Summary: excellent book at great price
Comment: The transaction was easy and I received the book in a reasonable amount of time. The book was in good shape and came just as described.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Decent, but may be overkill - 870 difficult questions!
Comment: Overall, this family medicine question book represents a decent review for the clerkship and shelf exam. I spent countless hours working through this book and managed to get through it once before the shelf, but I wonder if my time would've been better spent with another resource. Here are some things I noticed:
1. The cover clearly states "nearly 500 all new questions", but I counted about 870 questions! While more questions are welcome, it is definitely hard to master so many in a 6 week rotation. Had I known the true number of questions before, I would've considered purchasing the new Pretest Family Medicine book instead.
2. The style of questions does not resemble the nbme shelf exam questions (my subjective opinion after taking the shelf)
3. Some questions require a very detailed level of knowledge - to the point of splitting hairs to get the question right. Even after looking things up in several textbooks, there were some questions that I still could not find the answer to. I sometimes wondered if these were valid teaching points.
4. The answer explanation format could be better. Instead of listing each answer choice separately and stating why each is correct/incorrect, there is a paragraph. It was sometimes difficult to know which sentence went with each choice because there was no transition from one answer choice explanation to the next.

Summary: Best book I've used in medical school!!!!
Comment: I got this book because I needed something to study for my M3 clerkship shelf exam and I was told Blue Prints was not good and there is no First Aid. It took me a long time to go through all of the questions and extensive explanations but it was totally worth it. Some of the questions I had on the shelf were almost identical to those in the book. I have since loaned my copy out to several people with rave reviews. This has been my favorite book in medical school so far!

Summary: Ok, but not the best.
Comment: I used this book while on my Fam med rotation during 3rd year of medical school. At the time, there were not many books designed for medical students specifically on FP. The was no First Aid or Blueprints Family Medicine book for example.
This book was just average. The FP shelf exam is one of the most difficult ones. I found that the format of the questions in this book did not really reflect the types of questions usually asked on those shelf exams. This book was not that helpful, it was tedious to work through, and overall not an efficient use of study time.
I found it more useful to read through the Blueprints books again on Int. Medicine, Peds, and Ob/Gyn. The "Outpatient Medicine Recall" book is actually really good and I would recommend that book very highly.
Customer Rating:
Summary: excellent, best source for family shelf
Comment: Just use this and your set. I had a 4 week rotation in fam med & had not yet had, ob/gyn, peds or IM, but I did well using this text. I only got through half of the text, but did that the night before. I only wish I'd got it sooner.
