hey Kity: Thanks. yeah FA is making tonz of difference not to mention Goljan HY.

  #706

So I after not to bright scores at the NBME I have decided to re-read and cram the super scorers. Namelky Physio Pharmac and Path.

I will be sticking to Kapplan notes for Pathology because after my first reading og Goljan and a gazillion readings of theKLN, I think the KLN with yield more points for the exam because of the direct information that is there while Goljan had made it easier to make associations. I am done with making associations. After all those questions one gets a feel of what happnes where and how and why. Now is the time for me to start getting nit picky and scoring some serious points.

I will be conquereing Goljan high yield and FA in the next 4 days and take NBME form 2 on friday.

I plan to revise the first 9 chapters from Path KLN
Physio:GI, general topics, Excitable tissue +/- Peripheral circulation.
Pharmac: General principles, Anti cancer, hematology and toxicology.

Of course do questions interspersed with each.

So let the day begin. I will be around your journals. been a while since I said hi to everyone. Hey Paheli..this is your official Hi to you. Thanks for your PM again.
