Terrific book!
New version of the path BRS is terrific. Distills the essentials of pathology into a concise, easy-to-read book, with test yourself questions & explanations at the end of each chapter.

<br />Think it's best used if read before & after your course materials (lectures handouts, Robbins, etc). But having this book will ensure you are learning what you must know about pathology. Plus, it will then serve as a great refresher when studying for Step 1.

Excellent for fast review
This book is a no nonsense review of path. Sure it lacks illustrations, but it's well organized and covers the high yield stuff for step I.

High yield pathology review
This is an excellent review for both a pathology course and for studying for USMLE Step I. Its main weakness is that it doesn't include very many images, so you need an atlas of some sort as a companion. I used an image bank my school provided and this book alone to study for pathology on Step I, and I did extremely well.
