Reader ReviewsOkay, I got these because I really am weak on pharmacology for step one. They are chock full of information (more then you need) but they explain that on the insert and how to use them if studying for step 1, 2, or whatever. There were a few typos which I was not pleased with but they weren't so bad that I didn't know what the actual drugs name was. Also, I wish the cards were made of sturdier material as they were a bit to thin for my liking and bent easily. I haven't gotten any other flash cards to compare them to but overall I would recommend them. They did the job and I think they'll be still be useful next year for when I take Step 2.
