i havnet really thought about doin goljan audio or stuff or even kaplan lectures... im not planning to either.. but im gonna ask around.. if they r indespensible to a good score ..then woe betide me..i'll have too...
alrity then..
iv started with physio. finished a few topics but my speed just isnt upto the mark...three days behind schedule....

yes i think it will help u too keep goljans HY notes in concederation , its basicaly integration of all other subjects with pathology , atleast that how look at it. although i would say go with goljan's 100 pages HY notes not the 36 pages , but u can check both out and u might it helpful
good luck

So i guess my goal is pushed up to dec 2006.... it also mean having to start from scratch.......
i resent the fact that i lost so much time ,,,,even when realising there was no other way.... a part of me is still in the dumps.....
my internship ,which should have gotten easier in the last two months...just tightened its noose....now i have one more month to go...then hopefully i can have a little more distraction free life...
so once more i begin.....

it is not easy to study during internship so dont be too hard on yourself. just keep a nice rhythm and get used to 'essential' studying and not 'leisure' studying and you will make it for dec.

thank tolito....
it was the whole... i-like-physio-y-has-it-become-so-hard..that was putting me off...scaring me actually....
..im begining to realise(at a cost of valuable time)...the reason i was finding physio so very difficult and so new was becauze in my med school..we dont really do graphs and charts ...its more like theory... so now im doing brs ..finish a chapter from that and then do the same chapter from kaplan.......voila!!!!! it all becomes crystal clear...
the procees is time consuming...but its feels so darn good...... knowing that im gonna not feel stupid if i dont get the graphs at first try or if they dont stay in ma head at first look...long live brs!!!!!!!
