Just to let you know, I didn't buy a single book this year and got through everything just fine.....the notes they give are usually sufficient. I would buy cheap board review books as a supplement instead of buying the expensive text book. A lot of people will tell you to buy this or buy that.........but honestly, unless u like to learn from the textbook, it's not worth it. so i say drink and smoke your money away.........wizzo said:
oh yeah, I never bought any tools for our clinical course either, i just used my friend's stuff whenever I needed it, that saved another 6-800 dollars also.
If you like to see people get blasted for not answering questions correctly you're going to absolutely love your clinical rotations. Although, I can promise you you'll be on the receiving end of a few of those "blastings" regardless of how smart you may think you are. The luxery of sitting in the back and keeping your mouth shut won't be afforded to you. You'll get called out in front of nurses and other students. Hopefully none of your fellow medical students will laugh at you if you don't answer correctly because that would truly be a "malignant" character trait.
