Has anyone been using this book? I went through a couple of chapters through this book and I really like it but it needs a bit of time committment. Anyone use this for the boards and like it? Can anyone tell me if its worth my time going through it?? Thanks!!

I think the book is really great. I've been using it through out my studying. I would totally reccommend it.

Thanks for your input, Red. I think I'll continue using this book - I really like the fact that it brings path, pharm and micro together in one book. I wonder why more people aren't using it.

pathophys for the b&w is my favorite book. I just can't figure out where to integrate it into my studying - are you using it with phys or path, or do you have days set aside to just look over pathophys?

I actually try to do a couple of hours of reading from boards and wards every morning. I think by doing BRS path we'll get most of the path we need to know, but this book just presents the material in a different fashion and I'm able to recall facts more from here than from BRS. Plus I figured, if after doing Qbank, I find out that I'm particularly weak in any one organ system, this book would help out as well. I just posted my original question about this book because I haven't heard of a lot of people using it and I didn't want to waste a lot of time if its not something thats going to help me out. But the more I think about it, I think we should just use the books that work best for us and stick with it.
