hi kalyann, this is sumedha, i am following ur thread well since 2 days and am trying to study follow ur study schedule and want the same aim as u have 99percentile , well i like ur motivation and spirit it is amazing and guiding . well tell me how to study path 1 st hear the golgan cd and then read the book or vice versa .and is the new edition required .i am planing to match 2009 so i need ur help

  #153

hi sumedhaa...

kaise hai aap ?

goljan audios are suited to match his 500 ( 200 gen + 300 systemic path ) pages notes or Rapid Review book .

U ought to listen to 30 hrs audio lectures with either of these notes.

Since patho and pathophysio counts for 60-70% of the exam, its wise to spend the same amount pf prep time for them. So if u can chalk out a schedule for abt 9 days and daily listen to 200 min of lectures while looking at the notes and then sit down for say 4-6 hrs gettign everything learnt from the same. u r done with pathophysio in 9 days .

One more advantage with Goljan Audio is that he revises physio and biochem and genetics as he integrates them into pathology. So that is the reason i included them in my prep plan with only 33 days left. Starting his lectures in 3 days .

hope this helps.

hi kalyan can u upload kaplan q bank if u have it tc study well bbye

  #164

great work kalyan....smiling face you got the rite spirit.. i totally understand wen u said that gettin scared of the result reduces effectiveness of study...
i had same prob...just take it one day at a time... do all u can TODAY... remember keep pushing your limit... possibilities of human mind is unlimited.. and just DONOT worry about the result... this is a game... enjoy the action now..giving it your best is equivalent to a 99...
thats how i see itwink
k enough of advice... i'll go n live my words..

  #165

hey one ques...
pl tell me which are the kaplan dvds worth watching...?

  #166

Hmmm

I f u like somebody explaining it to u ( aka spoon feeding ) and u retain and understand well , then the dvds are defintieli for u.

Must watch acc to me : Physio; Biochem & Mol Bio ; Neurology ; Path Goljan ; Immuno ; Behav Sci ( MUST MUST WATCH or els we cant make any sense of the kaplan notes w/o them)

Others can very weel be skipped i opinionate.

If u mind....

NBME is a self evaluation tool...If u look at it, u loose the value.
