Summary: "Shows a bias regarding ME"
Two of the four questions on ME (CFS) show a bias that toward thinking it is a psychiatric illness. Things like "search for serious and treatable illnesses" and "tell the patient about the role of inactivity in causing fatigue" among others. Advocating more activity to an ME patient often results in increased morbidity because of post exertional malaise.
There are oven 4,000 articles in peer reviewed medical journals showing significant biological pathology in ME.

Summary: "this is a joke in the name of bord review"
The questions are ridiculously simple, and does not reflect the boards in terms of presentation, complexity and content. Even as a study guide it's focus is not evenly distributed, because that's what you need when you are prepaing for Part I.
I gave it 3 stars only because it has it's own niche. There are not many question books to use before taking the Part I.
