Love it ! Stud ........I see I am rubbing off on you!

YES WE LOVE USMLE AND RIGHT NOW STEP1 (Stud, Atul, Shwe, match2010, simon73,Target, Novak, Jena99, Pursuit, Unique, Zade)nodnod Milee Paheli loving Step 2 CKnodnod right now. Genbot Oldkid -loving Step 3nod Arlete - finished loving all stepswink

Today was a low profile day....severe spasms of erector spinae muscles -probaly key board or posture! Hot pack cold pack not helping much. Did a couple of pages in micro first aid after getting tired of Kaplan.

My target for 20th is gone and I am still behind ! raised eyebrow OK TARGET superspeed from tomorrow- active learning - trying to retain everything as if it is my last read- quickly revise and atleast take NBME on 30th as scheduled! I AM CLOSER THAN I THINK (Stud it was Joel osteenl's message today at the sunday sermon).

Good Morningsmiling face

for viruses, just read them once i would say from FA...and HIV from kaplan...then leave it and keep coming back to them later...you would learn a lot by doing questions....it's difficult to learn them in one go...focus on HIV, Hepatitis (FA+ Qs) and 2 tables in FA...know the gp names,,,DNA or RNA,,,enveloped or not,,,positive aor negative sense,,,vaccines....etc

have a great daynod

see you soonwink

Good morning folks !

This is the morning news edition nod Target slept at 2 and got upa t 10.30 grin She is fresh and ready to blast off 50 First Aid pages with her buddy Stud to study !!! She also will try to tackle behavioral chapters (AMAP) and other chapters in Micro. She wants to listen to Goljan too! and those challenging Q at Uworld.............can she do it all............we'll see at the end of the day! Yes if she is a SUPER WOMAN (as one of the readers acclaimed!).

Anyway enough jokes, g@uri (or is it gauri - I am going to call you that!) -thanks for going thru my journal and motivating me! Good to see first thing int he morning. I dont know how I manage everything........GOD GIVES ME STRENGTH for sure! I strongly believe it is all in the mind.........if you think you are strong and handle anything that comes your way.......JUST BRING IT ON is all you say. But I should admit about a year ago I was so overwhelmed that I was under so much responsibility -had hardly any motivation to do things . BUT all I did was change my thinking .........I thinkk I can do everything......I have enough time for everything.....and there is .......believe me! We are more capable than we think.

No that was too much for a first time visitor isnt it stud! I dont want to make her disappear from dropping by my journal!

STUD: I think first aid pages can be divivded into easily crammable pages and intense pages. Like vignettes youprobably can finish in under 5 min bvut classification of virus for eg need 15 min. DONT THINK 50 pages. Think 5 pages and master it - say in 1 hours - YOU CAN DO that ! Say even 30 min or even 1 hr doesnt matter but you should know the page cold!

Study with an attitude - I can answer any question that come in those 5 pages! Then move on to the next 5 pages ...do it 10 times and you end up with your target !(that's me:nodsmiling face

EVERYBODY WHO WANTS TO JOIN THE 5 page challenge in FA are welcome!

I like to tick of in the front page where it gives off page nos under different subjects vs organ system - say anat ( 3 pages in RS) tick off - 5 pages in CVS (tick off) it is lilke a game and keep ticking anat till you are done! Then start withp hysio maybe.........or do it system wise vertically down (I think!) whichever works for you. GOOD LUCK CHEERS!

The game is on! Tell me how you are going to it and we can quiz each other atthe end of the day!
