Er have you been studying for this exam for the last 6 months or so?

  #152

hi,

well today should be a tough day.... in all have to read about 140 pages... i guess i made things tough for myself by slackening the other day... so now i have to try harder... already i am late by 1 day... so i'll try my best to complete it today...

to medocuk: wow that question was like a mirror to me... made me face the facts as they were.... yes, i started 6 months ago and then had to postpone things for almost 2 and a half months coz of pressing needs on the domestic front... anyways now i am back and hope to accomplish this mission without another interruption... and with all u wonderful people around to inspire i feel my heart full of hope...

Best of luck to each and everyone of you on this site...

  #153

Wow, I understand interruption..But you go girl.Ive noticed you are making a head way.keep at it.Get done with it.It is only another exam.

Give it your best shot.Now..don't wait for whenever..Good luck.

hi everyone,

yesterday could manage to complete just half of my target.... so 70 pages still remain... already am 2 days behind my schedule... atleast i hope i can complete it today as i will be taking sunday and monday off.

biochem as usual is a bit of a challenge for me. on tuesday i shall be starting with beh sci/biostatistics alongwith a revision of neuroanatomy (my absolute weakest subject...)


its important for me to finish todays target... i just hope i can manage to do it...

to medocuk: thanks for ur nice words... good luck to u as well.

happy studying guys!

  #155

hi guys,

a very happy new year to all of you!!

well i have finally managed to complete my biochem/genetics revision. now wil be starting with beh sci and neuroanatomy. but that will be tomorrow.

today i'll be spending the entire day attempting qbank questions. lets see how many i can complete today... j have no target as such.... i'll just try to do and understand as many as i can...

i'll keep my progress posted....

good luck to u all...

  #156

so far i'm staying focussed on attempting questions.... hopefully i can continue this way for the rest of the day..

  #157

Hey SHRUNt u are doing good..........keep at it! While we all took our breaks u kept going and that was wonderful! qs. are good. So march on, soldier!nod

  #158

hi everyone,

yesterday managed to do and review 150 questions. today am starting with beh sci and neuroanatomy... my target is to complete revising them by coming tuesday. this time i had overrun my target by 3 days... lets see if i can keep to it this time or not..


to mytime: thanks a ton for ur words of encouragement. u indeed are a source of strength for our entire group. we are lucky to have u amongst us. Best of luck to u!

ok guys, i'm starting my day a bit early today... happy studying to u all smiling face

  #159

hi guys,

from now on i'll report my progress in a more easy to understand way. every morning i'll decide on the total number of pages i have to complete by night and i'll report my progress as a percentage of that target. that should help me track my productivity for each day better i feel...

so far i've completed just 11% of my todays target... wow so much still remains..

  #160

hi guys,

its almost 5:30 in the evening at my end. so far completed 30% of today's target...

  #161

hi everyone,

yesterday managed to complete 45% of my target which i admoit was a very tough target....

today am starting a little late as i had slep rather late last night.

i hope i can meet at least 75% of my today's target in beh sci and neuroanatomy ...

good luck n happy studying to u all

  #162

hi guys,

the revision is going slow but steady....

yesterday could manage to complete about 50% of my set target.

today i hope to do better than yesterday but will keep my fingers crossed....

good luck to u all.

  #163

nOt bad S. u are ok......consistent and that's what's important.

  #164

hi guys,

its really late at my end and i cant keep my eyes open any longer. so i guess i should call it a day now before i fall off my chair with sleep!

today i could manage to meet 55% of my target.... i am not complaining because i did manage to do better than yesterday.. hope i can improve on this tomorrow.

to mytime: thanks for ur encouragement. sometimes staying consistent is pretty tough especially for step 1 i guess... anyways good luck to u too.

i'm off to sleep now.

goodnight and good luck to everyone.

  #165

hi everyone,

well i took the weekend off... so am starting today from where i left....

i am revising my target for completing beh sci and neuroanatomy for the end of this week...

its almost 8:10 at my end and i'm starting right away...

goodluck to everyone.


