path is kinda my weak point right now. i only have time to do either NMS or BSS. which one would you guys recommend ?
 
if path is your weak point i would skip nms and the other and opt for robbin's path review. the questions are excellent and the explanations have great teaching points. helped me a bunch.
 
thanks for the response souljah. a quick follow-up to my question : did you think the robbins questions was comprehensive enough to cover all path and pathophys needed on step1?
 
yes. robbins Q book covers every chapter in the big robbins. it hits all the high points either as a direct question or through explanations of wrong answers.

great book.

later

yes, i thought it covered just about everything. not only did it cover the major areas of path that are generally covered well in most sources i.e. cardiac, liver, etc - but it also covered areas that i felt weren't covered well in other sources i.e skin, musculoskeletal, breast, lung, etc.
