Respiratory is by far the worst module so far at UB. It is extremely poorly organized, the methods of teaching are not good, the physiology is poorly taught and without any integration with disease.
The cases are simply reading articles to the group, and require little analysis and thinking, like other modules have.
The microbio aspect is good, however, and the cases for micro are good. All in all, this module has been much more frustrating and angering than enlightening, as most others have been (especially cardio). I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE UB to revamp this module.

The respiratory module is considered by some to be one of the most organized and cohesive
modules. There is a lot of physiology, pathology, microbiology and pharmacology involved so it is A GREAT TIME TO START USING REVIEW BOOKS. To do well in the course, I found it was more than sufficient to
attend/review lectures and read up on topics in review books. The books
I found most helpful were BRS physiology, BRS pathology, Microbiology
Made Ridiculously Simple and First Aid for Step 1. You can read a few
pages from each of these books on the weekends and they help reinforce
the knowledge you gain from lectures. If you have extra time you can
also do practice questions on Kaplan Qbank. Time studying for this
module is time well spent! You will be able to review Respiratory for
board exam with ease because the module lays down a solid
foundation.
