hi step99, thanks for all the suggestion. i had brs in my computer, didnt use much. i will have RR soon.

i have been wandering around for last few days. yesterday, i was very hopeful and excited, and today, very agitated. wasted whole day on the net, because couldnt decide what to do. i made a routine, and now i dont want to follow that. so, i am wandering like homeless, didnt want to type in my own journal, but then i realized, how long can i run away from my home. so, here i am, even if i do only few stuff, something is better than nothing. its 11 pm, i have 1 hour before i go to bed, i will do some questions, of patho, since i dont feel like doing any other subject, or dont feel like reading any other subject.disapproval

U'll do great dude. Dont u worrysmiling facesmiling face

Life always presents us with oppurtunities to improve, to make it more beautiful, to make the best use of our hidden and latent talents.
Think of this setback as one such oppurtunity.

Let this be the moment where u define ur strengths and make them count.
You may not have a magic wand at our disposal, but you can alway call upon a strong will, a strong determination, and an undying spirit to succeed.

Let this be the time when u bring them forth, and bring them forth in all their strenghth! nod

Wish u all the luck in the world!smiling facesmiling facesmiling face

me too doing some housework ..
if i leave anything undone , it upsets me ... and then i find the house depressing.. and then i can't study ..
so i have stopped fighting that feeling and just accepted that i must devote some time everyday to household stuff
my room used to be real messy before marriage and i never bothered about it ... but i find myself really sulking if i have the house messy ...my husband says never mind but i can't listen to him !!!
things that marriage does to you ....

hey milee, thanks for dropping by,thats very true, i was messy before, i still am messy in my study room, books on the floor too, i spread things around, i try to limit my messyness in my room only, but sometime it happens i see dust on the coffee table, and that time i have no plan of cleaning, and it stays on back of my mind, and keeps bothering, worst thing is to see dirt on white tile in kitchen area, and it happens very frequently as we come from outside through that area, sweep, mop, disapproval cant avoid..

ok, another day somehow passed by, feel little sad, feel dissapointed at myself, couldnt decide what to do.disapproval

wow, what a coincidence, lol, i just posted in your journal, in a minute after you posted. CK, i am not good, i want to study very hard, my plan is march, april, may prepare, but march is dissappearing.. sometime i feel i am really bad, if anyone work hard, they do improve, but i sometime feel, i still havent learnt my lesson. i hope, i start some hard work soon, otherwise, i will become a veteran forever!sad

hi Ad... here is what i have learnt about the exam.... and i think it should help you prepare ...

two basic requirements for acing this exam are: CONCEPTS + FACTS

both go hand in hand,one is incomplete without the other.... i suggest you first give the Concepts part as much as time you need to get them absolutely cold.... ie get the big picture...... after you are done and you can tell yourself that you know them well enough,move on to the facts part..... learn the rules,remember all there is to remember and by heart it so that you can recall it whenever the need be..

now comes the most important leg of your prep: INTEGRATION and APPLICATION of all the concepts and facts you have learnt so far..... if you have been honest with yourself until this time,this should rather be fun............ so actually its no big deal after that.... you will start to enjoy the questions......

in my case i have the concepts but my facts are weak so i am working on that now.... got a lot to remember..... good things about concepts is once you have it its there,you will not lose it,but facts are volatile....

one more thing is try to make your reading less painful and more fun.... forget the exam..... read as if you want to learn about the wonders of human body,the marvelous work of god,the cleverness of those little bugs,our ever so smart immune systems,the wonderful job of drugs and how they work,....... etc etc...... make curiosity and sense of wonder an integral part of your studies and you will soon see the results...

and you should be your worst critic.... think about it....

lastly,give your dream all you have coz there are no shortcuts to the way to a dream......you have to give your best .....

good luck.

hey AD.... make a plan!!!! what i did was that i took a calender and figured how many days for each subject and wrote everything out in the calendar, so i could be held accountable for what i was doing each day.... for example, if the book you're reading has 40 pages in a particular subject, you can easily read this in one day or a day and a half and that still gives you another half day to review or to do questions..... doesn't have to be done so quickly, but you get the picture.....
oh, and everyone always says take a break and you'll feel better about all this, i know you really don't want to take a break b/c you want to get this over with, but it works, your mind will be fresh and you'll feel more motivated.... so, hope this helps and remember that what works for me may not necessarily work for you, so pick and choose from people's advice and make your own plan.... ok sorry the post is a little long... good luck!

thanks Fluro, its ok, well, my husband said last night i lack motivation, i couldnt sleep for 2 hours, and i had bad dreams. anyway, since i was not going anywhere, i decided to watch something i didnt want to do it now, genetic video, i may change my mind though. but if i do so, i can say, i did something. i will be back later, i always forget something to tell.
