yasmeen, you got wrong book - 'Most Common in Pathology' definitely isn't best book by Goljan for the USMLE step 1.
Recommended books by Goljan are 'Rapid Review: Pathology', 2004 (in print) or 'STARS Pathology Review', 1998 (out of print).
There are also some notes by Goljan, which never were publicly available, so I can't comment on them.
'Fisrt Aid' always rates 'BRS Pathology', 2005, higher than 'Rapid Review: Pathology' or 'STARS Pathology Review'.
hghooka, 'Robbins and Cotran Review of Pathology', 2004, isn't as large as you think, it's only 432 pages ('BRS Pathology' is 512 pages and 'Rapid Review: Pathology' is 480 pages), it only implies that you already have good background in pathology, because it contains highest quality, but difficult case-based MCQs.

Dr.P53

do you have any ideas how long dose it take to study Rapid reveiws along with the Goljan audios?

and one more thing, my exam would be on July 20th do you suggest that i study this despite of the short period of time is left?

thanks

I really can't say how long will it take for you to finish them, because I don't know how many pages of 'rapid review: pathology' will you read and how many lectures will you listen per day; I think that Goljan audio is very time-consuming.
