I found this book exceptionally helpful early in my fourth year even though almost 50% of it was no longer relevant to me. Nervous for interviews? This book not only helped me think about the important aspects I want to portray about myself, but more importantly, the things I want to find out about the program. And after skimming through the earlier parts about choosing a specialty and applying to away rotations, I definitely think it would have been a great guide in third year. It's like having someone hold your hand and tell you what to do amid this whole business of "planning for your future". Yes, some of it is common sense, but it's some of it certainly isn't!

at the time i purchased it, it was the only book that was made for the 2014 match and released before the match opened. I am using it now and find it very helpful.
