hi, i am new to this forum ,but had always been a silent reader and admirer , i really like this forum ,the way u people give advices and help eachother , its just great ..
i am an img , trying for step 2 ck , right on head in june , i have done two reads from kaplan and doing u.w with score s between 60s and 70s , i am not a fast reader and this makes me waste a lot of time , so i decided to write my daily efforts , with a wish that the great advices o f u people will make my life real better .
i finished medicine yesterday and have to finish peads . in 3 days + u.w , 46 q a day , its 9.30pm right now ,have done first 15 chaps of peads ,and still have to do 1 more chap. before going to sleep . i hope i will make it .

thanks agn , and best of luck to u and every one on this forum , well its 10.50 pm right now , i was not able to finish resp . yesterday , so today i just did , infec . med. and resp . both from peads .and int.medicine . i think its a better way to combine the two subjects , it will help more .
so i did u.w 46 qs , and will do 25 qs from q book before going to sleep .
i made the target to finish my peads .in 3 days , but i think it will take 2 more days coz i am revising int.med. with it again , its time consuming , but i think its helping me to correlate the two subjects alot . i hope i am doing right , if any advice ,do right plz .

i knew it! thats the the spirit i like ur post in my diary i wanted to listen that tone from your voice now you are fully charged never underestimate your self in any era of your life you are the trend maker i know you i am really happy to see you in this form keep doing hardwork only hardwork pays off nothingelse & keep ur aims high.there is no shortcut in the life . i was lil depressed last days b/c i was unable to cathch my targets & was lil slower in speed that was hurting me alot i have to finish every thing by the end of ths moth & finished only micro yet without immuno infact & did endo from physio thats all if you have any idea how to divide all subjects in 20 days plz give me thats what i want. anyway goodluck.

hi every body , i am back , well was not able to write for along time , coz having no computer access , but now i have , thanks god finished my peads . and doing surgery, will finish it soon , doing u.w questions with it , surgery , and heamatology and onco. , i really liked ur advice , zzzz , that what ever subject i read ,dont do questions of it on the same day , it that way will do it correct and will go in short term memory only . u r right . so i have changed my style , i am doing surgery , doing only few questions of it , but main focus of questions is on heam and onco , which i read few weeks back , i am doing many many questions wrong , but reading explanations one more time is helping me alot . its 1 am now have to finish one more subject , i wish i could finish with my whole course by the end of this month , only 10 more days left . and my obgy and psyc. and almost 2 chapters of surgery left . have to do at any cost , u guys wish me luck , i need ur support alot , and yes best of luck to u all again , and 3535, u r right , it really takes an hour to cut a tree but takes thousand hours to sharpen the exam , we must put all our efforts ,and will get our goal nod
