Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, and Genetics (Board Review)

Great study resource: 9/10While a select few examples could be updated or edited to be easier to understand this book was a great resource as I prepared for the NBME subject exam on Biochem and Genetics. Great questions at the end as well as a practice test that is somewhat representative of what I saw on the real exam. Overall I thought that the end of chapter questions were more similar in caliber to the real test than the practice test, but that is just my opinion on the matter. What I really liked about this book was the great color pictures it has and level of detail that it goes into. As far as topics go, it covered all that I needed to know to do well on the subject exam.

If you want a more thorough yet concise enough review book for medical Biochemistry, go for LIR.If you want one with broad coverage of molecular biology and genetics and does not want to purchase a textbook for the topic, go for BRS Review.This book is more on genetics and molecular biology. I like the point-form arrangement of the book which makes reading easier. Moreover, there are abundant multiple choice exercises behind each chapter with answers, facilitating students' learning of the subject.This book is not very thick, but I'm sure it'll be quite useful.

Do yourself a favor and purchase this book to aid you in your test preperation. This is a small investment to benefit highly from questions and answers, or concise outlined information that gets right to the chase. Add this to your medical school bookshelf at the beginning of first year and you will not regret your purchase!

I preferred the recommended text and questions from the professor. This is a nice addition, but not a main source.

It had alot of information, but there were several topics covered in lecture which were not even addressed in this book. I know BRS doesn't guarantee that all possible BCHM topics will be covered, but I was frustrated by this.

Just say it is perfect ..... Good pedagology . The aminoacid chapter it is very simple and The kerbIs compresible and Protein syntesis very goodIf you like biochemistry and scienses you needRead this book

Worth it for the voluminous USMLE-style questions; review follows Ferrier's Lippincott's Review of Biochemistry very closely, also includes chapters on Genetics and basic endocrinology and cell signalling.
