Hi docnikki....yeah..Indeed..It is a big satisfaction of finishing daily target.
Yesterday-Found a new idea to watch tapes-in a high speed mode-Interesting and also saved some time.I didn't finish my target yesterday completely as I didn't solve questions but listened to one more hour of lecture.Hope that is compensated

Yesterday was a bad one for me...I thought I was so exhausted since nothing went ito me---So,closed the books and went for a good sleep pretty early.....DID NOT FINISH MY TARGET -April 17th.
I should take care that I should not write like this in forum again.I think I wasted precious time yesterady as I could have done some Master's work atleast...BUT,really I was tired.
I made up my mind that I should write here only after I finished my yesterday's target and it took a lot of time.

dear sprint, dont worry some days we feel exhausted and need sleep..never regret on taking rest..I wish you all the best to finish your todays target. Im reversing my sleep wake cycle so it takes 3 days for me to adjust to the new..so last 3 days Ive been not completing my targets because of being drowsy..but still doing my best. You're doing great..keep going!

yesterday DID finish my target ...But was wayward!!!I scored 80% in Kaplan qbook and felt overconfident.i had identified few problems...
*Overconfidence -when I get good score.
*I could get a few time off
*Everybody around me keep on telling that u are working all time---Makes me think OK..I should leave this day!The problem is they don't know what USMLE is!
A shaina says,I have identified these problems and will rectify in future.Two weeks to go for my semester to end----Things are a bit busy!!Neways,let's start today-Already half a day gone due to my TA,LOR and all stuffs.I have deceided to combine medicine with every other subject from now onwards-DAILY.
