I had a hard time with biochem like you do, docpika..spent huge time on it and then realized i didn't remember any pathway at all.. the book is tooo much
To me, i printed the chapter biochem (only) in med essential, just abt 15 pages, used it along with FA, and added detail when i did questions..i think it's enough for biochem..
Good luck.

kln are long i undersstand but the videos are excellent from lionel raymond its a mustttt u watch them to understand... yes u will not remember the PATHWAYS but when did usmle ever quiz u on that .... just kno the defects.... START DRAWING THEM OUT multiple times over and over and over and know the rate limiting thats all u need .... not that glucose goes to glucose 6 phosphate to fructose 6 phosphate to blah blah blah to DHAP and G3P to PEP to Pyruvate to Ach CoA .... just kno RL and Pathology.... gooodluck!!
