Hey feyza,
make notes of UW or do tutormode then on the last block of every subject do timed mode. You will improve. You are a hard worker. I can feel your "UW fighting mood" CHEW it, eat it, bite it, digest it.. it's all we need. I am not saying that for you but to myself as well. Good luck!!

834 now grin hehe ... Im proud of myself sticking out tongue but ask me how I did them ! I dont have a life sad

well , I strongly suggest you make notes rolling eyes I cant go more than 2 blocks this way although I study like 10 hrs a day ... but before I go to sleep I read those notes and they just STICK ! and I carry my lovely colorful notebook with me everywhere and whenever something buzz my brain , I open and re-check , and I will have it handy in my last rapid review with me too ... but Mydream, thats the way it works for me , I have friends that hate writing when studying and they are still successful ... so yours is an option too nod

beeest best luck hun !

oo ... by the way ... my little puppy son draws pix to my notebook everyday ... he says theyre to bring me luck and for me remember him in the library ! ( as if I forget him a second sticking out tongue)


a very nice sunday spring morning here in Istanbul... now I will go to the garden of the library , putoff my shoes, sit on the grass and have a coffee break b4 I come back to start with respiratory system Qs smiling face

in step 1 , I did only 200-300 Qs ... in total ! shocked I was nuts I guess confused and only read the explanations of the wrong ones so I must be thankful that I even passed... so I definetely should score over 80 this time , and I cant afford to ignore this ... so Im just blindly cramming UW trusting the advises of the former exam takers... have no idea how it will help me , but Im just doing it as well as I can ... lets see rolling eyes

That is a wise way, my dear friend, stick to limited resources and study them over and over. About the note, you can make up another note book putting all the easy-to-confusing stuff together. For example, give one or two pages to beta-blockers on their applications, one page to beta-blocker on controindications. Enjoy!


  #618

hey feyza good going girl, yeah agree with most do only kaplan surgery along side UW. the combination is lethal.



im 30% through my UW. im doing it after the first read. and not doing any revision along side. its all about UW day in and day out. im scoring average though but who cares its a learning tool isisit it. The NBMEs will decide where i stand.



GOOOOOOD MOOORRRRNNIIIINNNG !!!!! another day in our busy academic lifes

22 days to go shocked Oh my Lord time flies. I think that is the clue to stick to limited resources and master them. I wish I can mean it but I am obsessed in finish up the material I planned but it is taking for ever and I need to move on...

Best of lucks Feyza

hey hey Ivonne... take it easy girl smiling face 15 days for UW + 22 days for last rapid review smiling face

still shockedable tho sticking out tongue

in UW, I very confidentially with no hesitation answer a Q that for example 23% answered correct ... then I cant hink to get a chest XR for a pneumonia thinking that there must be a trick disapproval am I stupid or what mad

no Feyza you're not, this is the criteria of genuses grin

just you have to admit to your self that not every questions have a trick, and that it may be tricky for others who didn't study well but for you it is a piece of cake grin
