Has anyone used this course? I am thinking of a competitive specialty and realllly would love a 230+, will something like this help? I am not able to do the 7 week in person course.
Thanks
 
Do NOT do their online course.

I was given a demo disc so I thought I'd check it out. I thought it was crap, honestly. Path was horrendous imo, and for everything there was zero explanation, just reading off the slides.
 
I agree.

The online program is a waste. They don't have Dr. G teaching the Path part, which is a bummer
 
Goljan teaches at Falcon, but he doesn't teach all of Pathology. I have a friend that went there and he said that Goljan only had a few hours. The difference between Falcon and Kaplan is like the difference between PR and Kaplan when preparing for the MCAT. Once again, Kaplan is about preparing you to take the test and Falcon is about going over the material. So if you are weaker with material and a solid test taker, take Falcon. If you are fine studying material on your own and need help taking tests, take Kaplan. If you have trouble with both, figure out which area you need more help with.
 
Do you really wanna trust these people with your boards studying?

I have all the Goljan stuff from his lectures, PM me if you are interested. It's about 1.5 gigs of audio from his 5 day path lecture + hy 36 and hy 100, his path notes (around 600 pages), and his slides (67 images).
 
I am posting everywhere I can, my experience with the online course is really bad. The software is glitchy and the books are low quality. It is a waste of money and time, a lot of money and time.
