65% that's a good score after your genetic-molec review, keep it up vallia, you are such a good student wink I will take the exam in a litle bit more than 2 months so let's cheer up, just few weeks of sacrifice, and then the glory wink enjoy your reading smiling face

  #14

good job vallia. bioch, genetics, mol biol, those were my worst nightmare!!! i actually did good in them but had not so good points in histology and cell biol!!! try doing clinical vignettes in bioch and it will help even more.

good luck.

good luck with behavioral science Vallia, dunno if you use Daugherty but he just makes everything so easy, well, it seems you are just in the right path, keep it up wink




  #18

Vallia, you haven't update your diary but I know you are doing great, thanks for stopping by and have a very productive day nod Keep the energy and motivation up ok smiling face


  #19

thanks buddy for visiting...yea I read 6 chapters of behavioral and I have the same problem.as the last time I read it.....somehow it seems easy but when it comes to question it's not easy at all. This is a very volatile subject for me ...well I'll do my best,try to cover 2 more chapters today and also look on that website about ethics. And the milestones? no match with my son's progress, he drew rectangle at 3, speak at 2, walk at 12 months , well i guess I got to memorise this too...i see you are doing good, keep going dear friend.

Vallia, thanks for cheering me up, appreciate it I see you are with behavioral science. Daugherty? Kaplan? well, that guys cracks me out everytime I hear him, just his face it's like a joke he is a great teacher but let me tell you something, I had a qs for him from NBME and he said "I have no idea what this is" so I think behavioral science is something we can't do that much about, just have your concepts straight and specially the safe stuff, well done like milestones, as you said, your ethic rules etc but don't worry so much about the subjective qs ok, I think is better to spend more time in qs where you know you can have a safe answer; even He told me that, he said, have the safe stuff well known and for the tricky questions bet your best. I love to hear his audios in the train or while walking it saves me time and just Biostat is left for another review.

Good luck Vallia, you are doing awesome


  #21

hei Musuq how you doing buddy?

i'm almost done with BS ( still have to read today Epidemio and Statistics) and I did Bs 1 from Qbank and scored 66%. I must say about the Qs that I was wrong, I would never got them in a million years. i guess in my country we do thinks differently, well still i'm happy with the result so far and hope to improve after last revision. Now I'm having a small study break and in an hour will come back to read the statistics. Happy study everyone.

GL vallia.. Are you studying Kaplan notes? How did you start? Your qbank results are very good. Myexam is same as yours but my scores fr qbank are disappointing. How are u approaching your review? How many hrs a day?
I have been studying for a looong time too but seems like nothing sticks to my brain..
Heelppp

  #23

Hey Gang

Vallia, 66% is a good score, considering that Kaplan qs are sometimes difficult comparing to the real test, beside as you say, these qs are kinda tricky so we can't bet for these qs as safe. Keep working on your Biostat and Epidemio, thos are the safe ones in the whole book, well others as well may count safe as psychopharm, milestones, and others but the part of ethics and cage qs just knock me down. Good luck with the material you have left on this BS book.




  #24

Done behavioral science, thanks God. Also did Qbank BS2 and scored 72%. I am happy ,I enjoy Bs (not the calculations) but the problem is the question are way to lenghty, sometimes I need to read them 2 times, to get the meaning.

Today I'll start immunology. 3 days for it.
