hey friends. yeah, i do have a yahoo. will try to dl the qbank. currently am in the middle of pharmac, dunno how i'll keep up. but, will try my best, coz quitting is not in my vocab. but, splitting myself in to horcruxes is not possible either.[does anyone recognize that sentence, or should i call harry to explain??] will try to catch up asap.

shwe, i like the idea of racing through the week till the finish. some competition should 'whip' us into action, eh? mt, you listening?rolling eyes

how are my other new study buddies doing? better than me, i hope. am not in the race yet, guys, but am sure here to cheer y'all on till i join. this is so gonna help us. we'll probably realize while shivering in the prometric center.

p.s. i think my signature is quite meaningful, don't you? why don't we enlarge it, too???!!!

novak: thanks dear for your heartfelt wishes. and what's this u're deciding now - i thought u were going to take your exam soon. please finish your exam b4 u start working again - from prior experience u know how difficult it is to study with a job.

shwe: i'm sorry honey - didn't mean to offend you/pass along negative vibes, but talking to my friend yesterday seriously got me thinking. but u're so right - " People Who CANNOT DO ANYTHING ,
will keep saying that
You cannot do it

........BUT remember
You CAN DO IT."

mytime: it was wonderful talking to u after such a long time. take care and study hard.

HEHEHEHE!........ U have to make up for that today.

UNIQUE I'll give u our version.grin


  #3589

OH KG STuDYING IS SO MUCH FUN rt? It's 1 am how wil I ever wake up in the morning to bug Unique?! with all the anti-bugs i have been reading. rolling eyes




  #3590

Bug her now, just kidding, since already almost 3 am here .
She might be awake too by reading harry potter with torch light like her child.grin

Cannot sleep so, reading , studying, thank god , it's not the exm night .

MT, not clear about Q, ans , cannot find it , anyway .
Good, night, or morning .nodnod

  #3591

Thanx for all the warm welcome. I miss u all.

MT, I am a bit computer illiterate and did not quite undertstand how to work the Q's, so I am much behind and will play catch up 2morrow. BTW I do not have embryo or any others. Please Pm me re any download source. It was good talking to u, ur words motivated me. I think that I can do this. Well at least I will give it a hard try. No more kidding around.

Aim: Do not worry about what anybody says to you. Everybody has a different story and sometimes they only tell you half the truth as misery loves company. All I am telling u is that U do not know the whole story. Besides Just beleive in God and beleive in urself. There are plenty of opportunities for us, we jsut have to be smart about the way we do thing. And why r u putting the cart b4 the horses. One step at a time. First hurdle is Step1 or whatever step u plan on doing next. Please refocus (something I need to do myself).

Let us keep shipping away at this.

You know what Shwe ? I slept at 5:30 in the morning shocked. I slept at my usual time and my daughter woke me up after 15 min. After that I could not go to sleep and finally started listening to Dr.Goljan who managed to put me to sleep.

Acintya, to me Dr.Raymon' Biochem lectures are the best hypnotics in the world grin. I have to put them on my ipod.

Zade and Paheli, Please check your pms.

Keepgoing, what can I say? Your name says it all .....KEEP GOING.

Aim, Hope to see you here more often. Study or no study for the time being, just stop by to drop a hello.

Where are you Target ??

mytime, somebody's b'day comin up, it seems. betta bust your ass if you want to earn the day off, eh?!nod

Aim got my pm ??

Sis, sweety , you did not offend me.
Just so upset that you get distracted by negative stories after all you have been through , survive together with Target, us here after all our long posts in response to you both thinking of quitting then come back finally long ago in long ago month this yr.

Anyhow Aim , just do not want the negative thought tinted, distract , unease others too.

But do open up your thought negative or not , so we all can chip in to find the solution together . You just think out loud , so that's good, we hear you, now we 're stronger.

Am so glad you come back, believe in your self.

As ZADE said worry exm 1st, residency later, this is another didtract we all got at 1st place that makes us to be or not to be in the game . The residency is PD's worry, our is to get best high score or not , to show up at the residency door, so PD can see us to choose us at least .

