using other resources thus making this book a poor choice as a primary resource for pediatrics."

"I would recommend First Aid over this one. Blueprints lacks in important basic topics such as nutrition.
Today I saw a child in the ward with chronic glomerulonephritis and opened this book, it had 3 sentences on the topic. At the same time some extremely rare disorders are covered in much more detail."

"Throughout med school I have been a big fan of the Blueprints series, however, this book lacks the high yield organization and writing that other Blueprints exemplify.
Many of the chapters are inundated with minutia, and trivia that is not warranted for the shelf or steps.
Overall it is a good read, but I would prefer a much higher yield text."

"The Blueprints book is good. It is pretty concise and readable. Probably doesn't contain all the info you need. The one I got unfortunately had a lot of writing and highlighting in it, but it was ok."
