      I paid for a new one but I got a used one that had been written in. Also, it's not really a study guide but more of a work book.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Helped me ace my final!
      Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2022

      I strongly recommend this study guide to anyone who needs to understand and apply the pathophysiology in a final exam. The original book was the textbook for my pathophysiology course- it is over 1000 pages and overwhelming.
      This study guide broke down the important aspects of each chapter into very doable practice questions. The answer guide at the back has perforations - so I tore mine out and it made it so much easier to follow along and study with this guide.

      If you are struggling to learn/memorize/understand/apply all the pathophysiology concepts-I strongly suggest using this study guide. It really helped me get through my exam - and I am not a good test taker.

      Good luck in your studies!

      This is helpful in getting me ready for exams. I fill it in and then study it with my other notes and resources before exams. The activities can be fun (crossword puzzle) or simple fill in the blank. I think I have found 1 or 2 errors that do not match up to the reading but I find errors in the online questions provided with the textbook as well. Helpful to absorb detailed topics. I appreciate that there are answers in the back also so I can ensure I have found the right answer. Love the section that provides hypothetical patient or family questions where I can take the knowledge and put it in layman's terms so I'm ready to explain the pathophysiology in basic terms when needed.

      This was a great addition to the textbook. The textbook was awful in my opinion but this study guide really explained it in a easy to understand and direct way. I love the matching, fill in the blank and most importantly the case studies. Really helps you figure out what you may encounter pathophysiology wise when caring for patients.

      If you really like studying and focusing on details that aren’t on university exams then this is the perfect study guide for you. I did not find this useful at all. The book is decent quality and content seems to be accurate and up to date. The companion text to this book is jam packed with in depth information.

      Cannot recommend this enough. It really cements the material from the book. If you use this, you will understand the content in the book. I find it incredibly helpful in my program.

      Love the study guide. Good tool to review before exam. Study guide is good when you don’t want to carry around text book. It is not a replacement for textbook just another effective tool to help with studying.
