Definitely go with Lippincott. It's brief, to the point and has plenty of info. I occasionally used Harper as well, but really Lippincott + a few lecture notes here and there is all you need.

of corse, Lipincott but if you are a govt. medical collegee student, u can always add Mushtaq's biochem to it, as most of the teachers find it as a significant source of knowledge!

Try to really follow the diagrams in Lippincott, and if that doesn't work, then let us know what you're having trouble with specifically.

lippincott is a hard read. But I guess if you can memorize you're gold.
