No, It is not. I would honestly go with pathoma. Much shorter to get through. You don't even need to read the book that comes with the program. 90% of the material is in his videos. I used it instead of goljan and did well in pathology. Goljan is just too long and its hard to retain. Pathoma really teaches you what you ned to know in a concise form that you can remember.

i was also feeling the same after doing kaplan's pathology review. i shifted to pathoma, and i have to say its much better and very easy to understand and retain. u can find the videos on the internet, but i have to warn u it is illegal, as its on torrent sites. if you have no problem with that, u can download them, because only book is not enough, alot of stuff in in the videos.

Hello there, I didn't take the exam yet, but I finished my Patho from Goljan

Anyone who just began studying, I WOULD ALWAYS recommend Goljan

YET

In your case, you are just way ahead, way beyond needing it

In my simple opinion, you don't need Goljan in your specific situation

Good Luck
