Useful Support Materials

I'm studying for our first Pharm quiz right now (anybody else blown away by how much, how fast?) and found myself reaching for one of the most useful books I've used throughout all of my biology courses. I thought I'd post it in case anybody else thought it might be helpful.

I thought perhaps we could add to the comments section any other materials that anybody finds helpful.

Here are my first two:

1) Dictionary of Word Roots and Combining Forms by Donald Borrer - I have found this book to be invaluable and it's a small book in which one can quickly find the information.

2) Stedman's Medical Dictionary - I'm using an older edition which I got for $20 off of Half.com.

Welcome Cohort III

If you are anything like me, you are excitedly anticipating the beginning of our program on January 28th. I am carefully going over everything that needs to be turned in by the deadlines, making sure I have my books, and trying to relax as much possible knowing it will be my last chance for at least a year!

I’ve created this website to help facilitate deadlines, information distribution, and provide a resource for future cohort generations. This site can also provide a forum to discuss issues that we are having with the program and be a resource for our Student Representative to the Faculty and our Ombudsman for collecting and distributing information. I also anticipate hosting polls and voting on this website.

If any of you have questions or suggestion, please let me know as I am happy to receive suggestions and help out where I can.
