Thanks for visiting me ck mates. Weekeds are a very hard time to focus, specially if we have family around but I found it useful to do questions in a tutor mode that it is not my style at all, I always do timed mode but I have no choice at this point so i can stay in the living room while they are watching tv and "be part of the family", sorry it is not quality time...but I don't want to stop. Enjoy your studies

I also do qs on tutor mode sometimes, it's not bad... they're usually helpful when I find it hard to keep focus. They boost your attention span.
Enjoy your Family Sunday, as well!!!

SUMMARY
BW: Agree it keep me focus but I use it just as the last resource because the idea is to master time management. Well I couldn't do much regarding ck on Sunday it was a family day...
Neuro: Thanks for stopping by, do your best and you will get a great score.
Supriya: To be honest I didn't start it yet so i am in zero . I need a big kick. I started to study in mid june then I decided to go for CS first. It took me a month to take care of CS and a couple of weeks to deal with the post-exam flashbacks then re-started CK in mid August then a full time job came up that is taking hours of my ck prep so basically I spent 2 months a half in CK with a full time job and I am done with IM( some chapters second read and UW), Psyquiatry(first read and UW) and Surgery(first read and UW), so basically I need to work in OBGYN and PEDS and then consolidate everything doing Kaplan Qbank and take the NBMEs to be 100% confident of a great score. All I need is to use my time wisely and FOCUS. I believe that I can get a 99...I believe in myself...We can do it!!!!!

Hi ,
Look everyone moving good .
IV , keep it up , u study with FT job already, so new job better pay that the motivation.
Hey girl, learn to put face on in split sec but still beautiful , practice, practice .
Some times the train is not crowed & all girls , you can put ur face on or have ur breakfast on the way to work, while ur i pod or any mp3 phone with ur any favorite songs in usmle or just songs on . or can read secret on the way too .
But seriously , big pay check, less hr work, my dream of job . So if work stick with that , if not then switch to old or better new one, with situation allow u to study well too .
Some times money is not every thing [ hey girls, boys, man .. do not shoot me, my dream to MD here is to do job I love , saving life while get decent income ] .
Ok , back to me tough land studying , am still also work , study , family & oh be pretty beautiful what ever u call b4 arriveing at work   .
By the way like to say Hi to friends here .. like , BW , FZ , multifact [MF] etc , all .
IV....... keep it cool, beautiful, work, family & studying all in balance .

Agree with you, but while becoming a MD we have the pay the bill and for that, money is everything if not i will stay in winter without heating........no,no I don't want that. Michigan is very cold in winter. All the best and we will keep i touch.
Njcjy: Good luck to you too
Well just making the last notes regarding surgery from UW. Got 54, 71, 63 and 64%. Very interesting chapter. Since FA doesn't have an specific surgery chapter I made notes everywhere in the book that BTW is saving me time. Just realized that at least 60 to 70% of the UW answers are in FA that means that it is worth reading that book. Happy study day everyone!!!

Not even one , 2 jobs , one FT , hope old is PT , so you will not over kill ur self.
But IV , it's best call keep old one in touch, yes, u never know . Was going to tell u that if new is too much though good money , less hr on paper [ but reality more hr acoording to ur post with new things to learn, that's not good ] , on the long run u might want ur old job back as FT .
Anyhow I thought Minnesota is very cold but Michigan is cold though warmer than northern friends .
Anywhere in here north amaerica , most places are cold except sunshine states I guess, even though CA ppl will say it's cold in winter .
re ; money , oh well , we all like to have to have enough to pay bill , heat , air condition , etc., I do not want my friend study in cold without heating , so ur allow to work as far as study is ok & health , life too .
Keep it up IV, u really is a good model of studying with FT jobs , that showing doable . Thanks for the inspiration .
Will keep in touch .

Shhope: Hi, thanks for visiting. I am not working in two jobs i just worked about four hours in my previous one because i wanted to know if they miss me, the real reason is because i am thinking to work for them again as soon as me new company will put me on trainig again because i simple don't want more staff to study...what i have is enough...USMLEs are hard for God's sake. All the best to you
Nany: hey girl enjoy the little time you got for your studies and use it wisely. Good luck!!!!
