Its a good book like FA of Kaplan Lecture Notes. Best would be to give good reads of KLN at least 3 times then do FA or if you have time constraints then you can do KLN 2 times and do Medessentials adding missing stuff from KLN. Some parts are good some are deficient. Like Biochemistry and Immuno is good if you want to skip the volume of text written in KLN but Micro is deficient. So, advisable would be that you do KLN and compare that section with KME and come to your own decision from where you want to read that section.

kaplan medessential is concise

u can say its summary 4 the notes

also it is divided 2 system based chapters=>contrast 2 subject based notes

first there r chapters regrading general principles in path, pharma, behsci, immun,...........

then it starts the system based chapetrs

i like it more than FA

but u know FA is more popular

there thing in FA not in kaplan medessential & vice versaconfused

gizmo ,

Seriously, just browse your situation & with 1 fail, one to loose exm fees, you should seriously think about kap course if you like, now has discount promotion ends 30 June. Not going to link for, you seem know it.
Try to book exm only when good study almost there with good NBME .

Re med Ess , part of it can get from some Goodgirl here at support forum.
