Rating: - Excellent condensation of material.
My opinion is that the first few chapters of the big Robbins are a must read. There is no way around it. But after that, Companion Robbins will save you a lot of time in medical school pathology. It is too much and too wordy to study this for USMLE.
I think if you only read Robbins companion book you will miss too much for medical school pathology. There simply is not enough time to just sit down and read the entire big Robbins. So, read Companion Robbins, learn all of tables and ... Read More
Rating: - Great Book
The best part about the "Pocket Robbins" is its concise explanation of just about everything that the "big Robbins" says. I have found that one of the most important decisions I make in medical school is how I focus my time. I can usually read through the pocket robbins in about half the time as the big robbins.

I love this pocket edition of Robbins. I use it to look up items when I am studying the week before exams. Everything high yield is in here and the index is great. I travel with this little thing, it lives on my desktop...it's the only book on my desktop. Cross-reference with Big Robbins, especially for photos.
Rating: - Life saver
The small Robbins pulled me through my pathology. There is no time to read the big Robbins. I used it to prepare Step1 and i am glad that i use it.
Rating: - Baby Robbins
There is no way around it. You must read this book, and review it thoroughly. If you haven't time to read the Papa or Mama Robbins and review with the baby, then just read the baby. You may utilise the Papa or Mama for its pictures otherwise. This is the only way you'll ever come to understanding pathology; I've finally come to realise it. Much easier to grasp the pathophysiology than in the BRS.
