Hey Acintya: Good morning. Ive seen that schedule before but it banks on the fact that u will only read FA. I am doing Kaplan notes. I just have to buckle up a bit.

Hey it is one thing to make good study plans and another to stick to them. Iam struggling not because I am working hard and there is a lot to do.I am very distracted. I have even lost my comfortable buffer of time. I really need to zip up the over drive. I have no clue how I end up passing an entire day in front of my books with no out put.it is like I need my mum with a cane next to me.Seriously!
BnB: Thanks for dropping by. I am happy you feel motivated. I shall try and take some of that motivation and use it on me too.
Kitty: NO Today. I promise.

medocuk, cheer up. maybe you are just too tired. we all have good days and bad days. Even if today you ended up doning nothing nothing at all, i am sure this wouldn't kill your good score. As long as you keep up a positive attitude and have a efficient day tomorrow, tomorrow after tomorrow, you always have chance to win back the time you lost today. When i feel down, I always tell myself: just stick to it for one more day, just one more day. Then tomorrow i will be able to stick to it for another "one more day".

You know its good that you are pushing yourself to do better! It will get better... I am sure of your abilities!! You are a winner!! After that break today with meeting a friend, you will be refreshed and tomorrow will be great!
BnB: Great idea! building on your strategy, what works for me is even smaller chunks....just "for the next 1 hour, please concentrate!" or even 15 minutes....that way I keep trying to focus

hey medocuk I am going to follow your routine now.. will try to do KLN in days you have in your scedule but minus Question.. one thing at a time works for me..
dont worry about loosing a weekend day.. I too didnt study at all today.. but it really gives me a sense of control on myself.. by taking a break I think I am controlling step 1 studies not the other way round so it works for me.. voluntary breaks are better than the force dbreaks when your mind plays tricks with you... so weekdays are starting .. lets get ready again for the hard work.

Yesterday I was feeling very low. I haven't been achieving anything and these mini breaks don't help me at all. I lose all momentum and I am pathetic Seriously some times I am. Even for the narcissist I am I know I am pathetic so you can imagine how really pathetic I am..Ok now to get to the point..
So I called a dear person and she got right back to me for the rescue.Talking to her helped.But then I also decided to meet up with some friends of mine from my past life.
I ended up spending the whole day instead of the hour lunch I had initially planned.But I have to confess it was totally worth it. I spent time with 3 year Psych residents in philly. It was nice to see them have achieved so much, doing so well. they were so positive for me so encouraging and totally reminded me of where I want to be. They reminded me of who I used to be.Motivated, determined and a good kid.
I feel very rejuvinated. I am going to get cracking people. you all have a nice day.

Good for you. Mine is all crumbled review still trying to get used to every minute counts type of reading..

2nd to MDU, Anu re motivation, eye opener by same class or school mate in med fields , now at big shot or residency or trying v. good to get into, already in the MD USA .
They encourage you, also tell you to quite job or do Pt to do the exm asap , that is even from the much junior batch that supporting you moral, books, etc .
What a wonderful world !!!
Also just visit frineds at kaplan attend or not , also give you the vibe to study hard , believe in yourself girls & , friends , BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF , if you really want it , you can make it .

Anuba: I failed then. I restarted my studying this May. Have been slow, but now revving it all up. I am determined to do well.
Shwe: Yeays you are back How is it going for you?
I just did patho questions. 22/50 with explanations. I am not disappointed at all. I know I am weak in Patho and I know I have to concentrate more when I do it. I have also read all the explanations so I am feeling really super.
Will come back with next tests performance soon.
today I plan to catch up on all my questions. I havent been doing enough questions inspite of the huge question bank that I have.

medocuk, Glad to see you are grasping back your energy. Sometimes we need motivation to head up. This weekend I did the same thing, calling some of my seniors and juniors who came to the States. Seeing where I stand, what I need to confront, and why I am here with those things are also vital for me.
I am too doing Path Qs, 100 Qs/days with the hope that I can finish my UW by July 20th and then I can put my first step on NBME. We can do at the same pace, if you are interested...
Reading your prep makes me feel as if I am reading a great struggling doctor's diary. Indeed!
All the best

Huyniid: I am glad you are all motivated and are ready to get this beast under control. You are right, I am battling a "great struggle " But then so are we all.
Edie: You are not allowed to give up unless u have a real good reason to do so. You have to wait until your results tomorrow and then we all can decide eh?
Shwe: Always a pleasure to see you around. so anatomy it is eh? me too. Plan to complete neuro today.
