Big Moore Or Mini Moore?

[Egyptamar]

hey everyone,
so im gonna be buying my books within the next couple days and am really confused whether to get the big or mini moore book... if students there can please help me out with suggesting which one is best... and not best just to "pass" the class but also for long term use... like for really preping for the USMLE...
thanks
you guys are great

Neither? The anatomy prof says NOT TO READ IT

And you can purchase a (very) lightly used one from a student.

But, if I had to buy one, I'd get the smaller one

Salutations "Egyptamar":

In my opinion, you should get the Mini Moore. I have been using that one and so far it has not let me down. The big one has many information that you may not have the time nor the energy to read through. There are many students here selling the big one and the library has many copies on hand in case you want to look for something in the bigger book. Good luck with your decision. Ciao.

the blue boxes in moore are good (are they still blue?).

my book had these little blue boxes with clinical correlations. those really helped.

Netter and a BRS (Board Review series) of anatomy are enough!!!

Especially with the notes that Shree gives out

If you have to get one, get the mini. The blue boxes of clinical info in it are all I looked at after first block exams. But all you really need is the BRS and a Netters atlas. Ask around about the cd version of netters when you get here, it's all I use, I never used the paper version much. I can give you my copy if you like.
