I finished mgt, fgt from patho yesterday and did lots of mcqs from q bank ,qbank is fine, but USMLEWORLD is scary.I am using it more as a study tool .Today my target is respfrom physio [try to finish in 2 hour] then from patho , iwill doing margins from goljan ,new book and then all mcq s from q bank and then usmle world.
Trying to maintain a regular exercise routine as well,have started to walk for 20 minutes daily[i skip it sometimes tough]disapproval
I have revised kidney from qbank and i am afraid to do it from USMLE WORLD, cause I might freak out.

hi doctja,

your doing a good job here, my exam is close to yours and am still doing my 2nd reading with uw and kqb as well, but its really slowing me down but i dont think i have any option.keep it up and good luck to both of us.

Hi Thanks for the encouragement.I am also doing the two banks consequetively,and yes it can be exhausting.Your task is very challenging cause you work as well[i THINK SO]. i FEEL LIKE EXTENDING MY EXAM BUT I know I can do it if I focus well on the right things.Thanks again for the encouragement and best of luck.

hi,

unfortunately am not working either but am working against ma body ight now if you know what i meannod having my first baby in a couple of months so studying for me has been very challenging, some times all my body needs is sleep but i have to pull myself up,the thought that i would have more time to my baby if i get this over and done now keeps me going.

so what was your aim for today and where you able to accomplish it,mine was to go through my cvs physiology and also the usual 50 uw and 50 kqb, so far it s looking good, have been able to finish up the physiology, hope to start solving the questions and hopefully look at my medessential and FA in the cvs before i go to bed.hope you dont mind my reporting in your journal as well,trying to keep track of my progress.

back to my books now , hope your with urs.good luckgrin:

I just came back from my walk,my studies are a bit behinf schedule .I got fed up of patho and did biochem instead.Its very volatile,hope it sticks in my head this time.I will finish hardy weinberg and tranlocations before retiring for the day.

Dear sss sss
I like it that you post in my journal.Please continue to do so.So how is it going for you?Take good care of your self.Take multivitamins daily and dont strain your self.Best of luck

well in the process of solving some uw questions this weekend i went into a pre exam depression, reall its so depressing when you think you nderstand something only to be faced with a question related to it and you completely flunk it, had to take a break from my books(my husbands advice) guess it worked cos i am up once more,have not been able to move any further with my qbank questions, seems like 24hrs aint enough for me, well just like you am a day behind schedule,plan today is to finish cvs system, read it up in FA and medessential,plus at leat a set of 50questions.of course all that will be when i wake up cos its past midnight this way.

  #11

least i forget doctja, thanks for the advice, i will try to do that.and you know what i totally agree with you about biochemistry, have finished it twice now but sometimes i wonder if its there,shaking head i hope it is.nod

okay take care and please try to finish yp your aim for today, time is too short to be running behind our schedule.good luck


  #12

Its me again after quite some while.I had to postpone the exam due to some personal reasons, so I am in a very odd state right now, cant focus at all.I was supposed to start Anatomy today and revise the limbs but just could not focus.Did not feel like watching a movie either so out on a drive.Hope to get my concentration back soon.


  #18

will try to extend exam to 14 or 15 of may.I am very worried cause I know May is a busy month and I hope to get a new date as soon as possible,incase I dont get a date of my choice.

  #19

Hi friends
Had a busy day, revised the limbs and plan to do neuroanatomy tomorrow.I will have dinner now and then revise the pictures of limbs.I have to renew my account of usmle world as well, will be doing that in a couple of days time.
