DAY 49

Nothing exciting has happened, just working in Nepro that btw Does kaplan forgot about the glomerulonephritis? or am i missing a book ?because IM kaplan doesn'n have it.

Today's goal
  • Finish Genitourinary and electrolytes UW and study the answers.
  • Re-read my own notes OBGYN and FA(I am not watching the DVDs since I feel strong in this topic) and maybe do a block of UW.

It was a long break but took care of christmas decoration, dinner and most importantly i did the electrolytes block. Best part my score was ok 65%. i run out of time so i didn't have time to re-check answers. ok so far i just need to do Ophthalmology, ENT,OBGYN and biostadistics(this last one i will leave at the very end, to memorize formulas and because i hate it!) and will be done with UW(first time of everything and some chapters second time such as GI, endocrino and rheumato).

So, i will work with UW(second time til the end of this month along with FA and watch some relevant Kaplan DVDs(Cardiology for sure) and by January second give NBME form 1(because the 01/01/08 i am celebrating the new year big time!!!!).

Will jump up onto ENT questions(31 UW) after a quick hit of Secrets ENT. Let's go!!!

DAY 48

Thanks Feyza, strongly believe that hard work is paid off, because i am really working my a$$ off he,he. You are so sweet for asking God the miracle, I appreciate it!!!!!. 90 plus 9 will make me happy for sure, that is not a secret desire...it is official gringringrin

Ok, starting late today after a good night of nice sleep(way too much) and having breakfast(made by hubby that btw i have to thanks for his love, support and understanding). So, today will work with the 3 per 3 formula again:
  • 3 hours for UW explanations(electrolytes and ENT)
  • 3 hours for re-reading OBGYN own notes, FA and probably the DVDs related to Fetal evaluation(stress test and so for)
  • 3 hours for UW(3 blocks OBGYN)

DAY 47


NJCJZY: Thanks. You are right sometimes to study the explanations takes for ever and i if i want i can spend the whole day studying just one block (has happened to me before). I am trying to stick to that schedule but yesterday fell behind a bit so today i will make it up.


FEYZA: Thanks buddy, just pushing hard, no matter the score, no regrets since i am trying to do my best.


Today's goal
Finish the last part of the yesterday's goal.
