In this book, Dr. Vishup, in a calming and reassuring voice, teaches the reader the psychological coping skills needed to deal successfully with medical school. There are chapters on a broad variety of topics including building a caring support network; maintaining a sense of individuation and identity; dealing with guilt, anger, and depression; and making full use of intuition and creativity. Above all, this is a practical book, for almost every chapter contains psychological exercises that allow the reader to put the insights Dr. Vishup offers into practice immediately.

Not worth it!!, July 13, 1999

This review is from: Coping in Medical School (Paperback)

This book is not really helpful to the average first year medical student trying to get by. It consists of lots of silly activities that you don't even have time to think about as a first year. I had to dig through this book to find anything interesting or useful about coping in medical school. It is not a practical book. If you really want help coping in medical school, take a few nights off a week and go out with friends! The book by the princeton review is much more interesting.
