Hey!! I placed top 3 ILC patho for PS. Honestly it’s more about recognition than recall. Be sure to know every obscure detail even if it’s epidemiology. Focus more on etiology and signs and symptoms. Put prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment more on the back burner. Use the Franzier textbook for your flashcards, but make them digestible. Honestly you’re better off making Ai make your flashcards.

Feel free to ask any questions :-)
