i'm taking the test on April 20, in exactly one week... Anybody else around this date?
I'm just curious ....is it just me or is it normal to lose your patience to an extreme level these last few days? i always thought these will be the moments I would just sit here and cram all day, under the pressure of the soon coming exam, but here I am, counting days, hours, and praying that it passes faster so that I can get over with it and start having a life again... I know that after almost 9 months of studying for many hours a day, these 7 more days shouldn't mean too much but i just can't wait to finish this living, stressing nightmare. maybe i spent too long on this exam...
I'm reading FA these days, and reviewing my notes... don't know if I should do questions instead or just review?... I took nbme 1 week ago and got 660. i guess it's pretty good, but it didn't lower my anxiety, as everybody says the real exam is much harder than this nbme.
Don't know....
Sorry guys for this long whining post, but i just felt I should let it out to the only people who would understand this...the ones that are going through the same thing. Are you guys more confident? what do you do to feel better about this? what are you doing these last days?
Thanks for listening...
and good luck to everybody!!

hi alina
dont panic and try to stay calm.all this is process is normal (though i havent faced it yet) and you will definetly do well in the exam.you have got great score in nbme,so you shud be confident.just try to remember your nbme score whenever you panic up.

goodluck and all my prayers are with you!!!!

Thank you kiran! you're always nice and try to encourage people. yeah...i'm trying to say I'll be fine according to the score.
actually, i felt better this morning somehow. I know it's normal to go through this and I'm definitely not the first or the last person who takes this exam right?
Finished FA today, don't know what's next...it would be so much to read....i'd never finish.
Hi drmcian,
All the best for your test! i know how you feel, it's getting closer.. As for NBME, everybody suggests to do it, some say it closest to the exam (style and difficulty), some say it's easier...don't know yet, but the score you get matches the real score pretty well (they say). So do it, you still have time, so that you'll know what to expect.
Good luck studying ! and PATIENCE...
