What books are useful in mastering path for blocks and/or Step 1? I've been told Robbins is the way to go, anything else?

Also for the other third semester classes are the Kaplan books sufficient or should I look into getting additional materials?

Thanks

Robbins is too much - I never even opened mine so if you are looking to buy a copy brand new, hit me up. Goljan rapid review is to the point and easily understood. Robbins is awesome if and when you become a pathologist - it does have plenty of nice pics though.

If you already have big Robbins, it has a lot of ** in it for PhD's so just stick to the pictures and their descriptions, period. That's what's clinical. Goljan's book is the way to go, it's so relevant I wish I had had it earlier. Micro the Kaplan book is golden. Other subjects I think the Ppts are good enough, if you need extra qns for Psych, the BRS or High Yield are fine. Do NOT use Kaplan for Patho!
