You Pass the Boards by Manu
Mathews
Best Question Book
This review book contains 1,200 multiple-choice questions modeled on the
types of questions seen in Part 1 of the board certification exam in adult
psychiatry. The questions are accompanied by answers and explanations
for why one answer is correct and the others are incorrect. Questions are
divided into 17 specialty categories--basic psychopathology,
schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, geriatric psychiatry,
child psychiatry, consultation-liaison psychiatry, forensic psychiatry,
substance misuse, eating disorders and sexual disorders, mental
retardation, sleep disorders, personality disorders, psychopharmacology,
psychotherapies, psychology, and neurology. An additional chapter covers
miscellaneous topics. All information has been thoroughly reviewed by
experienced psychiatrists.

Personal Review: Psychiatry: 1,200 Questions to Help You Pass
the Boards by Manu Mathews
I found this book to be helpful. Overall, the questions seem to approximate
the level of difficulty one might expect from Boards. There are some
questions basaed on clinical vignettes, but not as many as I would have
liked. Questions are grouped into nineteen chapters dedicated to specific
topics, and there is a well-constructed index. These features were very
helpful in terms of organizing my study and focusing on my weaker areas.
I ended up giving priority to this text in my study for Boards. The most
significant weaknesses are that the psychology and psychotherapy
questions seem to be too limited in their number and breadth. It would
also be nice if there were some questions based on imaging. These
weaknesses, though, seem to be common in review texts and question
books.
