From the Foreword by Stella Vig, National Clinical Director for Elective Care
“I really like how the less important and more important information is highlighted with different colours. For someone like me who gets bogged down with detail, knowing what to learn first (important info) and what should be learned later (less important info) would be really useful in textbooks. Using the red for red flags and emergency points is eye-catching and makes it stand out. I have never seen the different colour boxes for differential diagnosis, risk factors/triggers and complications or prognosis and I really like this idea. It makes the information more visually appealing and means these concepts are differentiated from each other which is great for making flashcards etc. The overall layout is very clear, well spaced and it is a great revision guide.”
Pre-publication review from a 4th year medical student, Plymouth University

Precise and clear
by Polly McGrath
This book is something that every single medical student NEEDS to have. It’s so well organised and covers everything you need to know. The pages are colourful and have clever colour keys, this really helps me remember it because I have a visual memory. The pages themselves are good because they are thick paper but aren’t laminated, so you can actually highlight or annotate on it yourself too. My other revisions guides have been put at the back of my bookshelf because of this guide!!
I’ll be telling all my friends to get it, cannot recommend it more!!

This book is honestly life saving if you’re a medical student. The content is concise, easy to follow and really digestible. This book somehow make med school finals seem less overwhelming.
Each section is broken down into manageable revision chunks with key clinical points in boxes and highlights the key facts. The design is super colourful and easy to follow.
If you’re looking for all your general medicine and surgery revision notes in one place this book not only helps structure your revision but also understand key concepts so they stick. I couldn’t recommend Becky’s notes enough, the best book I’ve used as a med student!!
