MDU, I know exm on 17, Mon day, that is why I say tmr [ Saturday ] then day after tmr [SUnday] then next day [ Monday, D day ] .
By my experinces just found out , I think better relax FEW DAYS AHEAD like at least 3 days [like from tonight Friday night ] b4 any big day , instead of on one last 2 days [ like Saturday night ] to have better fresh, full relax energy on D day .
Sorry sis , if I confused u , my bad, should say ur exm day 17 Monday , but keep calm few dyas ahead .
GL on D day

Good going Med! Now walk with me.
I know you have been through some probable emotional setbacks during your prep lately, none of your own control, but ain't that the way life is? So for now, we'll just wrap up those emotions, worries and concerns in a nice little bundle, and pack it away in a pretty little box, and put this box on the shelf in the closet. It'll be there waiting for you Monday when you get home. And now, we are charged--supercharged! Picture this: Medoc has on her black "Trinity from the Matrix" outfit and is now uploading all Step 1 high-yield facts into her brain  Oh, and a short stop to the martial arts room to upload jijitsu, to combat those experimental q's

HA! Shwe: I'll ask you how much you relaxed before your exam. Trust me i will be cramming and cursing until 12 the previous night. I will take a good night's rest. then I shall submit to the Almighty, but until then I have no relax in my dictionary.

If those UW questions are ones where less than 45% of users got them correct, don't stress them too much.
It's time to streamline concepts. Consolidate your short notes from UW and FA and elsewhere onto 1-2 sheets of paper. Don't do more than 3 sheets. Pick off the ripe apples from that knowledge tree  and add them to the sheet. Faraym made a good point in her EE about knowing the top 10 drugs--pick on her about these and add to your sheet. Look over my cram notes, pick off only what you need and add to your sheets. Calculations for renal, cardio, stats--add these as well. If you don't know them by heart, write them over and over and over til you do, and when you get to the center, write them all out on your dry-erase sheets. If you need me to nag you some more, I'm here

Same here , I came on line for especially u , MDU .
MDU , u can read this post after the D day too . GL on D day .
Do read at least now with the * on at the almost end of this post .
Cramming is different, but relax is another part , I got calm so much , all others always thought I do not study, care about the exm, but I do & with calm I always on top of the world , so becuase I relax, calm, but do read study as I need , but till mid night to compromise the sleep , if my other small exm , not final ... yes, but for final & all usmle , boards uas exm I do not think so for me , need good stamina , full fresh energy on D day with good night good sleep few night ahead especially on the night b4 .
Still u can have last look at some book or notes or sheet for security in set of mind for the exm till last minute, but with calm, relax mind while browse through them or else u will not know what u are reading... that is what I mean if u still like to study till last minute .
* But MDU we all are studying in different style, so if safe go for it to ur mid nt cram , but I still thik last night study till mid night especially in cramming till mid night , I will not do , but after all it's your call your D day .
* Make sure u will b fresh , not sleepy tired for the whole 7 blocks, so will b able to pull out all ur study on time to each qs .
GL
I purposely will post this only after ur D day , since u might not read the long post . But what the heck, to help , give good avice is my intention , so to get it is the others side , your decisoin .

milee: Thanks. I intend to. :d
So I have figured I don't know a gazzillion things. I have tons of things to revise. I have to consolidate all my knowledge as Edie says. even that if done properly probably requires a week. I don't have a week. I don't have a lot of things on my side. I'm not looking for sympathy, Ive had my weak moment yesterday. I reached out to an angel. Get an angel all of u.. It really helps.
But I know this. I have FA. Goljan UW questions. USMLE CD AND NBME stuff. I have today and tom. I have some list of questions that people think are essential. I have 5 years of medical school knowlegde and I have 3 years of being a physician experience. I have food and warmth and i have blessings and wishes and prayers.
I don't even know if I was allowed that weak moment. But here is the gist of my rant. I have more to do and achieve in the next 2 days than simply say I can't do this. I can do more than I know I can.
So I'm going to give it a shot and u shall have a lovely weekend. Cheers!

hey there, dear friend!
sorry, i haven't been around much, have a million things going on, of course not an excuse, but am glad to see that you've gotten through the overwhelming bit, holding the hands of some great people here. on exam day, we can't hold your hand, but you can draw on our collective strength even our collective knowledge[though just edie's would probably be enough!!! my crazy brain may end up throwing some distractors at ya, like it does to me all the time !!! [unintentionally of course]
these ladies have been talking some serious sense here, gurl. please heed. GET ENOUGH SLEEP, and i must stress on the sleep being RESTFUL. you don't want exhaustion dropping on you like a ton of bricks in block 5 or 6. avoid oily, spicy heavy food on sunday and monday.
we are so rooting for you. and i'm gonna be checking back right here till i get to read your EE. just take a moment, look back at your journey, how far you've come, and this is the only darn thing that's separating you from your application this year. step 1 needs to be eliminated, so you can make it to residency next year.
you are 100 yards from the finish line of a marathon, medoc. yes, you're that close. and this is when you have to grit your teeth, give it a final burst of energy, focus purely on your performance come monday and give it all you got.
YOU WILL DO WELL!
