Abstract
We briefly review some of the important developments in the last decade in the theory of multiple M2-branes and AdS4/CFT3 correspondence. Taking the examples of the superconformal index, free energy on S^3 and entropy of charged black holes, we illustrate how the large N limit was studied and the correspondence was checked.
