Hi Guy,
I 'm precious. Nice to see you all. 
I will take Step 1 exam in Dec. For me ,it 's like a thousand mile to go.
I plan to study Kaplan in May for 3 months and then review them with UW
until I take the exam.
Now I'm reading FA as my best friend has said that it 's good for preparation.

Welcome PC [ precious]
Frd's of SJ [ scarelessJ] is frd of us too .
Take her advice too so u will rule .. in flying color too .
Post ur daily progress , resource study plan too , so u will follow thorugh ,since u say it loud here infront of frds , so we all will check on u & u urself will do too , to see u follow ur plan , studying or not
Also as I told SJ b4 , scream with shout out loud, don't b shy when need to vent or need help .
One quick advice, though, in case FA is old 2007 , pl use 2008 , since u still on it .. then , so will not have to go through tranfer notes fr old to new 2008 .

I finished half of that first lesson !!! 
How slow I am 
Yesterday I found a patient with AIDS and history of cryptomeningitis.
She presented by fatigue and I worked up chem7. The result was hyponatremia. (euvolumia)
I spent a couple hour to find what caused this abnormality related to her disease.
It was SIADH. Yeah!!
Oh... I try to finish behavioral science today.

I work in community hospital as a general practitioner.
I plan to study Kaplan in next few months after my assignment is approved.
Hopefully, If things go on my schedule , My D-Day'll be around Dec 2008.
And also, I maybe spend a month for earning money as to take the next Step 2 test.
I try to finish Biochem today !!!

I felt so terrible yesterdays. A medical student who studied in the hospital I work and also had worked with me in last month had a severe car accident. She had acute large subdural hematoma E1VTM2 .
She got craniotomy twice at that night ... ... but she couldn't make it.
I wishpered beside her bed after asystole with crying "June, can you hear me? Of course, I know you will. It was just an accident right.. I know.. I know...We had lots of great moments while we worked together with Edd and Oh. do you remember ... You always asked many hard questions to me...I see you take care of patient very well . And June, you'll be a real good doctor, a pediatric. I know that you really are... "
I felt so sad, guy. I can't finish biochem now. I don't know.
There is her feneral today at the nearest temple and I will go after my work is quit.

I am so sorry for you.
She might be in heaven with God now.
She's got no pain ang she's free.
You may need a couple of weeks to get rid of this kind of things.
Don't worry, I will be here with you.
Take care.

Well precious, am suppose to b v . sleepy but am not so browsing , found ur touchy post re that u lost ur med student .
My heart sad along with I read that , it reminds all my med yrs & even recent that I had lost frds, teachers , consultants with sickness or most sadly , yup MVA , that kills alot of young & seniors even famous old doc more & more now adays .
Bichem , u do not have to finish now, take ur grief time & then u will b back to self then continue ur study .
As a doc we all see that days in & out but as human we also have heart to get sad especially when it is close one . Take it easy .
I know how u will b now, take a deep breath in, play some nice soft songs & wish her rest in peace in heaven .
You will not regret by reading new FA 2008 since u want to use it now , cause if like most raed Fa at last minute that will b 2009 FA out in DEc 2008 , the month u plan for exm , so will b too late .
Hope u enjoy reading new FA .
So can do again when ur kap 3 mo prep time along with each kap u read .
If kap center prep usually u will get free PLS that include on line end chpt qs etc qs & few audio lecture too . So use those 1st , do not rush to UW yet , sinc will not ahve time to do kap center dvd, k LN & then ened chpt qs & alot of other extra qs , & audio lect as each chpt & subj goes by.
Also this month kap has $ 500 discount offer till end of mo I think , check their web or here in post ?? supportforum .
Was so sick last week & still abit so cannot visit u till now .
SJ is also sweet & have rt , excellent outcome with st 1 , so do bug her re ur studying , hi SJ , thanks for the sweet words re me .
AD, SJ , me , MD , SOS , UV , few others r big group supporting each other around end of last yr , we r in good or bad shape .
GL
