i gotta admit this,yesterday was a total waste.i did only skinn and CNS and that also not complete.invited 2 guys for lunck but they stayed on and on and on.andd evnening at friends place.but it was fun meeting and talking to ppl,it gives a vent a change of enviroment .

am feeling guilt over it coz i made an unrealistic schedule.

ok so lots to do for today and tomm.

Hi smal,
I wanted to ask you if you have Goljan audio for the kidney and male genitalia..The version i have has all the audio files prefixed with numbers and they run from 1 to 35 in a 5 day set up. The last lecture( prefixed 29) on day 4 was dealing with kidney and then suddenly the next tape starts with hirstusim in female genital system( prefixed 30) on day 5...Soi just wantd to ask if you have these missing lectures.
Thanks in advance and as usual good luck with your preperation and i am sure you will shine.

  #82

hows it going buddy , did u take nbme , how did it go??

so when is the D day?


  #84

yupe fruity i did take NBME,it was 211.
i see my score varring so much ,like in UW ,once i score 76,nxt i score 54,even 46!
i completely feel its the mind on the day of ur exam.
what i need to condition my mind to is not to think about 1 qt after answering it.coz most of the time we boil down to 2 answers.and when we get same kind of qt in the same test,my mind sets of the trigger. and secondly not to think if i got it rt or wrong,it decreases the performance in other sets.
right now my plan is to complete subject reading till 9th.from then its 7 hrs qt a day and revising topics for like 2/3 hrs.
my plan was to finish all subj. earlier but doesnt seem to happen.
at this stage am trying to keep myself calm and concentrated.be satisfied and work.
good luck to my friends who r striving hard and counting each day like me.

am disturbed today,
after days(i realized quite late),i should be taking a practic test since its the first time i'll be taking a CBT,to get familar to things and be a little more comfortable on the exam day.
so after a series of telephone calls and inqureys,i landed up confirming my practice session.but it said on confirmation that it'll take 2 weeks for its arrival.after 2 weeks i take the date for practice test and i've stp1 on 25th.
so many things r at stake in home coz of my exam.and i really dont want to postpone from 25th.it just exagerrates anticipation if u r mentally prepared.
ya i cant do anything abt it,the scheduling permit may arrive early it may arrive late.it was a mistake i made up my mind for practice test so late.
lets see.
but 1 thing is sure am not postponing my test by more than a week.i dont know if its worth it or not,but it doesnt suite me.
god bless all and give the courage to face these little hurdles and disappointments
