1- Not studying seriously until THE moment.
2- Stressing out wastes time (suffering helps noone)
3- Reading only instead of memorising
4- Taking Q-banks online and then only doing 50%...Plain procrastination
5.Never take UW online until fully prepared for exam. Wastes time. Took it twice n never completed.
6. Taking nbme 1 month before exam WITHOUT revising stuff, bad score....low spirits...u'll end up not giving the exam.
7. Wasting a one time fee 
8. Realising in the LAST month what REALLY had to b done
9. A word of advice: if u listen to the lectures when u'r tired n cant go on...Do it in fast track..I listen to it at the speed of either 1.50 or 2.00 . Works wonders...lectures finishes in half time and is VERY effective.
10. Always being behind schedule and not studying properly....with a severly compromising husband whose schedule is go to univ. at 8:00 come back at 6:00(phD student) ...comes back n cooks, cleans, .....always in good spirits. AND acts as my personal trainer in strength as well as mental training.
..There cannot b a woman alive other than me who misuses her freedom as LEISURELY as I do.
I should b hanged for procrastinating and wasting time BEFORE. I now study 15hrs a day with my exam 1 month away. finally realised a few things I should have done months before.

sports news for me...browsing news (decided to ban all websites).......not listening (sometimes) to Goljan dada while commuting or travelling...
guys, whoever has kids - it is impossible (if possible, it takes long time to study) to manage kids. Help is a must. Not to discourage but a reality!! Me and my wife used to work fulltime with 1 yr old. She stopped working now and the only thing i do is kiss him few times.

here it comes...
1. this forum
2. postponing - same feeling - i can do it tomorrow - that becomes next day - next day
3. friends and relatives
4. my PhD - can't afford more than 3 hrs per day to USMLE
5. just reading and not memorizing
6. being stuck on a sentence and daydreaming - i do it at least 5 times in an hour each for about 3 minutes - there thats a quarter of the whole time 
7. this forum (its addicting) (i know i started and ended the list with this forum)

yep, this forum is definitely one of the culprits, looks like. i study away from home the whole day, i leave at 8, and am back by 7-ish. so i don't get access to p4u during that time. i start thinking about it though from 4pm onwards. by the time i get home, i'm having serious withdrawal symptoms, and i lunge straight for my laptop, [a little like gollum and the ring!!] and everyone at home knows to stay away from it, give me my time with it, and not interfere! then i catch up with the day's news, info and qns from my friends here, and my heart and breath rates normalize.

paheli, before i would never have said this on this forum but since i've already listed something odd that i do n' have bared my soul (like checkin my email 10x a day) i shall tell u this...*L*....n' my husband will kill me if he reads this...hehe but it's not a blessing for either of us to be studying together for the same exam....he's the very relaxed kind, i'm not....he likes to worry about what to eat n' cook n' fix odd things in the house, i don't (i just eat food, n' feel guilty bout it later on) n' since we're both stressed, alotta fights...
i'm not a good person to study w/, i like studyin by myself...
n' i'll report another thing i waste my time on, all the while listing odd things that I do....*LOL* i'm obsessed w/ pluckin my eyebrows... there u go...

Looking for the new avatar, just love to look at all the pictures different from the medical ones. And trying to find one witch would describe better my everyday changing attitude toward the usmle preparation (sight ).
Like now I waisted like 20 min finding a new avatar, and on the end I sticked to old one.
