Dear Journal,


After going through many of the journals in this
I have started my prep 3 months back, with on& offs in between. One day , I study for 8-9 hrs, but the next day hardly 2- 3 hrs. The problem is I am an easy distractor. I browse alot & watch movies atleast 2 in a week. I have to get rid of these distractions in the middle of the prep. Atleast I have to keep a fixed day in a week for these things & relax. so I will take tuesday as the day off for my prep.

I have to maintain consistency in my prep. Be determined till I give my step 2ck exam.

MY study aid: Kaplan LN for all subjects expect psychiatry, Barabara fadem for psychiatry & USMLE world

Till now I finished Most of the internal medicine. I have to do Usmle world questions in Hematology, pulmo, Liver, rheuma, ENT, Derma & Opth. I am doing topic wise, timed mode & reading the explanation for every question & then prep a notes with stuff I dont know.

Study for 10hrs a day, make sure not in quantity, but in quality
Planning To finish all the subjects by the end of this month.
By 11th I should Finish the remnants of IM (Usmle world questions in Hematology, pulmo, Liver, rheuma, ENT, Derma & Opth)
By 19th I should finish pediatrics inc UW
By 26th psychiatry inc UW
By 2nd oct surgery Inc UW
By 11th oct Oby & gyn inc UW

Revise all subjects in 10 days & give NBME 2
30days of revising Kaplan LN, UW questions & my notes
Then give NBME 3
Finally 10 days prep just before exam
Exam day.
I am planning to give my exam by NOV ending

God give me strength to achieve my goal, to keep myself focused always & to maintain consistency in my prep.
I feel that I can achieve my goal with help of god & with the motivation I expect from this forum.

Ok coming to todays schedule, I should complete hematology & Pulmonology UW questions. Meet you before I go to bed with my todays performance.

I am sorry dear journal,

A small correction. I didnt finish the opening sentence in the above post.

After Going through Many journals, I thought of writing my journal which helps me to stay focused, update my performance daily, so I am doing it now
