Passed my boards w/ it! by Elizabeth L. Groves (Indianapolis) 3 Stars
July 23, 2009
I used this book to supplement the Will's review course for my study. There are a few things that are wrong in the book but overall the majority of the info is really good and the ultimate goal--passing the boards was achieved! I would've given 3 1/2 stars if able.

Good OKAP Review - with optics by Nycdoc 5 Stars
March 25, 2009
One of the rare review books for OKAPS with an Optics section. Mostly accurate. All the residents at the UT- Houston Basic Science Course used this book.

Good OKAP Review by JG 5 Stars
August 31, 2008
This book does a great job of extracting much of the commonly tested minute details from the BCSC books. It is by no means comprehensive, but if used with the Mass Eye and Ear Question Book and the BCSC books it is extremely helpful, especially if you are a PGY 3 or 4 and already have a decent understanding of the material on the test.

Fantastic review book for the ABO board exam and OKAPs by B. J. Winn (Seattle, WA) 5 Stars
February 28, 2008
This is a great review of all of the BCSC series, just without the all the fluff. The only downside is relatively few pictures. Has good questions at the end of each section. Very good if you've seen the material before and need to be refreshed before an exam.
