I use the 3 SRBs : Manual of Surgery, Clinical Methods, and Bedside Clinics. I make reference to Badoe ESP when I need to study on the subspecialties. As for General Surgery, Srb is perfect.

lomaxx:
Gross Anatomy: Snell's Clinical Anatomy By Regions

Histology : BRS Histology + Di Fiore's Atlas of Histology

Embryology : BRS Embryology

Physiology : NMS Physiology plus/minus Fox Physiology

Biochemistry : MN Charteajea Textbook of Medical Biochemistry

The books I recommend to medical students are often looked down upon. They are indeed risk adventures. Most medical students I recommend books to end up not using them. Why? Because they're not the usual books. Medical students are used to the books generations ahead of them used and prefer spending long grueling hours on huge endless textbooks. To some of them, that's the drill.

But one girl attempted to use of of the books I recommended in her Pathology exam. Her classmates were studying Almighty Robbins and Cortran Pathologic Basis of Disease. I told her not to use it. My reason: the book was too detailed and time wasting. I offered her a trio of Pathology Secrets+Pathguy.com+Some lecture notes I emailed her. The results was out last week- she topped the class with a distinction mark. They still think she's a genius.

Happy weekend.

With the recent developments on battery goods, it has made some of these logistics co to extort money from us... My recent prakas with base1 is an obvious proof that he's a bundled thief... In all my dealings it's hard for me to complain about any of them here; but this one is just way too much... If he likes let him enjoy my money cos I'm a man of too little words. Let his god judge him.

The 2006 set in my school just finished housemanship with all the strikes.
2007 set were inducted 4 months ago.

And in my opinion, they overstayed. So EBSU's case was on the extreme given the accreditation suspension.

I am an obvious victim of strikes in Nigerian University. When I began 400 level in August 2012, our Faculty slated our date of graduation for May 2015. But between then and now we've had an 8 month ASUU strike, a 2 month NMA strike which will prolong the calendar by almost a year.

I believe there is a management insensitivity in the administration of most Colleges of Medicine in this regard. We can't keep spending 8 to 10 years in school to study a 6 year course on the flippant excuse of strikes. When it comes to strikes, other students in other departments are barely affected - unless the strike is very long. In my school, the VC cut short all holidays to 2 weeks. What is the result of that? Folks that were admitted with me on 4-year courses have been shortlisted for nysc, those on 5 year courses are rounding up. And my brother that was admitted into the Faculty of Engineering when I was in 400 will be graduating with me.

My point is other departments have a way of getting their academic calendar back on track despite the strikes- but not medicine. We don't run semesters. We run stretches of sessions without holidays and our sessions lasts from 13 - 15 months on the average (18 months for preclinicals). So these strikes shouldn't be affecting us. There should be some kind of waiver. Or they should come up with strategies to avoid involvement in these strikes.

I have to mention that CMUL has made so much progress in this regard. I have friends in cmul. Between my 400 and 500, my 200l friends in cmul then are now in 400l. And all of us have had the same strikes. We keep spending 8 years in school and soon some people will get tired. The motivation factor is very important. Besides, there's more to life than spending endless years in med school.

ebsuguy:
Yes,they spent eight years because the school` accreditation was suspended,but the suspension have been lifted.

Hello Doctors,
Want to get money by referring patients to India?
Just refer any patient to India, we recieve that patient and get him admitted to the hospital like Fortis, Escorts, Primus and many more. You will get a 10% referral amount of the total cost occurred in treatment. Suppose you refer any patient to India and his total treatment cost is $5000, then you will get $500 for this at the instance.
It's just a simple philosophy and you can also earn something by just referring relevant patients.
Mail me at shikhar.db@gmail.com for further questions.

I was told by base 1 and Patrick that battery goods might take 2 weeks or more now... I have already wasted my money should have opted for free shipping ( even though not complete free) with NL post that my seller offers...
