honestly i think that there are way toooo much... the more concise the materials you use(with preservation of the integrity of subjects) the easier, faster, fruitful it will be for you to revise and "retain: the High Yield notes from each subject...

i am using Kaplan with BRS Beh sc.--HY Neuro--Pharmacards Pharma--BRS Bio--BRS Path.

the books u mentioned are awesome , but not designed for the usmle(that is only "my" opinion.... u gotta judge it for yourself..

good luck

You'll probably finish reading those books by the end of year 2005, stick to kaplan only and add BRS or Goljan for pathology, and tons of MCQ's thats all you need

Check this site tania: http://www.medicalstudent.com/ you'll find detail links for histo, path, radiology and many other subjects, don't forget to visit the webpath website (listed under the pathology links) it is really great and also contains questions,

Good luck grin
