<p>Are there any med students that are very familiar with the book Grey's Anatomy? Well I'm in the Navy currently and I would like to study medicine when I get out. I decided to pick up the book "Grey's Anatomy" from a friend's recommendation however it is very daunting. I don't understand how I should tackle this book. Can someone provide some advice on how I should study this book/break it down? Hopefully someone has read the entire book and/or has studied it in-depth in a class or something.</p>
<p>you can watch the show grey's anatomy instead. :)</p>
<p>really funny. :) no users of this book here, though?? hmmm..</p>
<p>guess not lol</p>
<p>I own the book, mostly because it's one of Border's discount books. It's really daunting and you have to get used to the format; you'd be best off just using it as a really thorough reference tool. You can't exactly read Gray's Anatomy unless you were really hardcore. It's just too easy to let your mind wander reading it.</p>
<p>If your mind is set on reading it, I'd divide it into region and then layer (bones of the arm, then move onto either muscles of the arm or bones of the skull). Take notes in a notebook, but don't copy it word for word. Just write what you feel is the most important part. Draw your own versions of the pictures, label them accordingly. Don't get cramped up on remembering the bones of the ear; stick with major structures.</p>
<p>Yeah that sounds like a plan. It is a bit overwhelming, at least for my current level. I'll get through it though. This seems like the stuff doctorate students/M.D. focus on, so I thought why not take a look at it now.</p>
