Hello guys, So I'm taking CS at the end of September and I have the 5th edition of FA that I got from a friend. I'm just wondering if I should buy the 6th edition? Are there any significant changes that would make it worth the purchase. I was also contemplating buying a 30 day World...

So I already bought first aid, uworld, pathoma, and sketchy. I also downloaded Zanki. Has anyone heard of usmle rx? What about other resources?

Ok, I have done a lot of research on this to determine what counts and what doesn't for both clinical experience an so medically-related volunteering. I have seen some very mixed opinions on whether caregiving counts as clinical. I work in a nursing home alongside CNAs and we functionally do the...

I am selling the book on ebay 2018 edition/FM Boards. Very useful for the exam.

I love all aspects of the medical field, but I feel like I would enjoy physical therapy the most because it allows me to have a family and get to spend time with them more than say emergency medicine or surgery. The only thing I think I wouldn't like is the fact that I wouldn't have the...
