hi gv5 ! i am planning to start my step 2 ck prep too. i was wondering y dont u start with somethig relatively easier like surgery (that is what i plan to start off with ). i believe that once i am done with a a subject or two , it'll boost my confidence to keep going as medicine we all know tends to get dry n monotonous( dont mind my spellings lemme know ur comments on this ...

Hi gv5 and Wendy, Thank you gv5. I'm planning of taking my exam in July. I'm gonna start Endo in a few minutes. Havent studied anything till now. Actually my In laws are here. They are just visiting for a few days so I guess till then my studies will be veryyyyyyy slow But still i'll try to read a lil bit. I'm gonna start usmleworld questions in a few days on the 9th of this month. Have you guys started doing usmleworld yet? Ok, got to go now. Takecare guys and Good Luck with your studies!

Hi gv5, Hope your studies are going well. I was out of town but now again back to studies. I finished reading endo but couldnt read hemat. Yesterday I started with Cardio and will try to finish it by tomorrow. As I couldnt read for the past few days, i'm a bit stressed out right now. I'll try to read 40 pages of Cardio today and then do UW questions in the evening.
