Book Synopsis

Maximum Retention—Minimal Time

"Deja Review provides a review of biostatistics, epidemiology, ethics and health care systems in a manner that I have not found in other review books. What I liked best is the versatility ... It's small enough to carry around in my backpack and I can flip to a chapter between classes or during downtime." — Daniel Marcovici, Third Year Medical Student, Tel Aviv University, Sackler School of Medicine

"The format of the book is great. This is a great book for Step 1 and the shelf. It focused on high yield subjects ... I found it useful even to refer to for the psychiatry clerkship." — Sarah Fabiano, Third Year Medical Student, SUNY Update Medical University
