Series Preface
The First and Second Editions of the Rapid Review Series have received high
critical acclaim from students studying for the United States Medical Licensing
Examination (USMLE) Step 1 and consistently high ratings in First Aid for the
USMLE Step 1. The new editions will continue to be invaluable resources for
time-pressed students. As a result of reader feedback, we have improved upon an
already successful formula. We have created a learning system, including a print
and electronic package, that is easier to use and more concise than other review
products on the market.
