hello Kutty:
i am really sorry to hear about your step1. don't give up though. take a deep breath; and think about the future....start with good sources..i think kaplan is more than enough....even if you failed study kaplan; stick with it; do qbank 3moths; and hit it hard everyday.for 8hrs/day for 6 moths...this is an easy exam once you know the basics; trust me; i was also in your situation; thinking about the exam day and night; don't let the exam control your life or take over you; you should try to put your feet on the exam and control it. like you step on ant. don't let it ruin your life or emotions......start fresh with kaplan, and always think positive...do kaplan, do kaplan do kaplan day and night. keep hitting it; while you are studying it; write down what ever seems to be difficult for you; or you could mark that page; and after each time you get through with whole kaplan books; hit those pages that you marked may be 3 to 4 times.........see the thing is repitition.....repitition.......i was almost crying having to go through so many books; sticking with kaplan should be more than enough..................GOOD LUCK...and always smile......life is not worth getting stressed out.............remeber what you are achieving is something worth it.......enjoy life while you are studying....go and get enrolled in a gym to be active...............

hi karusmle: i think you will be more active that way; looking at new faces in the gym and try to live like a normal person. don't let the exam get you, do whatever you feel like that would motivate you either swim, jog, bicycle etc....besides studying have some activity so you are connected with the world.........since we have to sit down at one chair for hours and hours, it is better to jog; i joined a gym at 24 hr fitness; i was doing aerobic + light weights;...i certainly think it sure helps a person...............thanks again

Kutty, you are getting good feedback. Hang in there. By the way, you asked about being tired by joining the gym. The point is to get your blood flowing and give you more energy. Don't .... train for a marathon (exept step one). Just walk on a treadmill and let your mind focus on a healthy mind, body, and spirit. It will help.

I usually tend to my garden at least 30 mins. in the am & 15 mins in the pm to relieve my stress. I now talk to myself sometimes. Don't get me wrong just talking w/ the flowers abt Biochem while watering the plants. Hey that makes me sane!
Good Luck to you. You'll surely make it next time. just don't give up!
