I think a good study tip other than "JUST STUDYING" would be to do practice questions. Do every practice question your lecturer may post. If they don't have any, Guyton has great practice questions as does BRS. It's hard to fit them in, when you hardly have time to study, but doing questions is a form of studying when you learn why you got the answer wrong and what you need to focus more in. Thanks for the great video though! :)
I have to disagree with this author too. Guyton is a great book and the minutiae does matter. If there is one class you are going to be thorough with in med school, it should be physiology.
Exactly! I personally love to read Guyton because it has by far the best explanations that I think we need to understand compared to Berne&Levy or Ganong's which I also both used. Our consultant always told us that Physiology is the hypothalamus of medicine so we need to invest our time on it rather than just memorize the whole thing.
Yes nowadays students just focus on passing exams and achieving degrees An example of that could be university of khartoum's past students and current ones 💔
Years in the future, Doc Ossareh is still sharing the golden eggs of techniques to succeed in medical school. Medium text with lecture Notes and use the BRS/Rapid Review for being certain you know all your high-yield.
Sadly the medical path is a major competitive journey amongst students.....truth! Thankyou for giving us all insight of hiw you are surviving!! Buckets and buckets full of gratitude :)))) Thankyou.....i take in everything you say and pass on the golden nuggets to my colleagues! For at the end of the day one is only in competition with itself and not each other!!! Blessings and much love in Jesus Christ
"What are you doing Guyton?" That was classic! And lightning didn't strike you after saying that! Nor me for laughing. Hall actually did an interview where he said how Guyton made him cut his verbiage by half for his 9th edition additions. It's Guytons shoulders we're standing on... Dude, thanks for these videos. This is the first I've seen, and I'll be checking out the others, and passing them on to fellow students. On the subject of videos, do you have a recommendation on a video series for Physio? And PathoPhysio? Please say you do. Thanks again, doc!
Started with Guyton and then I turned to Vander! I think I liked the second one more except of endocrine! Here in Greece the university gives us the textbooks for free every semester so I had the chance to study every system from a different textbook!
You make an excellent point I try to always remind others about; the brief summary books like the BRS physiology books won’t make sense unless you already understand the material. Those skinny books are great for review, but not as your starting point. Thanks for what you do.
So you basically don't read Guyton that much? I don't know about you, but my Physiology course is strictly based on Guyton. And yes I have to pretty much learn the entire book, the more the better cuz our exams are brutal. And what I hate about it is that exam is pretty much based on questions that trigger one sentence in each chapter that if you didn't memorise well, it will most likely cost you passing the exam. Also, I thought you were gonna give some advice on learning the subject not just showing books you learned from :P
I wouldn't buy a complete set from one company. If you notice in my videos, I use different companies for different courses. Speak to the upperclassmen and see what they are recommending.
I'm recently hearing about BRS physiology. Why haven't I heard of BRS before!!!! I'm in the end of my 1st year now and all these time I have studied from Guyton and guide books!! Now, I feel like I read nothing cause Guyton is sooo huge that its impossible to master it. I need to master BRS with the remaining time I have left. :'(
Thank you so much for this and your other videos, it's really really helped me a lot , I was lost before I started watching your videos in channel and I subscribed too. I hope you will make new videos and thank you again doctor. I wish for you the best and your family too.
Elena KK interesting points ,if anyone else wants to learn about how to study physiology in medical school try Grathaw Simple Anatomy Expert(Have a quick look on google ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it. ·
can u please do a video on being an effective student with limited about time that med students have. like how to get chores done quickly so u have more time to study/rest.
at our school we have a book that is a litle more in detail than guyton, the teachers tell us that guyton is stupid, and we are told to study from our book ... sorry my english i`m romanian ... and we study physiology for 1 and a half year and anatomy for 2 years ...
I'm going to college next year and I have a basic idea of what I want to study so I thought I'd get some working knowledge beforehand. This was very helpful. Also, most of the books are actually downloadable, that's something every one should look into because it's kinda pointless to buy $100+ books.
I will go with guyton and hall. People in India say it is very informative and easy to understand. We can build really nice concepts from it and later go for ganong or costanzo for PG preparation.
+ramanjot singh I love this video, especially the tips about learning physiology . Another resource I also found useful for human anatomy and physiology course was Corbandy Simple Physiology Crusher - if anyone is interested search on google
Hi am a med student in egypt and the textbooks here are so messed up and professors don't teach us correctly so i want to know what do u study in ur first 2 years of med school and what recommended textbooks for each. Thank you so much
