Media Reviews
Review from previous edition For any medical students in their clinical years, this is the best MCQ book I have seen yet for preparing for written exams, and I highly recommend buying it. * Sophie Merrick, Student, University of Manchester *
Finally an Oxford Handbook MCQ book. Just as fantastic as its big brother the OHCS, this is the essential accompaniment to this text. Packed full of MCQs and EMQs it is the perfect revision guide to test your knowledge. It has detailed explanations for each answer as well as referencing you back to the OHCS should you wish to learn more. Singularly one of the best MCQ books on the market as not only does it test, but it teaches, and with the cross referencing you can save time trying to read around the topic as you know just exactly where you need to go. A perfect new MCQ book for medical students and junior doctors. * D. Pilkington, Student, University of Manchester *
