Oh ok, wish I could've accelerated, school said I would be fine if I accelerated but they had never accelerated anyone so they didn't want to start. They accelerated a year 10 guy this year :| Only in one subject though
What are you doing?

you'll get there, if you're determined, study hard, and are prepared to sacrifice.

I admire your determination aussienerd, and I'm sure you'll get there in the end. Remember, nothing that's worth doing is easy. I've bought very few textbooks and those that I have, I've sold. So this is about a quarter of what we've been expected to refer to over the years.

I don't know if it's an appropriate level of detail for med students, but I found Sherwood's physiology book to be really good and actually regret selling it now. Agree with the comments about Rang and Dale--even as a pharm student I only used it a handful of times throughout the 3 semesters of pharmacology. It's a good book, but it just never got used.

Do you med guys not use TGs? I'm kinda surprised.

Torrents are the way to go!
haha might be a bit shifty...
but saves you so much money
pathology for instance - robbins basic path is so easy to find on the net, complement with a $4 path text book from the UNSW book sale and im set!
lol

actually..the unsw book sale is pretty good for all kinds of medicine books, i got histo, path, anat/physio, pharm and even a bunch of clinical nursing books for a friend and knox biology, all only like $4-$8 each!

Some books are worth buying however having 2000 maths books is extremely good for refrence.
