hey kg.. ya.. i remember that anp is opposite of aldosterone.. duh me. to be honest, i havent opened a book for 2 days now and am zoned out cause im really sick. its still not an excuse though. I could go on studying but that might jeopardize the exam day so planning to get the rest needed even though its the hardest thing ever. i hope no one has to go through this before their exam day or on it.. im hating this so bad. headache is the worst and drugs (OTC not prescribed) are not helping. i even OD'd a lil than recommended.. sad i know one of my relatives who had hemorrhage few days before her exam day and all she did was study throughout her life.. even in hs she was studying like it was step1. shaking head

thnx KG , and this is to you fyred up .....ummmm lemme try ur questions !~
first one thats coronary arteries extract most oxygen in diastole cuz thats whe they fill up and extraction is maximum and thats why venous po2 is low coming out from heart ....systole it doesnt fills up cuz of mechanical compression of coronary vessels !!

second one wt heart sound we hear when aortic vale closes is S2 ( because its due to closure of valves) and when aortic valve opens we hear S3 which is normal in children ( i think ) shaking head

i dunno if im right but plz do tell me cuz i answered it without referring from anywhere !! thnx

sure i am this day we are masters of our own fate

that the task before us is not above our strength

that its pangs and toils are not beyond my endurance

as long as we have faith in our cause

and an uncongruable will to win

VICTORY WILL NOT BE DENIED US.

now that you are so close to achieving your goal don't panic... make the best of use of your time.just revise and revise.... and don't keep anything for the day before exam... getting nervous now will only lead to a waste of time so calm down....

thnx cutekity.. you really are amazing.. thnx much for the support.. somehow i could see how you are like lisa and i would be bart.. lol.

About the ritalin i do have access to em, but i dont think i want to.. my morals would punch me everyday and i cant have that guilty feeling. I personally don't think most people who are on it, whom are also dx with ADD.. dont really need it. I think its an abused drug even with prescription. Now coffee and tea.. that i've been upping myself on it.. even with gerd.

SOS - awesome poem.. very motivational. to be honest.. you would be the first person to send a poem even though i jus hit 26 recently. thnx a bunch. I read it as if King leonidas would say it (from "300" - spartan).

report: jus finished more q's-uw.. getting the score back up again. yup. Back to FA.. wink

Hello Fyred-Up! Well I just read your journal and it seems like you are well prepared, but its just the stress that is getting to you.....however hard it is, PLEASE DO NOT LET IT GET TO YOU!

It is a mind game finally....so I really wish you good health this week, loads of stamina and confidence to get thro' this exam! nod

thanx so much doc499, miss-DV, CK, actinya.

doc499, miss-DV - yes im feeling better esp after going to dentist and the flu has went down, thank God. I will take your advice ck.. im not touching anything but FA and UW even though i know i would get more out of opening other books, but those would jus eat up my time. actinya, about step being a mind game - you can say that again. i thought about what if i dont make it and i could see myself getting angry at everyone around me. dont worry.. i was only thinking so that would make me neurotic (as we all are at some point) and not psychotic. wink

I have a favor from all of you guys..

i thought about not signing into prep4usmle.. or anything for that matter.. few days before the exam. You guys do mean alot to me, but is this a common practice here? im relatively new here so don't know much about how it goes few days before the exam. Maybe monday? pls give me your opinion. Im not planning to study much on thursday and i will be reading this thread and i will definitely write back to everyone on friday night giving my insight on how it goes down.