the prob is that our education lacks basis and coordination...for example in physiology they teach us the effect of every center in the Motor areas in the brain on stretch reflex without explaining what's stretch reflex and many many other things like that... am gonna be honest with u, am in 2nd year now and i got A+ the first year and all i still remember right now and understand doesn't proceed more than 10% from total......that's rly disappointing! that's why i want to do things right i want to understand every single word in the textbook not to memorize it without understanding... did u figure something out that could help u be better or help u understand more?
Me too, i've been thinking about buying some books like Costanzo in Physio,Lippincott's review in Bio-Chem, Ross and Pawlina in Histo and Grey's anatomy as well as FA for USMLE step 1...i think ill go with these books till 3rd year and then ill see what other books should i get. it's rly good to know that there's someone thinking like me and that am not from outer space cuz whenever i speak to a colleague about this they make me feel like an idiot or they say: ohh not now or not interested and it rly makes me feel rly bad! which year are u in?
***** i rly dunno what to say! u got me speechless cuz that thing rly got me so depressed the past few weeks and i couldn't even study well for the exams and i wanted some1 to talk to and tell him what i rly feel and could help me out even in simplest words just "inspirational and motivational" and here u r giving me that push that i needed all that time....THANK YOU SO SO MUCH!! i've copied every single word u wrote on a paper so that whenever i get depressed or tired i take a look at it! Thank you for everything "motivation and the link for illustrating vids" and i wish u all the best in ur life ^_^
I don't think Guyton is a deep book. I study medicine but I like investigation and molecular biology, so I used Ganong's textbook. It all depends on how much you like, right now I'm seeing pathophysiology and I use books for postgraduate and publications of pubmed and it's perfect because they describe everything C=
Would you suggest doing your pre-reads the morning of lecture using the constanzo physio book? btw, I LOVE YOUUUU lol, you are such a big help and I am currently going through all of your vids.
I remember buying Gayton for physio when I was in 1st year! Lol! I had no idea what to do with it and ended up not opening it! I only studied my professor's notes XD
I'm in my second year doing sports studies, I have an exam in over 2 weeks and I hate physiology! I don't understand it at all, it's litterally foreign to me. Any tips?!
@DocOssareh Ive been finding your tips very useful. I am 2 months into medical school in Poland, we are using guyton and the same txtbooks as american schools. However your videos say to use BRS ... now how do you actually use BRS.. doyou make notes in it while studying etc? or is it just a read through ?
I start phase 1 of mbbs soon. I know in America it is called M.D but for phase 1 mbbs (based on the medical council of india curriculum) we study anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, IT and community medicine. Guyton is recommended by the medical school but there's no mention of constanzo. DocOssareh, do you think the physiology from M.D and that of mbbs is similar? I really rate your comments but I would like to choose the best route for studying.
I have read Guyton and hall but i think it is not a good book, you need alot of external resources and help to understand what it want to explain. Explanation of diagrams and pictures are very bad, it is like writtten for someone who knows physiology already.
Do you study PBL system ? if you do please talk about the system and the way that u study and mange ur time ..it's my first year in medicine in this system and it is a new system in my collage so all the student are suffering bcz every thing dont go in a right way any way please just talk about the way u manage ur time thank u so much for ur great videos
I want to ask a question really quick even though its not about the subject. I am want to be a doctor and go to medical school but I haven't been in US all my life so my mom and dad says it will be too hard for me since i wasn't here in high school and haven't taken most of the science classes, I am in a community college right now, even though its a long way I might go for it. Any suggestions ?
Hi i'm from India I have two edition of guyton and hall one is of 2012 edition which is big whereas the another one is second South Asian edition. From which book should I study ??
I think you are right totally, i have been using for several topic , now i think it is hard on me to remember …….like i am lost between gyton’s pages…….
Learning Physiology is interesting because it deal with activities going on in our own body.So when ever a student studies suppose heart first of all count your heart rate .Feel when It fluctuates so on . Thank you Prof. Sushma gupta
Hello! I am an undergrad and I was wondering if it would alright if I took physiology before I take anatomy. I have a basic knowledge of anatomy from my EMT-B training.
Margarida de Mello Aires is the best book of phisiology. Is far better than Guyton & Hall. It's a Brazilian Book, and I've found it in spanish, don't kno if it's in english too.
The best thing is to listen to Dr.Najeeb
Dude, who has time! LOL.
@@jayw8726 Agreed, but you master the topic
@@sreekarreddy9623 Depends bro. To each their own. For me, I didn't like his dragged style of teaching with alot of repetition.
@@jayw8726 ikr there's too much to listen to lectures.. ive always been a book guy but damn i just cant keep it moving with physiology
@W SMYTHE BATES and he is a scammer, be careful

