i couldnt study for the whole past week. i was so tense and depressed and just stayed in my room doing nothing. this exam is getting too tough for me. i am constantly haunted by the thought that i will not make it through.
please god help me get the faith again....
But sitting here will do nothing. i have now decided i will do whatever i can. i dont know God' will. may be he wants me to or may be he dont. i wont find it out untill i do my best. well i am far away from my best now but i will do what i can.
so i will start again today and try to finish my Renal Pathology.

hopefully path phys will end till 20th.

ir is strange how one forgets everything after a gap of few days. its the worst thing for a prep. that i give a gap of a week or more. get out of touch.
right now i am feeling like i am starting from start. i have lost all momentum. but i will get it back in 2-3 days inshallah.

Back again<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I must stay more in the forum than I do. But it’s all time management where I am so poor. Any way I will be more regular from now on.

My last plan didn’t work. All because of me. I make plans and than I don’t put in needed effort. When they don’t work I feel so bad and depressed. But I must keep on trying. Quitting is the worst thing I can do now.

I will have to extend my triad. No way can I appear in this month. I am doing a quick review these days. I will do Kaplan CD on 20th and see where I stand.

We learn from every failure. What I learned from my last failure & a long period of inactivity is that I must not do that again. And I won’t. Every failure teaches us something. I fail when something doesn’t work. I won’t fear from failures. No.

So in next 7 days I need to review neuroanatomy, genetics, and gross anatomy. Also a general review from FA & step up. A lot of work and not very easy. But I can do it. I will do it.

Inshallah.

If you can get up one more time than you fall, you will make it through.

Yes, in this long battle with usmle step 1. i will make it through if i get up one more time than i fall.

i have spent so much time that i think that i should know things. but time is nothing. i know people who have been preparing for this exam for 2-3 years and still are not ready. so i will be prepared by working to my limits and not be investing days even if little work is done.

today went to library rather late. as i got up late. :-( but still managed to study 6 hrs. way better than zero.

i hope i will do well on 20th. inshallah.

meaning it wont be too demoralizing. :-)

i like your chinese proverb. eventually you won't fall if you diligently practice standing up.
good luck
keep your head up
