Hi folks, I have been a silent reader on this forum in the past couple of months and got so much help from it. I have 4 weeks to go now so decide to join in and hopefully ace the board on the exam day. My brief intro: the main source is kaplan notes, I have finished 2 thorough readings of kaplan notes.I've just finished Qbank and Qbook. Next week I am planning to read FA. At the same time, thinking to register USMLeasy. Any adivce or suggestions will be warmly welcomed! Happy studying, folk. Ciao for now, Cali

Hi King, thank you very much for your helpful input. I started FA today. Maybe my brain a bit tired lately so the progress is slow...not very satisfying. I am thinking to hook up with a study partner who has a similar schdule. I just put up an ad in the support forum...do not know how it would go. King, did you study alone while preparing for the exam? if you did, how did you motivate yourself in approach of the exam?! I found myself much more reluctant to study than before.So I am looking for some solutions to push me forward. Best of luck with your score!! God bless!!

Hey Cali.. Progress is always slow in the beginning....it takes to get used to studyign long hours and also one has to have a different strategy for each subject...I think a study partner would be a great idea...it keeps one on track and motivated!...and also you have a constant reminder that you are not alone in all this... ..Heres wishing you all the luck in the world!!!take care

Hi Cyra, thank you so much for your kind words and nice wishes and I am sorry for my late reply. In fact, I've got a partner right after my post. It's really nice, honestly speaking. she is a very knowledgeable and kind partner. Our daily discussion has me motivated again.... How is your study going?! I wish you the very best luck with your study and exams. Please drop by to my dairy world often and say hi....to keep my "pressed-to-be-lowered" spirits high and I shall echo with your happy smiles.

Hi Cyra, just come from your diary land...nice to see you here again . As I mentioned in your diary, I felt quite tired lately so decided to take one or two days off (yesterday and probably today). I hope that I will be fully charged on Monday. I am behind my schedule ...feel a bit anxious. Let's see how it goes. Take care and good luck!

Hi Kaira, thanks for your nice wishes. I resumed my study today. My study was not at full speed but I am glad that I seem to have got around another "tiring zone". I hope that I was in a better shape tomorrow. How is your study, Kaira?! Best of luck with your study!! Nice to be around with you encouraging cheerful people! Happy reading!
