I am doing Patho from BRS and kaplan's lecture notes.
Any input on whether Kaplan's Patho videos are really helpful or even necessary ?? They take a long time to do and the guy almost just reads off from the Lecture Notes!!
I guess they may be important for reviewing gross specimens or slides, but then does the slide/specimen review at the end of the video enough to make up for this? Webpath review is good enough as it is for reviewing slides/specimens.
Any input would be highly appreciated!!!
Thank you.

i beieve they are..when u do them u feel they arent but actually the guy helps u learn the slides and they are quite a few on the exm..once ure done with the patho videos u look at slides and actually see stuff
initially the guy duznt give u a lot of extra points but in the later chapters he adds stuff..
remember to highlight what he cals 5 star topics u wud other wise ignore eg bax genes in cell death ( not mentioned in the notes themselves)
good lucksmiling face

web path is good but the patho videos are better. if u do the former, just reserve webpath for reference

DJ, I didn't like his lectures in general but I got to agree that it does help when the Kaplan guy shows what is what on the slides. I already memorized a couple of slides hopefully cold from first 2 lectures like caseous necrosis.