what's the difference between using First Aid as your review book for each class vs. using BRS or the "made ridiculously easy" review books?
Costanzo wrote the BRS actually
Costanzo physiology is great. I feel that it's better than Guyton. She explains stuff so well.
Thanks for the whole series of best books

You are right i’m studying Guyton☹️
Sir I think for 1st year students Ganongs is enough. Guyten and Hall seems vry difficult for me
Difficult doesn't mean impossible but it just means to work and study harder & smarter.
I have read Guyton and hall but i think it is not a good book, you need alot of external resources and help to understand what it want to explain. Explanation of diagrams and pictures are very bad, it is like writtten for someone who knows physiology already.
Agreed. Ganong is much better for clinical related physiology.
What are those tiny yellow and blue papers?
you guys dont read sherwood?
Hey, you didn't speak about the book "Clinical physiology Made Easy". Should I buy this book in addition to the rest of the books?
Where can I get its full lectures of chapters?
1080p in 2012 thats awesome
Plz make new videos, Sir.
its ,,,a really great help for me thank u sir..
Name the author of book other than BRS n guyton n hall???
Do you study PBL system ?

I study with PBL. his advice does NOT work at all with that system.
In my country costanzo is about 3 times more expensive than guyton.
what do you think about the text book : Medical physiology by Boron???
Hi i'm from India I have two edition of guyton and hall one is of 2012 edition which is big whereas the another one is second South Asian edition. From which book should I study ??
Can we use kaplan physiology in medical school?
I think you are right totally, i have been using for several topic , now i think it is hard on me to remember …….like i am lost between gyton’s pages…….
compare to gauton, is Sherwood textbook a good reference ?

Sushma Gupta mam please suggest which can be good for mbbs and pg entrance from below
Ganong, gk pal, costanzo
which books should we prefer for biochemistry? ?
:( I thought you were going to tell us really how to study physiology
do you recommend creating condensed notes for physic?

thankyou......for costanza it was totally new for me,,,but how to buy it from mp...
if its possible than from where
i need this book in soft ...if anyone have give me plzz
This is insane, my exams are based on Boron Medical Physiology, wich is much more detailed than Guyton.
is physical therapy the same, because i heard it is. and I wouldnt want to purchace the books if its not the same material
Nooo. Physiology is related to the inner functions of different parts of the body. Physical therapy is something else entirely.
Margarida de Mello Aires is the best book of phisiology. Is far better than Guyton & Hall. It's a Brazilian Book, and I've found it in spanish, don't kno if it's in english too.
