how are you all me going up and dawn doing UW started yestrday
subject wise did only 3 blocks score 80% up to now i am using the questions as a study tool trying to get the most out of every question
clarify things which were not clear to me i think that should be our focus
we dont have to be discouraged by low score that is telling us we should work more.
Keep going all of you who are on november train thank you for sharing your expriances let us encourage each other.

hi mikky

mine is also 29th nov. i,m giving in dallas Tx what about you

good luck


  #34

Cleopatra! I will wish you luck in december...

Simi and hope4dabest: i'm not sure if i can give you advice because my exam is going to be on 11/28 yeeeeeeeeeeeeee
i think you just need to continue...it is not important how many questions would you answer right or all together,
important what you would be able to remember at time of your exam... So if it takes long time to get explanations down and you can keep them...fine...it's ok. With practice you will get more done...
Does anybody look at exam experience... A lot of people with score 99 got around 55%correct
i am on q-bank now ... Will start usmle next week...

hey folks. what are ur plans during these last 4 weeks or so?

Right now i'm doing Biochem. In my first read i knew so much, but now when i review the same material, i cant recall many things, sometimes i cant even get those questions right which i did initially.... Any one else sailing in the same boat?

hey motivation, we might be neighbours winkgrin

Thanks alot motivation u r greatsmiling face

  #45

well what advice can i give about memory problems. i think repitition is the key.

i wonder whether minute details are really tested on the exam. As it is said that the test is more about concepts... What are ur thoughts about this. Those who have taken the test could give a better picture.

BTW, nice link motivation..

and keep questions coming. happy studying to all.

I just wanted to say good morning to all ,how is your last month study treating you , as i said i am working on UW biochem came across many difficult questions so far , can any body tell me doing how many questions per day should be my goal?
Good and productive day to all

  #48

hi fanaye
i do 50 qs a day,but i am so lazy to read the answers,so i decided to do like this:
first i do 50 qs without reading the answers after reading the subject ,then when i want to take a break between my studings i do just 5-15 qs in tutor mode...it works for menod
but you know what in my little budy let me i would do morewink
most of the times i study with my fussy baby when he is sitted on my knees or i do the qs when he is crying raised eyebrow
and i can't do any thing else...that's why i just want to passconfused
just PASS.....smiling face
please give me your advices and your hope,i realy need itsmiling face

  #49

Hi guys how is every1doing shohreh its really tough to study for this exam and close to imposible doing it with a baby the best you can do is tough love if you think the baby is ok i know this sounds bad ignore the BABYsad I hope it ok to say that i know i have 2and its worse when they can talk they can report you shaking headgrin.
anyways when i have no time to go through each and every explanation i just go over the right explanation and the 1 i choose to clarify my confusion i dont go over the wrong 1s coz i have eliminated them already i know they are wrong
any way have fun guys and study hard.

  #50

hi all ,how's the day going on?

good luck to all
