I am starting a new thread, in hope of starting a new trend in my studies. for the past month and half, I had to do CS and a very time consuming project(which by the way will end early next week), so I was always either tired or worried or...and I didn't study for CK properly, just finished first round, not that well either. Ok done with nagging ... Today: finished revision of GI (NMS and kaplan), started endo, it's 5 pm now, target for evening: thyroid and parathyroid. & to start UW, even if only 30 qs. p.s. I'll be more than happy if anyone joins me in this journal.

Hey mytime , good luck to you too. Past two days really busy with project, tomorrow is going to be its last day hopefully. And then I can devote myself to ck, today I was thinking of that saying that at times you leave a task without knowing how close you were to success, and I felt I didn't want to do that. sometimes I get a bit worried about my cs result, and it takes so long for the results to come!!!I have to wait till end of june, why do they take so long?!! Ok, I'll be back on tuesday morning, ready to fight again.

I just did my second block of UW, the first one I scored 46% , I was so disappointed, and didn't do any tests for two days. But today I scored 73%, I know it's not perfect, but at least I feel better

I sleep adequately, but sitting behind the table,in silence and alone...oh it just makes me sooo sleepy. Ok every one wish u a perfect studying day.

I am busy with Rheumato. I just talked with a friend who got a 99 and he told me not to put time on NMS, he said kaplan is enough. I guess I am going to do this, because in the past few days NMS has taken me most of the time, it's much more than kaplan and I have to write all the important points...so it is really time consuming. ok, so today's goal is to finish rheumato and 50 qs from UW.

Yesterday I didn't do my goal , just read the answers to qs and that was all, today want to start with preventive med, and then review my UW notes once, I don't want to do step 1 mistake again, I didn't look at my notes till 2 to weeks before exam, and then it was kind of hard to do so, so this time I want to put time every couple of days to read my notes once. ok, enough talking, let's act.

Thanks klimt, hopefully we'll both do great Today had to do some stuff related to my project (is it ever going to end?!!) which took all my morning, then I was so tired the whole afternoon, last night didn't sleep well, so I slep for 2 hours , woke up with a semi-headache and started doing a block of qs, 67%, I want to at least go up to 70s (and then to 80s)...so anyhow it is 5 pm I have to read the answers and then finishe the 10 pages left from emergency med. But I am hopeful

Last day I couldn't study at all, because I have started to work part time for a few weeks again, so it was the first day of work, I intended to get up early in the morning and do a series of qs and read the answers when I come back, but I was so tired. How do you people who work, study afterwards?! and then I had this email regarding my project which said a lot more has to be done, since somethings have changed and...I honestly don't know what to do, I regret doing this project at all. and I can't come out of it at this stage. And I have to study for CK. and I need an excellent score really. I am scared and stressed. But I have to go sit studying right now. yes that's what I am going to do.

I had to devote the weekend to my project, and yesterday I had to go to work. So here I am today, kind of panicked. I have done nothing and I don't have much time and I need a great score.... I should really be focused and determined. Today's schedule: finish cardio, and a block of UW.

Thanks Klimt for stopping by , I have to work much harder to be able to make it. I wish you a great result for all your efforts My mind has been a little foggy in the morning, it's noon now, I think I am going to do a UW block, but probably in tutor mode. And then I'll go back to kaplan books.

Only infectious dis left from Internal, so today I'll try to do half of inf plus a few chapters in peds plus a block in UW. the last time that I did it in tutor mode it was horrible, because a lot of times I come back and think again on questions and with tutor mode you can't do it...I just did 50%, it was so disappointing specially that it changed my general performance a lot...anyhow I'll start working now. Happy studying day everyone.
