it is roughly the same thing in school, except that you are a doctor of teeth basically. From your post, you seem more interested in medicine, you can transfer I think in your 300L or so, also once you are through with sch, you can go for 1 year schooling after housemanship to become a full medical doctor, what's your take?

See, what do you really want? If Medicine is what you want go for it. If Dentistry is what you want go for it. You have to make a decision that'd suit you and make you happy. It's your own life. Although the training for medicine and dentistry are roughly equal but they still have their differences. If those differences matter to you then you know the best decision to make. But don't come here asking for people's opinion on your life decision. They won't live your life for you.

This mindset is very destructive.

Those that are in MBBS, how many heads do they have?

Competitive or not, if MBBS is what you want, study hard and smart and earn your place.

Don't do any course thinking that because they all work in the hospital, then they have the same relevance. We all can't be doctors- yes but save your future the imminent regret of not trying or at least trying hard enough when you at least had the chance.

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.

They're all gud textbooks. Although I have little or no experience in this area, I will advise u to wait till u start ur classes. U may get the text recommendations from ur professors in school..Some anatomy textbooks use a regional approach while others use a systemic approach.. U can also peruse through some of the medical textbooks and find out which one works well for u..Haven't you wondered why some students recommended gray's and some others recommended keith moore? It's because they see things in different perspective...Jux get the one dat suits you well and don't jux hurry to buy any textbook. Thanks.
