hi dr.luck Thanx for the information.I have gone thru Crush and FA ...Did crush long time ago and just finished FA. I think FA does has extra information and in more systematic way..... Crush skips lots of topics which are there in FA. hope it helps.. btw when is your exam? Your journal is really inspiring I go thru it often when I am low.. Ok, happy studying!

GOODLUCK FOR THE NBME Dear Dr. LUCK. I just went through your diary and felt very motivated. You stick to ur plan no matter what I have 6weeks from now so now i understand how fast i need to be and how slow actually I was. maybe i will start my diary too to keep myself motivated and committed. its a nice way. ...Is this your first attempt of UW? and did you read FA and Crush and secrets 3 of them. From where can I know which topics are good in which of the 3 review books so taht i dont waste time reading all 3 for all subjects. thanks and all the best for NBME as well as real exaam too

well yesterday,..I realised that for some people (including me)...step 2 prep means more hard work than an average person....so here I am today with more determination than ever...b/c I won't give up!!!!.....so now my plan is to do another read of my notes & crush & kaplan & then go for another form of nbme & see if i've improved (I hope plz I do..Amen)....& God forbid if not, then I'll delay my exam. So today's target is to get done with crush & then go for IM from tomorrow!! Dear God....I understand that u test those people the most whom you love the most...I hope I'm one of them & you are just testing me this way b/c you know how much passing all my steps & practising as doc matters to me....so please give me the strenght & courage to stay focused on my goal & get a steller score...AMEN

hey docnikki...what i did in my 1st read was i checked out all the 3 sources of books & just marked the topics that weren't in kaplan so now whenever i go thru FA...I just do the topics that aint in kaplan which mostly r the 1st 2-3 pages as those are the initial pathophysio kinda questions & it's been a while for me that i did step 1 so it just helps to refresh my step 1 knowledge. Good Luck......WE CAN DO IT!!!
