I passed!!
I passed :)This book is by no means perfect, and there are a few spelling/grammatical typos, but I used this as my primary resource for the ABPN Epilepsy boards and I passed. Can’t ask for much more than that. The organization of the material is excellent and the questions are very relevant.For anyone else taking the boards, I would suggest you supplement this with Wyllie’s textbook, as well as the the two question books by Puneet Gupta and Pradeep Modur (Clinical Neurophysiology Q&A and Epilepsy Board Review). Of course, make sure you do the SAEs on the AAN’s website.

Definitely helpful, but needs editing – hopefully 2nd edition will address that
I have to give the editors/authors credit for putting together a much needed resource. I did very well on the exam, and I would give this book some credit for that. It is a good refresher, but unless you know the material relatively well, you will have to supplement it with another resource. I did find the plentiful questions in the book to be helpful in a way that also helped with the shortcoming mentioned above: for any question which I didn’t get correct or did not immediately feel comfortable with the topic, I went and read about somewhere else. The questions essentially revealed weaknesses in my knowledge and memory which I could then address. As noted by other reviewers, this book really does have many typos and occasional factual errors that really need to be fixed and got on my nerves. I was initially tempted to contact the author with corrections, but it got to be so many I gave up.This is a first edition, so I give the authors/editors a break on this.

It is a general overview of the content of the test and many of the questions were helpful. However, it has a lot of typos and other mistakes in it. Furthermore, I found that the quality of different chapters fluctuated significantly, some helpful and others worth skipping. This book needs to be edited again.

Great book on Epilepsy
This book is very concise and informative

It is a good book to brush up before exam
This book is concise but very informative with high yield material for boards. This is more about clinical epilepsy than EEG. It is a good book to brush up before exam. I gave it 4 stars because some MCQs lack clarity and were not well written.

Typos
This book is full of typos. I don’t even know what to trust in it.

Good luck figuring what is right from wrong in the questions
I acknowledge the chapters themselves are factual and helpful.The questions are where the problem lies. Typos and wrong answers are easy enough to figure out (and can occur in many review books). But it’s the number of poorly worded and imprecise questions that make this book unusable unless you’re willing to check every question (or just use it for the chapters themselves – and not the questions. The chapters are great!)
