This exam review book has been developed and endorsed by the American Academy of Physician Assistants (AAPA) and the Physician Assistant Education Association (PAEA). This new Fourth Edition features "high-yield" outline format review and pre- and post-test questions based on the blueprint drafted by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants (NCCPA). The text provides balanced coverage between educational concepts and clinical practice. A companion website features fully searchable text and a question bank offering a total of 600 pre- and post-test questions. The 300 pretest questions also appear in the book.
This is the book I used mostly to help me study for boards. You should see the inside of it! I have highlights, extra written notes and post-its and hand-outs all over the inside. It's not perfect and could have more things added, but I really liked it...especially the pre and post tests that are included.
I don't love the way the book is organized. Some of it could have been done better. I'm just not happy with the fact that I can't access the online version or the test questions anymore...because there is a newer version. Lame.
This was a frustrating book because I found some mistakes in the answer keys to sample questions...not so helpful when you question wether your review book is correct!
