Hi all,
Does anyone have any spare notes from your patho course you would be willing to send me? In addition to my class notes, lecture recordings, the book, youtube, and my A&P books, I need as many supplemental resources as I can for this course.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

To be honest, if you already have all those things, I do not think you will need any other supplementary material, especially considering you have the lectures from your instructor recorded. Although pathophysiology is probably a universal subject, each individual instructor will expect different things and put more focus on some things than others. While I don't think notes from someone else will hurt, the notes you take in your class will probably be more geared towards what exactly you will be tested on. I took that class last quarter at my school, and it was challenging, but I scored an A. I just used the notes I took in class and studied off them and my book. I kind of think you would be better off focusing on studying with what you have and not worried about getting a bunch of different resources. I would say see how the class goes and if you start to struggle with something in particular, and none of the resources you've listed here have helped you master it, then post a question about it and receive extra notes/resources then. I'm sure there will be tons of people with lots of advice to help once you get stuck, but getting a whole course works of notes I think will just overwhelm you than help you. Good luck :) It really is an interesting class

Most text books have online resources that the publisher posts. Maybe look online as my text books all have chapter key points posted in the online resources which are quite helpful if you need some extra notes.

When I took patho last semester I would use this great website https://evolve.elsevier.com/ and all you have to do is search the book you're using and register. Hopefully it's free for you as it was for me. I would use this website every time before a test and I would get 90's+ on every test. They would have matching, animated videos, critical thinking questions, and a practice test. The book I bought also came with a study guide book- huge help also. They had chapter summaries and really condensed what was in the book and only had the very important information (as well as another practice test at the end of each chapter).
