Thread: Semester 1 books that are useful...

Could someone post a list of books that you find useful when starting Med 1. I know that Anatomy and Embryo are require but how about the BRS series? Is it necessary to get these books before coming to the island? I want to use my time off this summer to get familiarize with the books and be prepare as possible when i get to aua. Any help from you guys would be appreciated.

the ross histo book.
they literally just go through it in order.

Anyone have the book list for September 2009 semester?

Hey IluvMD. The updated book list is on the AUA website.

I don't have enough posts to put the link on here but this is the navigation to get there:

AUA Website -> College of Medicine (top 1st tab) -> Current Students (top 2nd tab) -> Basic Science Component (left 1st option) -> Booklist (left 2nd option).

For Med 1, I used these books:
Baby Moore-- Anatomy
Langman's Embryo
Ross Histo
I didn't use any BRS for the first semester.

this may sound like a stupid question, but i keep seeing people referring to "big" moore and "baby" moore. what specific book are you guys inferring when talking about "big" or baby moore.

"Essential Clinical Anatomy" is the baby moore. "Clinical Oriented Anatomy" is the "big" moore. Both are written by Keith Moore (among others).
