Dear Sis Goodgirl,
Thanks a millions. I got it.
Your name say it " Goodgirl".

If any other in your post, if old link of dl, any of good to review one let me know & do send, post again. I wish I could be genius at the scanner , so can share my books I have.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.nodnodnod

Yes, better sleep before mid night. Since study been up later & later now no good, next day no clear mind & start later & later.
Like now latest , last night was up till 4-5 am. But not productive much like till 12 am---to 1 am then 2 am , then that the most productive. But later been 3 to 4 am, good if only few days here & there, not consecutive.
So now try to sleep early , start early.

Pl do remind me if near mid night. Do guide me the schedule & which Books, Q to go for in the must & references.

I AM VERY PROUD OF YOUR BRAVERY & ADMIRED YOU & YOUR STAMINA
re ; you START & almost done the most difficult subjects, Neuro, Biochem, peek in Pharm.

Thank you for your wish too & same to you.
GL., Happy & Productive Study to Goodgirl, Me, Keepgoing, Prep4,& All.
May we get the best week end study & many more to come !!!

Hi Swe, how is everything? Where you able to do something today? I can not believe you stayed up till 5 am ! Back in the med school I could do it too, but now with the todler, I can not afford to do it. My son wakes me up at 7.00 am with the words '' Wake up, mommy. The sun is out."

How is Anatomy? This is the only one subject I did not do. It's like I'm avoiding of it. Feel like it would be just a memorisation for me... Are you doing just Kaplan for it. Or also somthing else?

Hey here is a link for some downloads, but be carefull to many sources could be harmfull and just confusing.

http://www.medicalheaven.com/

Take care for now.

nod And study good ! Hey last Q, what do you think, when will you take an exam? I'm so confused, can not make a date.

Dear Goodgirl,

Stay late does not means productive some time, but hope will be very productive in next time.Lucky, my son does not get up early.But still 8 am is wake up time for every one, then if 5 am bed time, have to catch up few hr. only after 8;30 am for 2 to 3 more hr.. do not need to, but thought better sleep more for long term health.But 2or3or4 am
bed time, no more bed time after 8am awake for the day till 2 or later am bed time.Funny , med school, I sleep more[ 7 to 8 hr. total], except near & during exam[ even still sleep more than now] , cause need good sleep for learning, concentration, focusing.
May be USMLE is big pressure on us.

Anatomy, kap only, with refere; BRS or HY or both.What books will you use for anatomy?
What books, Q you are using for all your subjects?
Me, all will be kap, with referen for different books for different subjects.
Check my earlier , 1st post my plan, & books, Q to use.

Exam, loves to be May, June, but no fixing yet.
May be summer [check my 1st post here], cause though study was good at start, now lagging with Fm , Em, Urgent friends call for help re exam, medical career, etc, also still collecting the books.
Today went DT to pick up books, so just got FA, Golj RR, Robbins R. today. Last week not all books were there, so did not get all till today.

Sis, could are call you GG as short form. Let me know.
I do have bad day , later of the day, so we both must have wake up from the bed on the wrong side today Saturday.like banana in bajama children TV show. grinnodnod

Happy for you to going to have you hubby back safe & sound.nodcool

Re; your exam date, you'll know when you're ready, can answer almost all Q, kaplan right. After, some go for exm
1/ right away or
2/after
1 more month or 2 to 3 more or 5 to 6 more depends if , not ready or sure or want more repeats, review. Any way around, all of them get high marks, of course, more well prep , more review leads 90 & more. But still if no progress in understanding or knowing more in detail/depth, do not think should review & postpond exam any longer.
In that case might be either know enough , good/ ready for exm or need to study different way, different or more books.
But that is my point of view only. So keep on studying, do not confuse, or think abt it. When the time come, you knows.

People, friends, relatives will tell you go ahead NOW, but you are the only one know when,if you study well with clear, open mind with no pressure to decide when.
Do it right, risking no pass or very low mark is not worthed unless you are recent, not long ago grad, has green card, even better USA or canadian med grad. Has friend's friend, not long ago grad, low pass, 1st attempt, go with J in Fm residency. But there is contact, refer by MD, US citizen. Wish we all have those contacts. But I don't, but also no fear, will get as good as possible, to get the residency.

Long mail, sorry.See 3 am, I'm not studying, but OK, doing good for good friend, sis like you. So my mental set good for today studying.
OK , get to read, study more.

GL,Happy productive studying, keep it up
nodnodnod
ps. TV , just do not turn it on at the beginning, if it is on, turn it off. Hide the remote, turn TV off from TV. With remote, always flipping the channel, you know, reflex &human mind, which we need for exm to check the right answer every time after reading the Q with good fast thinking.grinnodraised eyebrownodrolling eyesnodwinksmiling facenod

Dear Journal,

Last week how I was starting sick is a lesson for me ,& all.
Feb. 12 Monday, working too hard, just drink a lot of fruit juices, sandwich as breakfast, lunch only few bite of bread, that leads to the nausea, vomitting, gasy tummy with pain, sick & abdominal, epigastric pain. Since have to stay still & just no juice, no fruit, no solid food to calm the GIT. On warm drk, soup, soft food.Have to take a lot of med, OTC , small frequent meals.
So sis & friends, DO NOT FORGET TO HAVE THE GOOD HEALTHY WARM MEAL IN THIS COLD WINTER DURING STUDYING.
I'm still recruiting, pulling my energy together, cause with eating late for days then forgetting to eat for few days with, one day only ,no regular meal & too much v8 drk knocked me out. After 1 week me going into starting recovery, then son got flu, v. sick. Then you're already just sick, still weak, so I just easily got the virus flu, cold, stomach flu from daily winter city people .disapprovalsadshockedshaking headconfusedmad

Any way, much better . Thanks to wishes of"Get well soon" by friends, KG, MT.nod
2am. Will reply to all sis, friend in next post.

KG, my 1st read was looooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggg ago, by the time every one has NMS, pre test. All texts . I still keep them all , but not read anymore.
The 3 new books, not in my plan few yrs ago. But recent last few yrs, 99er, to 90er scoring ginius , all read them either all or some, so i have to read them. Now I in love with some of the books, so will see.
By the way thnx for reminding the too many books, good & bad. What is your delimma?

Now adays speaking of too many books cannot beat/compare to so many unknown Q, lecture notes, books, copies, texts, e books, dl, CD, DVD from here , there, people to people. Boy, clean my shelves yesterday, took whole day to organized. see same stuff esp in disc, CD more than one.
So will not clean the books, notes, texts. lecture notes from center I wrote. Will just graps each subj, notes , Q , one by one when study , just to save time of cleaning, organizing.
Have not & will not organized the save webs, stuff on PC too !!!!!!
