Good USMLE, not great for a micro class:
These are good USMLE style micro cards. I found them useful for review of material before boards. For an actual micro class they aren't so helpful. They weren't something I could really use to learn new material (like say Netter's flashcards in anatomy).
Med Students need this:
Great for med students, helped me study for Step 1, and still reference back to them for use on my clinical rotations. Very helpfull easy to read and comprehend, but still has good detail.
MICROCARDS are a must:
I love these cards. They have great organization and just the right amount of detail. These are probably the best microcards out there.
The Best Cards!:
BUY THESE INSTEAD OF BUGCARDS! These cards are amazing for both learning and reviewing. As a first year medical student, I appreciate how concise and useful the information is. The first 8 or so cards show the common infections in each organ system - VERY HIGH YIELD! The rest of the cards cover the important human pathogens. Also included are helpful algorithms and explanations of virulence and toxins. I didn't take micro before now, and I was able to follow along perfectly well. Another resource you may... more info
