is there REALLY a need to bring EVERYTHING in the worls, which essentially say the SAME damn thing, but in a different way.....
all you really need are: palm and a few "books"....less is more!!
1) epocretes (sp?): on you palm
2) hopkins abx guide on palm OR pharmacopeia (something having to do w/ drugs)
3) the harvard/mass gen. book (you know, the one with the blue cover.....can't think of it right now)...to help with admits and general management of pt
4) diagnosaurus (great for differntials and stuff....it's FREE
...and its on your palm....but you can get away w/ it if you have the upgraded epocretes)
5) Ferri's or some other pocketbook of your choice....JUST as backup AND something you can read before the resident/attending starts pimping on you
6) and of course, the stethescope
Basically, you want something for the admissions, management, pharmacology aspects, and something "extra" for the pimping stuff...True?
