browse around the frum to download goljan

goljan slides ( go with the lectures)



36 page, 100 page, lecture notes ( i dunno how good these r and i never studied from any of these---used the audio and rapid review pathology instead.. i think u shud have atleast the 36 page though for the end)

goljan addons ( a re made by a generous forum member..these are additions to rapid review made from the audio )

aim for 3 reads atleast

1. familiarize..dont try to learn

2. try to learn everything.do q bank

3. 15-20 day revision before the exam

good luck

t hanks alot s tudy ing u r very helpful to me and to everyone in this forum God bless u I wish u best of luck for ur future

IF u go thru Goljan notes of Special n General Path they r the ones going with his Audios moreover Goljan is eunf for Patho n believe me if u do him thoroughly then u will definitely need not to do nething else

for Neuro Anatomy HY is enuf n for Gross Anatomy if u look at he Clinical boxes n diagrams provided by Keith L.Moore have a quick review of HY cos Anatomy in General is not so HY in Step 1

for the Rest of them just go thru Kaplan notes n if u cant grab hold of these DVDs then there r Audios on the forum

For references u can Keep Katzung Board Review for Pharma, BRS for Physio only

then converge everything on FA if u can

For Genetics n Immunopathology the Sections in Goljan General pathology r good for Reviews they sum it all up

For 5 mnths if u r able to make ur concepts strong then u shudnt have much problems with the Qs in NMBE or USMLE

Gl with ur prep n happy studing

thanks alot for ursupport

I have golijan pathobook of highreview series is it good enuff

also how is brs anatomy or I can do it with kaplan a s I dont have high yield


  #7

i cant comment as i the format of BRS never suited my studying style.. i think it wud be too detailed though, and emphasisiless on clinical aspects.

i used patho rapid review series and none of teh other gojan sources..but do dowload atleast the 36 page for the end.
