Customer Reviews

Great for Systems Courses

This book is incredibly helpful in learning the systems courses in medical school as it is arranged in such a fashion. Not only is it great because of how it helps as a memory tool, but the information is on target even more so then First Aid in my opinion. My advice is to get this book before you go through your systems courses and add to the pictures as you go along. Then you have a lot of the information for a disease right there in one picture and when boards come around you can refer back to it.

Great Memory Jogger

This book is in no way intended to teach you all you have to know for the boards, but the silly drawings are an awesome way to remember the myriad of facts that go along with each disorder. I used BRS Path to pick up additional facts and then added to the drawings to incorporate in those concepts. Worked great and still does! I own the entire series and find them incredibly useful. I might as well face it -- I don't have the time or inclination to be as creative as Laurie, so props to her for making this all available to us!

Visual Mnemonics in Path

I love all the Visual Mnemonics books by Laurie Marbas. The Path book has especially good ways for remembering all of the lung & heart pathologies. These books have changed the way I study and have helped by grade significantly. They have also saved me time b/c memorizing doesn't take as much time anymore.

Super for Step 1

I just finished using this book for Step 1 and it was very helpful in recalling quick facts when I was taking the test. I also used the micro and pharm last fall and for Step 1 and thought that they were well worth the money.

Fast and quick!

This book was extremely easy to follow and remember. It was very helpful for my last exam. I would recommend it to everyone!The pictures are humorous and the text is on the opposite page with room to make your own notes. Perfect for the way I study. You would be missing out if you did not buy this book for Pathology. The micro and pharm book are great also.
