BRS physio or Kapllan Physio?

Hi..I am currrently incorporating both but its too time consuming and i want to stick to one source. Do you guys recommen kaplan or brs for physio? I cant seem to decide..since kaplan seems too much and BRS although sufficient does not give you a very holistic pathophysiology...In my opinoin..but its short enough to grasp.
Will appreiate any input
Thanks
Salman

Kaplan physio is better than BRS ?

Kaplan is much better if you want to go with single source because you will cover everything somewhere in Pathology ,Biochemistry,or in Physiology.This is only one person's opinion.I didn't find any book which is complete in everyway.But,since Kaplan specially designed its lectures ( notes) and everything according to usmle style ,it makes sense that at least you will be safer side if you use Kaplan's Book.But,on the other hand if you are thinking about using only few books from Kaplan,few BRS,few some other sources,it is little complicated! If you are fresh student then,you don't have to be very picky,but if you have some gap or you are not in touch with study for long time then, you don't have to take chance! Follow Kaplan as a guide and study with more than one book ( if you need ) until you feel confident in solving Questions ( Q Bank,Rapid Review and BSS ).Revise subjects at least 3 times,find a friend who can share study plans and discuss problems with you !!
