SHS ,
Calm down 1st, you said it already ... recall problem , so read again , do not rush the exm till new unseen kap Q bank score well 75% at least to score high .
Also if too anxious will get brain block so cannot recall though .
But now take time off to enjoy central London or any in country or even just dance with music at home for few hr or days , while weather is good . Reboot your mental enengy then back to book prompto sis .
May be as a change , go sight seeing too on train , or by car .
Re; your Q for your hubby , he is in best shape, with 90 + marks ?? , or not , UK experiences, even better still in practice currently, he should apply 2008 match if he done both st 1, 2, then Cs can be done in this yr with result back on time for match .
If want H visa also sit st 3 in Jan or Feb latest more or less, depends his prematch offer prg allowed . Let him focus his application, you focus on your study , do not let it distract you cause has so many frinds ends up even after ECFMG certified , no more career pursuit after the hubby got residency then even after hubby in attending.
Some even not sit, prep for exm any more, do not blam them or do not have any , no look down to them too.
But what I like to say is life could be like that some time , so try to catch him in next yr at least ... if he'll go for 2008 match, you aim for 2009 or while he is in residency for your match, unless you do not mind either stop your residency dream or you both do not mind stay apart in case your residency will be in different or far place from his residency or attending . this is what happen to one of my good friend .
Alot others also not trying exm, though some are ok, some still want to but cannot due to all family, children etc in life & hubby's attending is settle down at city where IMg residency is not that possible etc.
SHS , I just tell the facts, does not means you might be like that, just to let you know there is true facts like that could happen , so if you & both of you really want to have you be in residency too is, you try to focus study , if cannot take a few break & ask his help, support.
Usually if you go to clinic/surgery with him at there , it usally boost upp your spirit if you play safe there & be feel like a Dr at there too .
Once a Dr is a Dr , only is you're in practice now or not , that's all .
One of my dad's opthalmologist & my GP always call us as Dr. so & so to me & hubby from the start though knowing that we're not in practice .
Also at kaplan they call us Dr. so & so too .
Sis dress well daily , like a Dr b4 study then , sit & study well .
When in need of chat , help, is not good to hide, better speak out 7 ask for help at your journal or ours or open new title at support forum.

Hey I just see that you post 3 times , so hope your out already & you're back to calm & study .
If need to do more UW get it later , but now review all kap, golj , FA , UW, kap Q bank, Q book .
Then after the review & ready, try at least one form of NBME after liking your Qs level in Q book, bank, UW . If ... NBME ok , go ahead, not then study, review more, be patient, & persistant .

Hi Sahashra. I would strongly suggest that you look into this thread by Askdoc: http://www.prep4usmle.com/forum/thread/34492
Maybe you already have! He has given every suggestion on how to improve.
And also if you can listen to Dr. Daugherty's tips on exam taking strategies uploaded by praying4a99.
http://www.prep4usmle.com/forum/thread/56630
Very useful. I think you are on the right track, it is only a matter of repitition and recall. So you will do well, do not panic now, and don't let yourself get distracted from your goal!
Good luck!

hi,
actinya i heard those stratagies they r good.
thank you shwe hope i took this week off.
iam doing goljan revision slowly without stress now iam able to recall.
and previously i thought i have to listen once again but iam able to read and answer the questions
this week i will try to revise each day one subject
i dont know how hard it will be
i will first concentrate the unknown things, things to be mastered, i will do reading gaps.
my time table
sterday--- saterday---- i was able to do goljan general but still left with little gaps becos iam feeling very sick
today i wokeup early did washing cleaning house add some room freshner and started my reading.
i dont have any unknown thing in systemic giljan
so i will start with rbc wbc which i need to master
i will look into respiratory some histoplasmosis all those things
i will concetrate on cns and skin
i will go through 36 pages high yield once becos it will give me good overview
i hope i will master atleast rbc wbc i will be happy
MONDAY---micro --- unknown viruses--- i have to invent a method in viruses to read easily
and to grasp the things asking in exam
master bacteria, fungi, hepatitis b high yield,
TUESDAY--- BIOCHEM
iam familiar with biochem
but i still yet to master fat and amino acid metabolism
iam very confident dat i will finish molecular biology in 2 hours
cho 1 hour , i will try to do genetics if i can i will do goljan genetics along with it
but when i think of physiology i will get exhausted tired everything
i dont know what i read what i listened i did that sub when iam at most stress i got a fear of dat
i dont know i should be doing physio reat of the week
i hope i will be able to overcome all these things and land up uw next weeek with loads of confidence
ok all the best to all

hi,
iam doing not very good.
i completed goljan 36 high yield its worth to revise it.
sterday i read biochem which iam not sure thats lipid and protein metabolism.
here in uk i had a talk with a girl who is writing plab.
i think i have to take those things also as a back up.
so i put my entire effort in step1.
i have to put my soul in it because i have to do alot of things later
i have to get my carreers inspiration from step1.
i will get an attachment after this.
i have to learn driving and ielts.
then i have practise alot to clear cs at first attempt.
and then i will takw plab1 and ck then plab2.
later i will take a holiday to my backhome.
again tjhe struggle starts, as i dont know i have to learn somany skills for the interview and overall body language and personality.
for all thjis dont you think every minute is a diamond for me?
but sterday i had a long evening chatting with my husband.
i wish i would go to library.
ok i will do this.
god give me strength every moment.
i will do physiology general topics because iam week in those things.
i have to covrer those first.
u people will u recommend me brs or kaplan?
iam done with the kaplan one reading but didnt able to get anything
thank you for helping me in this long journey.

hi sahashra.. i have seen you around but never had chance to write to you..
we all have the list to do lists forr oursleves... but dont be hard on yourself & it will not lead you anywhere.. sleeping extra somedays wont hurt as long as you make the remaing time count...
