This revision resource for medical students offers a variety of assessment questions, detailed feedback, and difficulty ratings. It complements the Oxford Handbook of Medical Sciences and supports effective exam preparation.
Oxford Assess and Progress: Medical Sciences is a comprehensive revision resource tailored for medical students. This book serves as an excellent complement to the Oxford Handbook of Medical Sciences, while also being effective as a standalone study tool. It features a diverse collection of assessment formats, including Single Best Answers (SBAs) and Extended Matching Questions (EMQs), all focused on essential topics in medical science. Each question is accompanied by detailed feedback, guiding students through the reasoning behind the correct answers and providing references to further materials for deeper understanding.
The resource is designed by subject matter experts and assessment professionals, ensuring that the content is both relevant and engaging. The book includes a variety of image-based questions, which are particularly beneficial for preparing students for visual assessments they may encounter in exams. Additionally, chapter introductions offer concise overviews, helping students to quickly grasp the key concepts of each topic before diving into the questions.
One of the standout features of Oxford Assess and Progress: Medical Sciences is its structured approach to difficulty levels, rating each question from the perspective of a medical student to that of a junior doctor. This allows students to assess their progress and tailor their study efforts accordingly. With its emphasis on quality and thorough review, this resource is a reliable companion for medical students aiming to excel in their examinations and deepen their understanding of medical sciences.
This useful review book allows medical students and medical graduates to review and self-assess their level of knowledge in the biomedical/basic sciences. The book's small size makes it very convenient to carry in a pocket for access in almost any environment. This would be a valuable tool for medical students and medical graduates, at any level of training, who are preparing for standardized exams (boards, licensing, specialty, etc.). * Doody's Review *
"This book is a fantastic, unique resource, assessing the application of basic science to clinical problems. The problems are varied and realistic and so this is not just good exam preparation but it's also good fun! " * Tom Kelley, Junior Doctor, UK *
I am a convert to this revision tool which uniquely has its assessments pitched at graded levels of rigour to meet the needs of medical students and junior doctors alike. The balance of clinical and medical sciences in the clinical sceanrio lead-ins and the answer feedbacks makes for an invaluable learning resource. * Dr Roger Searle, Director of Anatomy and Clinical Skills, The Medical School, University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK *
