Dear feyza ,

Those little pipes are simply called straws . smiling face

I know how you feel but please stay strong. Please do not cry and make good use of your "loneliness" . Make books your companions for these days. Even mommies who are not studying , do send their kids to grandma as kids enjoy there , grandma gets a chance to spoil them (grin kidding) and mommy gets some time for herself.

You will be with your son very soon . Then you will forget that you had missed him for these few days but will always remember your step 1 score. Wish you good luck.

Hi Guys, I just found two topics of genetics missing within the kaplan video set, they are population genetics and cytogenetics. Too bad that I didnt check the whole set right after I bought, it has been a while ago. I feel so bad that genetics is my weak topic, the video is a good way to help me with the motivation. Could you tell me where I can buy them individually? Otherwise I have to buy another step 1 package.

feyza.basoglu my heart goes out to you... being the newly-single mother of a five year old, i understand your struggle between USMLE and being a good mother to your precious little boy... you can do both- you will do both... USMLE is as much for him as for you...
He's fine... he is with people who love him...
FOCUS - this jorney can not be gotten unless you keep your eyes on the prize...
Good luck... you have alot of people in your corner!!!

Hi friends,
It is great to be part of your family.Do not get this "oldness" get in the way of achiving your cherished goals. You remain young as long as you have hope. A guy in his 20s is very old when there is no hope for the future.You all can do this.The main thing is to remain focused at all times and you will reach your goal in the end.

By the way I went to medical school prior to 1990s.Married with two kids. Took USMLE last April. THe result is just out. Score 211/87. If I can do You too can do.smiling facesmiling facesmiling facesmiling facesmiling face

thanks alot feyza....really need that...how s it going at yr end....burning out too with UW,done with q bank ..thank god...

  #100

my Q bank is expiring 3 days later and Ive done only % 25 of it...so Im leaving it...Ill cram UW now like crazy ...

Ill do this as baby-face told me : "feyza just leave qbank now and learn FA and UW by heart,give it ur best shot ,beleive me FA has a lot of knowledge and if u know it by heart along with UW no one can stop u from getting 99.My advice is to to use UW as a learning tool and catch the concepts from it ,once u have done UW u will feel more comfortable and trust me u will learn additional things which r not even in kaplan,just give it ur best shot ,and as i have said it b4 last 15 days only FA so u can wrap it up"

hope I dont miss a lot by leaving Q bank...

last 4 days ! and then youll be free as birds ! you ll do great I know that !! keep up wink
