Can only finish 2 blocks of kaplan Qbank or even one, don't have time to read any books. Looks slow but I am moving forward. Last month was realy a waste.  But definitely can finish Kaplan Qbank this month.
Keep moving, match08 and feyza. We will all get to our dream place.

I understand how time-consuming is to study the answers of the Qbank, but it is worth it. Keep going my dear friend.

Thanks, docfor99 and feyza for your encouragement.
Ivonne, you are welcome. A lot of times it is a mutual benefit for both sides when friends talk. You gave me good insights and energy too.
OK, now I am realistic for my plan. Just two blocks of Qs to review every day until the end of this month. And when I feel tired, I listen to Kaplan DVD in MP3 form (I just realized I got a 2000 version). It is another time-consuming thing. And 45 minutes, you just can get a little bit information, but it sticks to your mind since they just repeat one certain concept over and over. I know I could not finish those DVD, but that is fine. Qs still my main sources and I believe I could get what I want at last.

hey njcj...thanks stopping by.. your messages are always encouraging.. well, i am going through worse phase of life..i am having some anxiety/depression attacks..so i am taking SSRI now. fr 4 weeks. lets see if i can concentrate for coming days. i am working out atleast for half an hour daily.
i told you guys..i feel bad in last days..then i went to see doctor. and he said i have anxiety attacks and mild depression.. but i am really worried if i should take these meds.. or not? i was going through extremes of anxiety. (palpitations, loss of concentration,, irritated, sleep disturbances)
but now i feel i shouldnt go for SSRI.. cuz it may hurt in other ways??
i dunno wht should i do.
hope u will advice me something good.
thanks

Hi friends, thanks for stopping by. I told myself I will log on after I finish my kaplan Qbank reviewing. But today I could not resist it to say hi to you, so here I am. I am still working on the kaplan Qbank, no time for anything else.
Neuroblastoma, docfor99,Ivonne, nany, bhanusupriya and match08, let's work hard for it. I feel like this exam is not about whether you are smart or not, whether you have a good memory or not, it is about focus, dedication and persistence. Enjoy your study, friends.

hi njcjzy,
Well we seem to be working on the same lines., trying to complete q bank. I completed 58% of q bnk and have only 5 days left to complete the 40 %. Lets see if i can do it. Still have surery, cardio, renal, neuro and Gi left. Haven't been able to log on because i am so tired by the time i come back from work and then have to take care of kids and household stuff. I have been barely managing to do the q bank and so i thought i will try and log in after i am done. But yeah had to see where everyone was.
catch you later then. good luck with completing QB. match08

Anura, docfor99, feyza, ivonne, neuroblastoma, match08, thanks for stopping by. I was not studying very hard the last few days, instead, I was lying on the bed because of a severe lower back pain. 
Hi friends, actually I am so lack of self-descipline now that I am thinking to have a partner for the exam.
Anyone interested in being a policeman of mine and I be yours, drop me a note.
