So I did 50 UW questions mixrd tutor mode and I got 56% with the average score being 43% So I am super pleased with myself and wont bother with corrected score.
But I promise if only I was reading correctly I could have got another 6-8 questions right.
I am now going to move onto Hemat and Onc. I hope to do that by 2- 2:30

Before I go, here is a smart question I found at UW. patho..( out of my memory)
A young man has found a scrotal mass on self examination. On investigations you find the mass to be a malignant carcinoma and the patients TSH and T4 levels are raised. What tumor marker would you expect to be raised in this individual.
a. FSH
b. TRH
c. Beta HcG
d. CEA
f. Alfa feto protien.

BHCG and TSH both have the same Beta component in their protien. SO when one is increased the other is increased. Just so you guys know.
I am very freaked out. Acintya tried to warn me about NNL exam experience but I must have mis understood her..I thought she said he said it was very doable..Of course I go to read that Do FA and RR and u will be sorted guys but no..u all have to read his exam experience.. Yeah bet u will lose sleep for a day or two.
Then Edie writes hers. You can just make out one needs to work hard. Really hard. Can some one do it in as much time as i have left. Oh well. I don't know. But I want to give it my all.
All I know is I have a splitting head ache. And what ever..I am going to do some Patho questions and then may be call it a night. Good night for now.

Med, you are doing well going thru UW. They are definintely there on the real thing, as are NBMEs, USMLE CD q's. Kaplan Q's not there word for word, but those concepts are, so when you do Kaplan, go thru them carefully and make notes where needed. As far as Goljan's HY notes are concerned, the parts that he doesn't include in lectures, like genetics, pharm, micro and anatomy parts, those are worth a good going over. Do at least 3 passes of those particular parts of the HY notes. Every anatomy q I had, mostly limbs, is there in the anat HY notes. Commit yourself to FA, moreso than ever before. I recalled FA several times during my exam, so I find my time with it well spent  Especially for micro, pharm and biochem-enzyme def's. Mnemonics in FA all came in handy as well. Keep on truckin', babe!

Hey edie: Thanks for the input. I will do as you say.
I have done 3 blocks of 50 questions each from Path Kaplan CD that I have I got 66% 74% and wait for this 82%. that was just a laugh.
Now I am going to take my patho KLN and FA and go to a park and commit myself to mugging/by hearting/ rattafication of most of my book. I will try and complete everything. I will leave CNS for before my friend comes tom morning.
When I get back I want to revise the NBME form questions. I'll do sets today and do two sets tom.
I plan to do 4 blocks of 50 questions each from UW on Monday. So until Monday FA it is.

Shwe: Thanks girl. I plan to listen to every one intently.
I have just completed reading Immunopathology and genetics. I plan to read CVS, renal and respiratory before I sleep. Also do UW questions.
Will be back after 3 hours with an update.
Weekends are always slow for the journals, but is there anyone who is taking the exam with me. My final date is 17th September.
