Over FIVE HUNDRED five-star ratings of the second edition, including the following:
"I LOVE this book: it has all the key examinations with each fitting on a single double page spread.""Best preparation for OSCEs. Learn to do these steps within the time limits and you will pass!"
"I bought this book on the recommendation of a friend and it is the most comprehensive, logical, and concise summary of examination technique I have found presented in a clean and legible bullet point format. It even includes additional information (e.g. differential diagnoses, physiological changes in pregnancy) to help you answer the questions OSCE examiners like to ask to determine which candidates deserve the ever-elusive 'marks for excellence'. Perfect for OSCEs, clinical years, and beyond."
"Has everything you could possibly need in an examination textbook/revision guide, no need for any others. One of the best purchases I've made in med school. Highly recommended."
"The book is well presented for learning examinations; using a table format, explanations are given without detracting from the process of the examination. It is far more than a checklist, it provides essential information without cluttering walls of text between one step and the next."
"Pretty much THE essential text book for clinical examinations for all medical students. Good price and will take you from day one to qualifying as every colleague who has just graduated swears by this book for clinical OSCEs."
