Hi all,
Well, let me introduce myself first, I am a IMG completed my internship in feb this year. I Couldnt study much with internship but somehow managed to complete 1st reading of kaplan in dec .
From March I devouted my most of the time in studying. Completed my 2nd read n Q bank in April. MY Q bank score was 60%. I was supposed to give my exam in May end after my final read n memorizing.
Since last 10 days having bad time, so frusrated that couldnt study at all after all the efforts.
So, now decided to cancel my exam n taking next slot of june-aug.
Now taking break for 3-4 days n starting sudies from Monday.This time I promise myself not too pressurize myself too much. Now I am not in hurry to go for 2007 match so will study within my capacity.
Good luck o everyone

Nothing to do much If I am not studying..So bored in 4 days. This days will b my inspiration from monday. I am looking forward for monday so that I start Anatomy... earlier my motto used was to complete 1oo pages or more than that daily. This time I am going to...... MEMORIZE the things I read.
This is my journey of memorizing kaplan n FA.. I am not going to go again into the cycle I was in earlier...The more I read , better I felt....
NOW MEMORIZING IS MY MOTTO. This is going to b my final read to Kaplan notes, n goljan. Then FA , then EXAM. THis time I am going to schedule my date when I feel prepared.
I am not going to think I hav an exam for which I am studying... But I am Going to Enjoy My studying....giving final touchs to every subjects...
With god's grace I will b able to do it definitely.

Thanks mavis for dropping a line.... I know I was doing really well. But the thing was I overworked so much. I was so restless I couldnt sleep for many nights..due to coming exam..
The more I studied the more I wanted from myself...
This happened 1st time with me.. I didnt know what to do...finally had to stop.
I cant study 12hrs everyday... For more than a month... & finally I hav decided not to rush myself I can go for 2008 match too, as I dont have any problem.
My break was whatever I expected. I saw 2 movies today. Relaxed now.. So tomorrow starting the FINAL REVISION.... MEMORIZATION IS THE KEY...
system based study or anatomy????? what to start ???? I think System based study will b fine ...
Exiceted for tommorrow to come... I hav resisted not to hold any book since last 4 days... got to reschedule too...
