really?! Happy days! At warwick we have to know it inside out....
lol
yeah me too! I agree that knowing the origins and insertions makes identifying and relating the muscles soooo much easier on the other hand imagine how much less revision you would have to do if you didn't have to learn them lol.
Bex, at your uni do you do anatomy as a module or is it integrated into other modules over the years? Just wondering because at warwick we do musculoskeletal as a module then I don't think we have it again so pretty much reliant on remembering it, whereas if we had it as part of many modules over the years, that might be a easier way to remember?

I'm like Bex, never learnt insertion of muscles and just learnt the main muscle groups. I bought Moore and Dalley, but really wish I hadn't bothered as it is far too much information that is really not necessary to know and the whole book is badly organised. If I could go back in time I would have just bought the small mini version of Moore and Dalley and used Anatomy at a Glance. I can't say that any of the extra details I learnt from Moore and Dalley have been even remotely useful for the clinical part of medicine. If you want to be a surgeon you're going to need all the details then, but you're probably better off learning the details in context when it is needed.

To be honest I don't think the mini M&D version is so mini. I actually read a lot of the chapters in paralell in both, and find they are almost exact copies. Only the "mini" book shrinks down the tables to about a third of the size, cuts out half the diagrams, and leaves out many of the clinical boxes. I actually prefer the larger book as the diagrams are what I need!

remember that droves of med students buy books becos they are conditioned to do so, not becos its the smart fing to do.
fink independently. use the library's books.
