Finally I have decided to start this journal . It has been in the making for a long time. But I could never understand how this will help me. Recently I was again recommended to start one and has been thinking about it seriously. Well here I am an old graduate married mom who works full time and has three children. But this not my excuse. I just feel depressed some times and unmotivated. I feel that I am too old, have forgotten a lot and can not remember much after reading, therefore I ask mysel WHY go thru this? Iam really starting this journal coz this is my last hope. I need to be motivated, focussed and keeping my eyes on the prize. I am expecting that htis journal will bring me discipline, motivation and honesty. My goals and accomplishments here will not be tinted like I have done in the past. I have read the Do's and don'ts given to Paheli by Pray and I am really taken them to heart. I do nat have a set date for my exam as I have already registered for march-may and then gotten an extension thru August which I am not going to use. I will not decide on a date until I am done with my first read. I have The RBC's, WBC's, lymphoid and coagulation disorders left in path, whole pharm and whole physio left for my first read. I will not set any goals for tonite as I will try to recommit myself to studying tonite. Aftr having an idea of how many pages I have read in how many hours I will be able to post a realistic goal for tomorrow. I want to be honest with myself and I want u all to be honest with me. I reaaaally need YOUR HELP.

Starting your journal is a very good idea Zade . I think it will help you stay focused.zade wrote: I feel that I am too old, have forgotten a lot and can not remember much after reading, therefore I ask mysel WHY go thru this? Do not worry or think about it too much. This is only your first read. Even fresh graduates or students cannot remember things by reading once. It is not age but the overwhelming amount of material to read that makes everything jumbled up in your mind.I am sure you are not 70 yet  . Good luck with your prep and beyond.

I have managed to finish Red blood cell disorders last nite. I will be reading white blood cell disorders and try to attempt lymphoid disorders over the weekend. If all goes well I should be finished with Path by the end of next week. This is my goal and I do plan to stick to it. Wish me luck. Shwe; Will try not to be lazy.

I have been out of touch for a while coz I have not accomplished my goal and do feel that I am falling in the same pit again. Came home tonite with energy and decided to put in some valuable time but as soon as I got thru the door the family wanted to go back to school shopping. Even though I did oblige I made a plan to give them a liast so they go with their dad. I am about to put in 30 minutes of RR now and then bed. Tomorrow I will be looking for an aucilliary jack for my ipod so that I can spend valuable time listening to papi instead of the news. Presently have no set plans for studying but hoping to put in a total of five hours. Will keep u posted.

Well,well,wel. I have ben absent for a while coz I wa not doing much. I am glad to postt that I only have 7 pages of RR left and I will definitely be done with patho. What a journey that was! Much to remember but not as scarry as it was b4 doing it. Will move on to physio coz I enjoyed physio in med school and that will help me keep my momentum going. Do not know what the plan is. I do not know what the best review is for that but I will do KLN. Any inputs will be appreciated. Will leave pharm for last.

Shwe: It took a long time and a lot out of me. I did not know that I was the odd one there with RR. I am glad to only find out at the end or I will have been even more discouraged. I have officially completed RR. Took a day off to go back to school shopping with my kids and develop an attack plan for physio. It looks like it is going to be KLN. Will formulate a more detailed plan later with a realistic goal.

hi zade!!! i saw your post at the study partner page, and had to come by here to share your truimph!! wow wow wow, done with rr!!! that's simply awesome, lady!!! good job!!!  after path you can certainly crush physio .....!!! kln is pretty comprehensive for physio. it lacks cns though, but it covers most of it in its neuroanat section. so, depending if you used kln for anat as well, you're well covered. otherwise, think of supplementing with perhaps brs physio. brs physio also has some good qns. good luck!!! hope to hear of your victory against physio soon!!

Hi Paheli: U guys r so encouraging and make feel so good that I am done with RR. All of a sudden I have a sudden burst of energy and feel like I can do IT. For a while I was doubting myself but I am ready to keep on truckin'. I do not have BRS and am not sure if I am going to get it but I read a lot about it on this forum. Will keep u posted on my physio journal. Should be starting tonite once I get home. TC.

I have started physio and moving at a pretty good pace. Even surprising myself and actually enjoying it. I had planned to complete Section1 and 2 of KLN in 4 and a half days but finished them in 2 and moving on to section 3 - peripheral circulation. Also gave myself 4 days to complete it. Let us c if I can do it in 2. TC