  #166

no news at the other thread but looks like u have been busy.Good.wink

  #167

hi everyone,

yesterday i completed 60% of my target which has been the best so far....

well quite apparently i am being very rusty and relatively much slower than i was at my peak of prep a few months back... the unplanned interruption of my studies has considerably taken away much of the speed of retention...

but i will not give up on that... i will keep trying....

hopefully todays target fares better...

to mytime: i have been just trying to deal with my comeback blues... it can be pretty depressing to realize that despite your best efforts u are just about meeting only half of ur target day after day... but that said, i guess one can only try... and i am doing just that.... i will surely start posting in our "original thread" more regularly once i manage to get things a little bit under more control out here...


good luck to u all.

  #168

i am tired but strangely not sleepy even though its 4:30 am at my end... well overall a better day than yesterday and thats all really i care for now... today met 65% of my target... tomorrow i wish i can make it touch the 70% mark finally....

well i'm nowhere near meeting my targets for the day but seems the progress report is slowly inching upwards.... and that gives me hope...

i guess i should get some sleep now... if i sleep for abt 5 hours, i should be able to begin not before 10 am at the earliest.... tomorrow i must meet 70% of my target! lets see if i can do it or not...

goodluck to everyone!

  #169

Keep up the good work shrunt !!!!!

We can do it .nodnod

Shrunt u talk about come back blues ever heard of staying on blues.........with u baby but hey we can all just try like u so said.........u are doing alright maybe ur goals are a bit too much...Check on that.nod

  #171

hi everyone,

its almost 11:30 am at my end... i woke up abt half an hour ago and am ready to face another day...

today's target is clearly sitting there on the table staring back at me... i hope i can finally crack the 70% completion mark today... but right now am keeping my fingers crossed...

to unique: yes, we can do it if we have the will and we DO HAVE the will! ...we just need to keep trying... and u are urself doing a commendable job at that keep up the battle!

to mytime: well i won't say i'm setting an unrealistically hard target... it's hard but pretty much doable... and i feel if i can do it once, i can do it again.... and again.... so basically i just need to prove to myself that it is DOABLE.... as they say, it's all really in the head... so i am trying and will keep trying untill i can finally meet my target by 100%... though right now i'll be happy just with 70% smiling face

goodluck to all u guys!

  #172

hi guys,

yesterday could meet 50% of the set target... so the 70% mark still remains out of reach as of now,,,,


today i'll launch another attempt to reach it though it has been eluding me ever since i've set on this revision...

but try i would... everyday...

so here i go...


happy studying.

  #173

Phew! It's almost 4 am at my end and I'm tired.... but i am also feeling much better about my progress as i finally managed to complete 70% of my target! it was elusive but reachable.... now my next goal would be 80% of my target...

another news for today is that i finally managed to complete beh sci and neuroanatomy ! so tomorrow i'll be starting with anatomy and after a real quick revision i shall start with physio and patho on monday... my target would be to be over with them by end of next week... am not sure how close i will manage to stay to my target but i would be trying my best...

so tomorrow it shall be gross anatomy...

since its already past 4am , i don't think i'll be able to start studies before 11 am today... but since there is so much to cover in one and a half day (as i'll be taking half of sat and full sunday off) so i guess i better wake up all prepared...

so i guess i must get some sleep now...

goodnight everyone and goodluck to u all.

  #174

hi guys,

its 11:40 here and i woke up about half an hour ago... so starting my studies really late today...

anyways will be going all out on gross anatomy today... i must try to omplete it by monday as i would be starting on the 2 big daddies- patho and physio on monday and i dont see hopw i could complete ythem in less than a week... so for the next 8 days or so i have my task cut out before me....

so gross anatomy, here we go...

happy studying to all of u.

  #175

hi everyone,

on friday i could only meet 40% of my target... so there was no way i could've finished gross anatomy on friday and half of saturday... so i studied a bit on saturday and a bit on sunday too. but still i got almost 1/3 gross anatomy left which i hope i will be able to complete today.

so thats that target for today...

goodluck to everyone.
