hey buddies i'm back. The exam went ok. Difficult to say how well i did but felt pretty comfortable throughout except for some odd silly mistake and some weird questions in between. Will write in greater detail once i get the tiredness outta my system. General impression... There's a bunch of questions which is pretty basic and straightforward which u can basically learn from any decent prep material. There's also some material which is kinda weird and very twisted for which u need to really have a super grasp of a whole lotta concepts and probably thats got more to do with the effort put in while u were in medical school. Generally the kinda stuff not really taught overtly in prep materials but which u need to have circultating at the back of ur mind. But this i guess may not be true in each individual case, we all have different abilities and capabilites. Right??? Right! And yes to wind up there's also questions from ethics which u really cannot learn anyplace. You just guess the answers! Will be a lil more precise and a lil less abstract the next time i post. For now ma mind's kinda hazy with exhaustion. Can answer simple questions though, if anyone has some (but i guess i need to hold back on some of the advice until i've my result, then i can talk from a more surer footing:nod

Guyton, I think more than the number of readings its the kinda thought you put into your learning which is important. There are generally three kinds of questions you face. One is questions which test your basic factual knowledge, something you cannot afford to forget! Two, and equally important, is questions which test indepth understanding of material you learn. Mind you this is not the same as learning obscure facts but instead an ability to synthesize bits of information you learn into a continuum i.e form as many connections as you possibly can. Third, and relatively less important, is questions which test unusual info. Gettin even half of that stuff right should be good enough for a great score. If you can identify any of these aspects which seem to be missing from your prep at this time and then get to work on them regularly i think your scores should definitely improve. As i've mentioned often its very important for us to be able to identify our weak areas and then make sure we improve them as much and as soon as possible. That effectively determines the number of readings you require and the way you need to go about it. I dont think there is one single formula to success. We all need to adapt our preps to our needs (which i think are unique to each individual), and of course to the needs of the exam (which is a common denominator for all of us!).
