Psychology

Great book for going over the topics, but you have to have some understanding already of psychology.

Dry.......

Much drier than any actual Med School course I remember except maybe Ethics!
Did cover diagnosis

Ok for students

Some of the answers are a bit confusing and inconsistent. However it is ok for a review at 1.5x speed or faster. Also some massively mispronounced terms.

A few errors in Chapter 10

Ch. 10 Question 6 @ 48:11.
Question 6 reads - which substance abuse disorder has a craving for pain killers?
A: The answer given - amphetamine abuse disorder. The CORRECT answer should be OPIOID abuse disorder. Opioids are a type of pain killer.

Chapter 10 @ 49:24
The question reads - which substance abuse disorder is treated with Antabuse?
A: the answer given was tobacco use disorder. The CORRECT answer should be ALCOHOL abuse disorder.
Tobacco use disorder can be treated with nicotine replacements such as gum, lozenges, or patches.

Review

This company does a spectacular job explaining key points with clear and concise explanations that can be reviewed again and again until all material is absorbed. I would recommend this product to any medical student as part of their study materials.
