3nd year medical books - a review

I hated my 3rd year of education. It was hell and I only remembered scraps from what I learned. If I was given the chance, I would not sleep and only study during my 3rd year (don't worry, I laughed at myself too). So this are some of the book that I have managed to read and would recommend.

Pathological anatomy
1. Textbook of pathology by Harsh Mohan
For a textbook written in India, it was really simple to understand with a lot of pictures (something you would rarely see in a russian textbook). I seriouly recomend this book you will use it even after you have passed your pat anat exam.

2. Robins basic pathology
I personally never read this book but most of my friend studying in Malaysia use this book

Pharmacology
Basicly the textbook given by the university is enough but if you have the time I recommend you read these books.

1. Lippincott's Ilustrated review : pharmacology
I like pictures (full stop) This books have lots of them.

2. Katzung and trevor pharmacology review
What I like about this books that it a Q&A part. A very good book.

Internal medicine
Basicly you have to eat, sleep with the book given by the university. Clinical examination is usually taught by the teachers. My experience is that it is not enough, so I recommend you read:

1. Macleod's Clinical Examination: 12th Edition
I first saw this book while doing practical in Malaysia. Most of manipal student's carry this book in the ward. I have skimmed through it and regret that have not known it sooner. Other universities in malaysia uses different book but I guess this is enough.

Surgery
Well, I can't help you here. I actually have no idea what I learned during surgery and basicly caused me to be "complimented" (sigh) during my practical in Malaysia.