Aim , anatomy if to study , abit too much. But to read as harry potter , is the best. Can stop, start at any where & pick it up again. I did in long yrs on train to, from work for good long yrs. Mine by time is few pages copy , easy to carry, you can try on few printing paper or lined sheet at sleepy tired night to make summary , read on the way to work or after way back, not to let work know by carrying the book, or make 5 by 7 flash card .

GL sis , get your GC quick & come back here FT .
In between do post at least as Hi , I am good at job , so we will not worry death .

GL GL GL happy success study to all of usnodnod

  #3596

ZADE belated welcome back , keep in the game here, pl do not left us anymore .
Where is usmle4me , all others ??

GLnod

  #3597

U ...

Agree bioch of Dr. R is the best hypnoptics .

  #3598

hi mytime and shwe..answers for 1 & 2 are here

for question #1

The correct answer is A. The brachial artery is immediately medial to the tendon of the biceps brachii at the elbow. As the artery enters the forearm, it is covered by the bicipital aponeurosis, a broadening of the biceps tendon.

The musculocutaneous nerve (choice B) does not cross the elbow. The musculocutaneous nerve gives off all its muscular branches to muscles in the arm. The remainder of the nerve is then renamed the lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm, which passes the elbow lateral to the tendon of the biceps.

The profunda brachii artery (choice C) arises from the brachial artery in the proximal part of the arm. It accompanies the radial artery in the musculospiral groove and then divides into the radial collateral artery and middle collateral artery, which cross the elbow lateral to the tendon of the biceps.

The radial nerve (choice D) lies within the musculospiral groove along the back of the humerus, then passes between the brachioradialis muscle and the brachialis muscle at the elbow, lateral to the tendon of the biceps.

The ulnar nerve (choice E) crosses the elbow posterior to the medial epicondyle of the humerus. It then passes between the two heads of the flexor carpi ulnaris and courses through the forearm deep to this muscle.

and

question # 2--D


  #3599

Thanks a millions sis KG .

Waiting for # 2 explaination when you have time.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the time put to put up full explaination of # 1 .

I got wrong #1, right # 2 .
Thanks , so 50% accordingly grin

  #3600

Yipeee! I am back......nothing holding except the move...longer and harder than I thought.weared me out.....! Hey but at the end of it I was proud I did all myself.....except for the big couches and bed.....last year I was so physically unfit I couldnt lift a thing! and cursed myself -and said that next year should better next year which I guess it is. Though it is the next block, just touching every single thing in the house and putting it in a box carrying it to the next house and putting it back......THe most painful was the USMLE books. I almost feel like crying everytime I unpack and pack my books- how many years .........Gosh!

I prayed yday after I moved the last stuff and brought my favorite picture of Jesus to the new house and said " Now that completes my new house- I hope all is going to be good from now on".

Guess what !!!later at night when I went to lab and checked my email, I foudn I got my immigration petition approved in the EB1 category (extraordinary ability alien) which I didnt dream of but just applied...though there is another step to the green card....I think the most important step is done - hey..........so I get to stay in the States beyond my expiry this year......Thank God!

So Aim, I have been through all what you are going through.....mean bosses.......who stole my work and havent given me first author manuscripts, stole my ideas for their grants......but in the end I think hey its okay it is only going to be for the good of people........doesnt matter who does the work that benefits others! Some discoveries which almost got a patent bosses pretend it is not that important and ask you to quit and then start working on your findings! My attitute to the whole thing is and I beg to differ here from the others - I tell the truth no matter what even if it puts me in a yukky situation - if the bosses have a hard time dealing with the truth it is their problem not yours. For me it is hard to live with a lie and pretence than facing the worst situation like losing your job for the truth. God is wathcing ......he will restore you to your vicotry. IT IS HARD........but try to take the high road....walk with dignity and forgive them and be nice to them and smile like shwe said. You will feel much much better about yourself. Just wake up everyday and realize it is a great day and live it like it is your last day.........give it your BEST ....... No worries Aim, God has our life under control and sees what we cant see into the future. Just trust Him and let Him work in your life.

Rest of the gang thanks for dropping by my thread ( others dont worry ...even I havent visited in the last few days :nodsmiling face - Here I come ....onto path/anat for now....I love it here........We rock, dont we, as a team! Cheers!
