Do you study for your path class primarily by reading your lecture notes/handouts? Do your exams only test you on material covered in your notes?
Do you think BRS or Goljan Pathology review books teach you better than your handouts do?
The reason I'm asking is that in the preface to BRS Pathology, the author recommends not using BRS as the primary source for path. However, I am doing just that because my school's path handouts are mediocre, and they leave out chunks of info. At the same time, reading Big Robbins is just overkill for the boards. I am reading not for detail, but rather general overview.
