Hi:

Since i am an old IMG, the first time I was scared and spent lots of time to work my terminology using my medical dictionary a lot. As being a busy mom with a full time job, I have no time off during last a few weeks my review. I have chosen my exam day on" no school day" as an excuse to take time off. I thought I totally failed, scored 173/71. Not too far behind? I want to give 2nd try in a few months. This time I was over confident. The score was 177//73. Oh my God! I was depressed!! Be serious with 3rd try! I reduced my working hours, and restudied each subject from kaplan and BRS and HY books. I really appreciate Dr. Golijan's CD lecture. I did most BSS and bought Kaplan's Qbank for one month scored 76%. Luckily, I took off from work for 5 weeks and sent kids to grandparent's house aching for the exam!! During the last week of my study my husband was out of town. He prepared food for me enough for a whole week. I realize we all have so much potential! It is tough, but now I am happy. School just started, I did all I can do for my kids and spent some time at school. I think I made right choices!

ing, thanks for asking
