Not much , just selective pages, topics except ... I like to read fr genetics related chpts section & in betwen re genetic 2 chpt to b fr 2007 , also pharm fr 2007 since new drugs etc .. not want to write on 2004 .. might get messy , that's all are maj , but few minor extra in new & old too , so.....
but if u read with her .. will b good or just browse both edition done by some fm member to mark the page need to add in fr 2007 .. like in biochem .. clinical case box in 2007 , etc all subj too , just check quick , NO idea re 2008 , since not see them yet .

Hope it helps .

Hi ... smarty ........... we all in our read still ........... I also have my read stop & go a su know , so keep it up buddy , but i am more persistant this few months , since was getting lots of cold this afll, winter sad

BIOCHEM ............. pl ...... do as u raed ur novel favorite one .......... u will like it , do it without fear so u will get , understand it fast without tension .
But it gives u in bioch , more u raed , more repeating.. u find more meaning, like new info , more u know there after .. GL

hi allsmiling face looks like everyone is studying good...meningioma u ased about difference in 2004 2007 edition of kaplan...sorry man have no idea about it..i have the 2007 set ..u shud compare ur set with ur frnd's i guess,or take Shweee's advice. u asked what i'll b doing next so it all depends what my state of mind will b after completeing biochem..if brain cells will be overloaded i will go for behavoral science or physio.if not then will continue genetics .u done with histo??

shweee thanks fr ur wishes ...yes i had a nice weekend..wasted alot of time but i guess it was necessary.

anyways my progress is that i've read biochem till TCA cycle today will finish gluconeogenesis etc..and lipid synthesis.along with dvds.this biochem might eat up 2 3 more days of my schedule..agggghhhhhhhh!!shaking head
