Do you guys recommend looking at Goljan pictures or Webpath pictures as a last minute thing?

Thanks

Honestly, I don't know that you'll get any definite answer. If it were me I would base my decision off of which resource I had not seen yet. I would look at images you're unsure of or always had difficulty interpreting. That's most likely to give you the best return on your investment.

Just my $0.02.

the robbins atlas looks cool too, but webpath just seems too awesome in terms of navigation (i.e. i can webpath on my phone while im in bed)...the big issue im debating (the thing is we have a histopath slide database + random slides) is to use my schools stuff or just use webpath (since it looks comprehensive and hits the high yield pictures)

I think it's important to say that out of all the images on my particular exam I had only seen one previously. It wasn't the same image, obviously, but very similar. All of my other images were very unique and were of things that I wasn't expecting to see at all. I'm not sure that browsing Goljan or WebPath the night before would have helped me in the slightest, but that was just for my exam, and that isn't to say that it won't help someone else.

I was very surprised with the unique images (and the way they use them to test your knowledge) that appeared on my exam.

Were you able to interpret them or did they just baffle you completely?

I think I was able to interpret them. My score came out okay.

It was just things I hadn't seen before and I used both Goljan and WebPath extensively. I think the best preparation is just solid studying and the ability to think on your feet and think beyond the image itself. I didn't say to myself, "oh, wow, this looks a lot like such and such image I saw". It was more like, "oh, wow, that's... cool?"
