anyone interested in in scheduling a chat session for step2? as many people taking the test I would think there could be some very helpful things for all of us we now have a new forum for chat transcripts, that even if our time sched's does not always match , we could study the topics discussed if you missed the actual chat time. I would be willing to post the transcripts in edited form that only covers the actual q's and a's and thus present just the facts,- minus the chit from the chat :wink: if anyone would just copy the sessions and email them to me , which can be done by the icon next to the sound icon. The sessions previous was not documented and now we have a new oppurtunity that will be helpful to all any interest :?:

well then ..let's get the ball rolling shall we :idea: day? time? what works for everyone? I myself, am observing and would like to document the said events who among you is brave enough to initiate this? may I suggest OBGYN then IM then Psych then surg and work through the list? bring your Q banks, High Yields, crack the books and let's knock this S2 outta the ballpark 8) TOGETHER :!:

Seems like no ones really taking the initiative to set anything up....as far as timing goes. helpinhunny, if you dont mind, since youre only going to be documenting the discussion, would everyone else mind it too much if we started out with Medicine, and throw in Peds after OB? If this is okay with everyone, then may I suggest a meeting time of 8pm or 8:30pm EST till whenever. We can either start today or tomorrow with discussing Endocrine and Hem/Onc. Based on how the discussion goes, we can adjust the meeting times, and what topics are to be covered etc. This is merely a suggestion, if anyone else purposes something else, by all means. Hope to start chatting soon. -2bmd

sounds great !! the topics was just a suggestion we do have to keep in mind that on Monday evening the 13th the step 1 chat is sched-- which means that we would have to move from the main chat room to step 2 room- the main room is a good idea to be anyhow since that is where you enter. why dont we do this- announce this on other boards valuemd usmle.net and some yahoo groups and get a few more people in- so that we can pool from other resourses? also-how long do we cover topics? 4 day intervals? for each topic eg- Meds, Peds, OB/Gyn that way we really cover some materials ,give everyone a chance to get in on it. and then rotate and recycle after we went through them and start back with Meds- again giving everyone a chance to study and be helped and encouraged and thus helping our selves retain I am glad you guys are really gung ho on this!! tonite Sat works for me- 8:00 EST I'll be there ! if anyone else would like to come besides 2bmd and I can post transcripts and email you the q's and a's oxy if you you want-- trying to be sensitive to everyones sched- and also help everyone- even those who may join in the future as well as reviewing when sched's allow ....... speaking of retaining did you read this ? http://www.prep4usmle.com/community/topic14550.html
