I am in systems path 1 right now and I was reading my Robins book on neurological disorders. Going through it, they describe what feels like hundreds of disorders just involving the nervous system. Then I went through the class notes to see which conditions are going to be covered, and it is only about 30 that we need to know for the test. Normally I don't complain that I don't have enough to learn but it just seems like there is so much that we aren't covering. Is that how pathology classes are? Is the professor just trying to teach us stuff that will are most likely to encounter clinically and some diseases just aren't important to know? Or should we be learning every one of those conditions in the book and my professor is just under doing it?
