Book Reviews of First Aid for the NBDE Part I (First Aid)

Book Review: Pretty good
Summary: 4 Stars

This book helped me study for the NBDE. It presents a very concise outline of the material on the exam with some helpful mnemonics and diagrams. Most every page has one or two notes in the margins with facts needed to answer released NBDE questions.

The content covered by the book seemed to coincide pretty well with about 75% of the exam. However, this book is probably best used as an outline to remind you of the important topics. If there are topics that you don't remember well you may need to look them up in a more comprehensive book. This is especially true if you want to ace the test.

This first edition was a little rough with a lot of typographical error, but on the plus side the factual content seemed accurate. The dental anatomy section provided a lot of help, especially a simple way to remember eruption times, but I would say that it was very incomplete. You will need additional dental anatomy study materials.

All in all this book was worth the price in terms of the amount of help it provided me.
