Goljan Audio Transcript
Wel the answer is easy - imagine that someone transcribed all Goljan lectures and they have been handtyped (not handwritten) in MS Word. Then they have been converted to PDF - to preserve formatting and layout...
Now you can search for a particular topic or print them - and the quality will be great! No more guessing what was the meaning of that blurred word on the scan of Goljan notes.

Step 2 Goljan Notes
::::::::::
http://rapidshare.com/files/108213754/GoljanNotesPart2.pdf.html
It is labeled part II notes and has Goljan's name on every page but I'm not sure if they're high yield for step 2. They're organized into systems instead of fields (like surgery, pediatrics...) and after some general view they're pretty much like Goljan's pathology rapid review.
What do you think?
::::::::::
I think this is a Step 1 Goljan Notes, and not a Step 2 Goljan Notes.
For information... to all USMLE takers.

What is Goljan Audio?
Anyway, a few years ago someone recorded his lectures and now it can be found everywhere if you can do a good internet search for it. These audio lectures have been very helpful to folks because he teaches pathology in an intergrated fashion by tying it in to other subjects, like micro, bichem, pharm, etc. He also teaches in way that makes the information stick, and you learn and understand the concepts in a manner that you probably have not been taught before.
These lectures are copyrighted, so they are not available for sale on amazon, bn, etc. As I said before, with a good search you can locate them. There are a total of 37 lectures. There are also other materials from Goljan around, like pdf versions of his notes that were distributed to students in his class, also even his path slides that he refers to in his lectures along with his notes on them.
However, what is for sale, that you should be able to find on amazon, bn, etc. is his book titled Rapid Review Pathology. There are older versions available, but the newest one is quite good. It has a blue cover and is part of the Rapid Review Series. It contains alot of pictures, margin notes, blue boxes with clinical correlates, as well as lots of tables, charts, and diagrams. It follows the audio lectures pretty nicely, and many folks here have found this book to be very helpful. Goljan is also a co-author of Rapid Review Biochemistry, if you want to check that out as well.

Who is Goljan or What is Goljan?
Joe> I say "what" and "is" because it seems like this guy has ascended to some sort of god among medical students, but I would love to know who he really is, find some sort of Bio., but Wikipedia and google have turned up surprisingly little.
Mark> Looks like he's Chief of Patholog at OSU. Have no idea what makes him so good since I've never heard his lectures (available on BitTorrent). I assume he's a good teacher.
Sam> His lecture notes are apparently very comprehensive but well organized, and his lectures are supposed to be very easy to follow. I think he actually holds a couple "Step 1 Review" series courses every year for 2nd year med students. I never used any of his stuff.
How do you use Goljan Audio lectures?
How do you use them? Do you listen in your car while driving? Or maybe you listen to pathology lectures in your favourite Mp3 player?
Or maybe you prefer listening to Goldjan on your computer only?
Share your experience with Goljen lectures.

Rapid Review Pathology (Rapid Review) by Prof. Dr. Goljan
This text offers a comprehensive yet concise review of pathology while discussing all of the relevant clinical information. The review chapters in the first section of the text are in a user-friendly outline format with high-yield information located in margin notes and clinical topics discussed within the outline and in clinical boxes. The second section of the book contains two 50-questions exams in USMLE format. A CD-ROM that accompanies the book contains a full-color art program, 500 board-style questions and answers with rationales for correct answers as well as all incorrect choices, and a quizzing function that gives scores at the end of the exams.
Book reviews:
After reading BRS and most of Robbins, this remains the strongest resource. Concise for its subject, it covers the important aspects of path while digging for those little, annoying details and disorders that only show up on board exams. Goljan is a true pro at teaching this, with several years at Kaplan and Oklahoma Osteopathic, and he has constantly been grilling students for more information after they have taken their exam. Master this book, and you will not only do well in path, but also have a good foothold in other subjects like pharm, micro, and biochem due to Goljan's ability to integrate several fields into path. His work has continued to help me in third year rotations, as he also discusses diagnostic tests and treatments. The accompanying Q&A CD is unfortunately poorly made, but the quality of questions is very strong. I generally read Robbins or lecture material along with this text to lay a foundation for knowledge, but come test time, you want to cut the fat, and every word here is money. Try to get the accompanying audio CDs off Ebay for reinforcement. I largely credit Goljan's materials along with Robbins Review of Path (question book) for a 98 percentile on the path shelf and a 258 on Step I. This man may have taught me more academic medicine than anyone else. I truly hope you can benefit from this text as well.

Goljan Rapid Review
Answer: The comprehensive notes that accompany the audio do have more in them than the Rapid Review book, plus there's the 100 page high-yeild, which is much more complete than the 36 page version.
Some have said that listening to the audio without the notes is enough, but from what I've seen, doing them together is more productive - especially if you go through the notes a few times before listening to the audio.

Rapid Review Pathology (Rapid Review) (Paperback)
Rapid Review Pathology reads like First Aid and is loaded with high-yield facts, BUT like First Aid it is sometimes hard to read. It is written in outline format and is more like a list of facts (like all books in the Rapid Review series). In comparison, the BRS series books are also in outline format, but the bulleted points are in complete setences making for an easier read. Therefore, students with a weaker background in pathology will have a more difficult time getting through this book than BRS.
That being said, if there were to read any book in addition to First Aid, this would be the book. It is very clinically based, it integrates info from many other subject areas, has many high-yield illustrations, and has very good clinical vignettes. The book also has wide margins where you can take notes into, which is what I'd suggest. This way you can sort of "complete" the sentences and customize the book to you're own study/reading style (this is, by the way, how you should use your First Aid).
I read many reviewers talking about the Goljan audio, but I have a feeling many readers may not know what that is. It's audio files taken from one of Dr. Goljan's lecture series. It follows his Rapid Review book 90% of the time and is great in understanding many of the facts he has listed in the book. You can find the audio from online med student forums, however they maybe copyrighted...in any case, if you can get your hands on them and listen to them using this rapid review book as "lecture notes" you'd definitely do well on the step. He has a way of explaining pathology (and all clinical medicine) like no other.
So again, if you memorize and "understand" EVERY point in this book, and every point in First Aid, you will do well on step 1.
