"The word is in! See what
your
peers have to say about
Laughing Your Way to Passing
the Pediatric Boards!" |

 "After
trying and trying for the past 3 years to
pass the boards, and never having used your
book, I picked it up and read it from cover
to cover and realized how I had not seen
the salient features of what the boards was
asking me. Your book more than anything helped
me pass the boards. I just got my results
back today (1/12/06). After horrible scores
(I hang my head in shame) I scored in the
500 range (need 410 to pass). YOU ARE AWESOME,
YOUR BOOK IS AWESOME AND RIGHT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" -SL |
| "I
just wanted to thank you for your excellent review books.
Of all the resources my wife and I read to pass the boards,
your book was the most informative and was fun to read.
Many of the high yield points you mentioned showed up
on the exam. Thanks again!" |
|
"After 3 failed attempts at the Peds Board, I used your
books. I just received notification that I passed.
Thank you." |
|
"Thank you!!! What else can I say. Your Pediatric
Board Review book made all the difference. It is well
organized, with short chapters trimmed ofall fat!! But
the most important element of this book is its test taking
strategies. Every chapter reminds you how to focus
on what is important!!" |

"As a constant procrastinator I was determined to study
for the Pediatric boards the right way. I bought your
entire set of books in February right after I paid for
my exam. I dillegently began studying in March and made
a strict study schedule. I got through one topic (Respiratory).
Then I had some medical complications of my pregnancy
and decided to put studying off until the baby was born.
She came the end of April with a terrible case of colic
lasting through July. I started me new job in August and
realized I was running out of time. I started studying.
One month later my baby got ill and I was unable to devote
any more time to studying. I had basically read through
the entire main text and done one book of questions.
I went to take the exam only because I had paid for it.
And a miracle happened. I passed. All the topics
were right from your book. I cannot thank you enough.
Your book gave me the info I needed to pass and gave me
countless hours back to be with my baby girl." |
| "I'm
proof that you CAN start studying Dr. Stu's book
this late in the game AND pass the boards!!! Just
go over your weak areas (based on last years' test results)
and put Dr. Stu's book to use...you'll be surprised how
easy you learn. Then, what I did was review all the subjects
I hated, and finally the fun stuff. No matter how you
choose to study it, (I received the book just 2 WEEKS
before the test AND PASSED!!!!!!) It CAN be done...Good
Luck." -VDDL |
| "This
book is exactly what I was looking for! I don't
need a study guide that gives all the details on every
disease; I need key tips and high-yield items on
syndromes and diseases and this book is perfect for that
function." øBL |
| "Yes!!
I finally passed!! I AM SOO HAPPY!! My associate
who bought the book based on my recommendation also passed!!
Our other partner who did not buy the book figuring it
was " just another book" came close to passing. She just
ordered it and now knows that she will read it, enjoy
it and will pass the next time." - KG |
| "Your
book helped me tremendously on the boards!" -JM |
| "Stu,
I passed with flying colors. If I were to do anything
different it would be to start earlier with your book
and an Atlas. I can't tell you how many questions on the
test were dead ringers for your presentation of the material.
More than once every test booklet, I remember thinking:
"Thanks Stu for the alley oop slam dunk!" -MM |
| "Your
book was fantastic!!! I was set to take the boards
last October and had not heard of your book I felt I was
too tired to look at any new material. I barely had the
strength to do my final reviewing, much less crack another
book, but Malcolm convinced me otherwise. I thought I
was going to casually glance at some topics, but ended
up reading it cover to cover. It was amazingly useful.
In the opening chapters you covered just about every aspect
of two intense days. The real meat and potatoes for me
were the tips and memory aids. I can't tell you enough
how helpful it was for you to tell us to use our highlighters,
make notes in the margins, don't get bogged down or discouraged
with long, long paragraph-type questions." -JV |
| "Just
want to congratulate Dr. Silverstein on an excellent
review book. Just took the Boards last October and
know I nailed several questions just for having read the
book (three times). My only regret is that I didnÕt have
it last year." - E.B. |
| "Great
book. This is the second copy I am ordering (for my wife.)"

book is fabulous." ø IM |

"Your book helped me tremendously on the boards!
I highly recommend it." - JM |

"Did really well on the dysmorphology/genetics,
which I credit mostly to the book, since our training
in that area was weak." - EB |
|
"I did the self assessment question book and it was very
helpful- the graph you had with different growth rates
for organ systems was very familiar" øDB |
| "I've
tried several expensive review courses, and have FAILED
to pass the boards despite their guarantees. Your book
offer came to my door through the mail. The title was
interesting enough that I HAD to take a look at
it. It was much less expensive than the thousands of dollars
(literally!) that I have already spent on courses AND
administrative fees for taking the boards!! At the very
least I would get a laugh from reading it. The book arrived
about 10 days before the exam and after reading the first
few pages, I realized, "Hey, this guy really has his finger
on the pulse of the boards." |
| "You
are absolutely correct if you've taken the boards
before and failed, then it is time to change your approach.
I took it to heart and went on a mission to read as much
as I could in the 9 days left. And I PASSED!!!!!! CAN
YOU BELIEVE IT!!?? Your methods ACTUALLY work. Where
were you all these years??? I wonder what my score would've
been if I had received the book earlier? You cannot imagine
what a weight you have lifted from my shoulders. Your
book saved my life. I'll be more than willing to vouch
for your book...its the leastI can do for what you have
helped me accomplish. I could go on and on"-VL |
| "Thank
you so much for your help and advice. I really enjoyed
your book. I passed the Boards with room to spare!!
I am so excited and can now focus on my true passion -
Neonatology." Thank you! -SL |
