unique, thanks for the wonderful notes on chemical imbalances in various diseases.
mytime: i'm confused about answer 3: coz the book clearly points towards d. as an answer choice. can u please explain this further?
i'm so disappointed with my answers. that's the problem with Beh Sc - its so interesting to read, u think u've understood everything and then when u answer qs - u think u've answered them all correctly, but then it turns out that u got most of them wrong.  
anyway, i was able to read very little yesterday - had to go to DMV office right after work and then had so much to pack............rationalization huh
well i'm still one chapter behind all of you, but grateful to mytime for giving a day's break. could do some catching up at least. today and tomorrow are going to be crazy - have to finish packing today and move tomorrow so not sure how much i'll get done in terms of studying. and this is only half the work. i'm soooooooooo not looking fwd to all the unpacking

Oh ho ZENITH don't worry most everyone did the same that's why I keep insisting that lets do this and that...'coz every little thing will help towards a good score.....i have really not being doing much myself what with all three of us down with flu...I just feel so exhausted but will try to do B.Sc.U did a good job in catching up now u do what u have left today and do today's tomorrow. Unpacking can wait u don't have to end up doing it in one day. Take it slowly. Do a little everyday.....u'll anyway want to keep rearranging so take it slow...take a whole month just get the basics out for the weekend.
HEY all HAPPY THANKGIVING...

Ooop! BSc is a minefield. Have to navigate very carefully. Thank for ur answ ,mytime.
May be I am reading an old version of KPLn notes with outdated statistic.
I have just finished path and immuno. Moving to Pharma-yet another  subject.
Not forgetting BSc at the same time.
Holiday are round the corner, but ladies and gentleman stay focused in sudies, while enjoying the fun.
Wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving Holiday!
LOVE

BSc in Small doses!!.
1. A woman who has religious beliefs that preclude blood transfusion is scheduled for major surgery. Prior to the surgery, she is clearly mentally competent and states that the physician is not to give her a blood transfusion, although she may need it during surgery. If a transfusion becomes necessary during surgery, the physician should
A get a court order to do the transfusion
B get permission from the woman's family to do the transfusion
C give the woman the transfusion but not tell her about it
D replace body fluids but not give the woman the transfusion
E give the woman the transfusion and inform her of it when she recovers from the anesthetic.
2.A 5 year old girl is brought to the pediatrician by her mother for evaluation of her readiness to enter school The mother is worried because the child had to be withdrawn from prechool last year because of an inability to cope with the other children . She reports that the child becomes very upset if her daily routine is interrupted.The child's birt history and past medical history are unremarklable.She reached her neurodevelopmental milestones, including speech development on schedule. WOF is the most likely diagnosis in this child.
A. Asperger's Syndrome
B. Autistic disorder.
C. Childhood disintergrative disorder.
D. Expressive language diorder.
E. Rett's disorder.

Hey zenith, will you believe that I have never gone shopping on black Friday although I really want to venture it . Hubby is always working and I do not dare taking the kids out so early in the cold
Hey what about our next subject after Beh.Sc. ? I really want to do Pharmac after this . What do you guys think ? Most of us have not done Pharmac yet and proctalgia has already mentioned that he is going to start it . Actually I want to do Pharmac as our main subject if everyone agrees . I guess it will be proctalgia's main subject too.
What is your opinion gang especially Boss ????

Okay guys , I am done with the chapter but I found it hard , may be because I have not done Neuroantomy yet.

Hi there ppl
First of All HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
We in the other grp have come up with a plan (sort of a booster) for us in the hurdle race for MLE hoping for ur feedback n wondering if u guys could join us or give us some tips after all we all r in this together. I know u guys r on Beh Sc but if could have a look at it
Alright ppl
here is the proposed time n study schedule for the wkend Saturday 25th Nov 2pm EST for Immuno n then from there onwards every wk Sat 2 pm for discussion for which ever topic we need to discuss as most of us r trying to get on the faster track of studying, topics will be decided on majority votes during the wk.
Most of us r aiming for Jan Feb Mar time if any one is else is going for a latter date no problem atleast they might get to do extra revisions during that time.
So plz give me ur feedback. we r here to help each other to get across this Hurdle of Steps n aiming for the ང Match for Residency With Allah 's Blessings.
Good Luck to us All !
