 Unbeatable Pathology review...IF you give yourself the time. July 17, 2010
RG
My pathology course was taught by the guys who WROTE BRS (the major competitor for this book), so my entire path knowledge come February was just excerpts from BRS. Not nearly enough to do well. Around March I obtained the Goljan lectures that have been heavily torrented online. These lectures were FANTASTIC and explained things in detail so I could understand the pathology and underlying mechanisms, explained diagnostic techniques, and even discussed treatments. He also tied things into physiology, pharmacology and biochemistry, so I felt like my understanding was truly integrated. Keep in mind the lectures, though fantastic, did not encompass the entire scope of the course. This made me decide to purchase the book, and with time being short, just paid the high markup at my school bookstore to have it immediately.
To keep it short, his book was more of the same goodness I had already experienced. However, he clearly had more information, very good images and access to a question bank online. While there were some bugs with the delivery system, the questions were very good. I now had a much better grasp of the underlying causes and mechanisms of disease rather than memorizing bullet points, and saw conditions I had not even heard of before. Having taken the time to read much of the book, I felt better prepared to take the Step 1, and ended up with a 241. Next to First Aid and a good QBank, I think this book is a must-have for those serious about scoring highly.

 A real review book May 11, 2010
Maged Helmy A. Eldin (Lawrence, Ks)
If you have already studied pathology before and you are looking for a book that prepare you for an exam, this book is a good one. However, do not use it if you want to study for the first time (no discussion). Good book for USMLE preparation
