I am back after a long break, but I am optimistic. I am going to be working hard for two years to get over with all usmle requirements.
My goal is to have step 1 test in january 2008, step2 in july 2008, CSA in october 2008 and step3 in january 2009 while waiting for the match.
Up till now I studied high yield histology, high yield anatomy, Board review series physiology, and working on board review biochemistry, and I have to finish it by May 15. After that I am working on embryology and first aid while ordering the other material..
Right now I am stay at home Mom, and I have two beautiful kids first and second grade. I never worked after grauation in1997, but I will find a part time job in a clinic or even volunteer right after I finish step 1 and step2 while preparing for CSA and step3...and while waiting for the match...If I got the match worked for me I will start internship in July 2009, or in worse cases wait for the following year. In case this happened I will spend the year doing research in the hospital or the clinic... That is the outline for my plan ahead...
For right now going back to biochemistry and the structure of amino acids.
Good luck to all

Hey shwe,
Hope you are all well by now. And hope to see you soon.
I just keep busy studying in library.I guess paying the fees and taking dates has rather made my family more serious about my studies and have started giving me ample of time to study....
I wish I should have taken the block quiet early

Hi Um4,
Nice to hear from you. I am much much better & try not to catch more cold.
I agree , with fees , even for the course , then you'll get better study time than study home. Not too late sis, study hard then try some pre exm tests ahead, then see when the exm date should fix far or near .
GL GL GL happy success study to you, me, & all of us

Hi U4m,
What's plan for mother's day ?
Probably BBQ as our ways? or fall side   
Happy Mother's Day
To mum.. ie to id with... Mommy [ mm ],
Check exm experinces & pick most common & things you like to order the study materials, every one is different, what I mentioned b4 is , just not to miss the common ones that almost every one is using.Even , some did not use the common one if they said are sincere.
But you're your own boss in your study , so choose best that good for you, just not too ways out from common ones.
Hope it helps.
Go to nearest book store, library, even free day at kaplan , so kap will tell you all webs, exm steps, etc allow you to taste their books, dvd, reference lib & vibes of the IMG, AMG studying there.
You might even find the partner from there. To attend it or not is your call .
Happy mother's day all mums
GL happy success study to all of us

Hey shwe thanks for the post in our regular world.....
Hmmm.....mother's day for me was nothing more than getting a card and hug that I love the best......
Other than that  I was picking up weeds from my garden and doing more backyard cleaning!!!!!!!!!!! But you know what....I was missing my mom too much today. Though the bond between my mom and me has always been strong I feel I understand more after being a mom!!!!

How is everyone doing. I have been checking and nobody is writing. How is everybody progress. My kids are almost done with school and Daddy is spending more time with them. It is my chance now to concentrate.
Good luck studying

Hello, nice to see so many mom's studying for step 1. Nice knowing that there is someone out there who understand you! I am a mother of 3, graduated in 03' Took kaplan course in 04' did not study after course, basically sit at home mom. Started studying this January 07, on and off, only got through anatomy and half of physiology. Started studying again 2 weeks ago. Have the whole summer to myself until august 2. Exam scheduled for 31st of July.
Will this precious time that I have be enough to prepare for step1? I have the motivation, but I need help, sometimes, I feel overwhelmed, obsess over every detail.
