THanks Praying499a for dropping by, grin

I'm having a cold now.

That's so terrible! confused

I've read GI + hemato. last few days and it's just no any progrerss. shaking head

I'll take a break for a while, guy. sad



  #34

Get well soon nod
For best cold remedy , warm soup , warm green tea , rest alot , take vit C .
Not to push , test H20 taht will prolong cold ... ie to test cold by reading studying , study abit despite of cold that need to rest or sleep & need lots of rest .
In the long run, rest well will get full recovery afst that easy to catch lost study days than , not rest while have cold that will prolong ur sick cold days with longer time to have full recovery .
[ ps from 2 yrs in a roll bad cold winter experinces ]

So study full when full recovery , now rest , get food that helps cold goes away fast .

Congrat , u have alraedy done alot nod

GL nod

  #35

Thanks Shwe.smiling face Your advice is a good one. grin

I drink some cups of warm green tea and I feel so comfortable.

I'm quite getting better now except of my sniffy nose.confused

SJ told me about some other necessary books which is HY neuroanatomy,

Goljan patho. and Micro. make it rediculous.

I agree because many peoples said so in exam exp.

I think I'll look for them while I study KLN.nod

  #36

u r welcome , any time , PRC any time nod , all learnt by self trial research for fm , self , experinces wink
Oh , sniffy , stuffy nose then running nose is always recovery if u had pass those at start or if u had cold at start , but not as brand new one ... new onset for this time ... after u r originally healthy for a few days , wks , a while .
So I think ... now u r leading to normal , noncold healthy , just do not get slip back, it's v easy if u push studying by the way of cutting off time by not eating real meal u usually have instead grap 5 .. 10 min easy food ....... that will lead u to in the long run ......... more down resistance ... more cold, may b even imbalance in diet then , all down mal nutrition etc can easily follow .
Same as sleeping , rest time if cut off too much too early after ur full recovery fr cold .. u r creating the vicious cycle of non stop cold then , ok then cold so fort .
So eat healthy , well , real meal , excercise .. even just small stretch , walk, movement plus slowly cut off sleeping , rest time after month of full recovery , so now take it easy .. sleep & rest well with warm green tea , soup then since u r doing FA .. chew it few pages , line even that makes alot , so rest more , read abit as u can stand health wise .

But this stiffy nose time I found out , speedy recovery if get more rest like ... nap in ur down time in the day as extra rest , sleep , though I only found it at my last cold cycle .
Then ..........sleep , eat , rest , excercise as soon as full recovery reach .wink , do not study full [ by time allow to cut off abit sleep , rest , eat time that will not effect ur health ] till after 3 to 4 wk of full recovery nod

Well , I think , I will also put this in my reminder wink at home on fridge so I will not over do in every winter that leads me misarable cold cycle sadmad

Ok , sorry about long post , now enjoy green tea , warm soup & may b golj [ papi's ] speech .

SJ doing very well , so keep her handy grin follow her if the books suit u too . nod
Do not buy yet , so many used r online .

GL nod

Hi,,, I was busy preparing papers for USMLE application.

Now I'm ready to start KLN. And I plan to learn on May 9th.nod

I work as a part-time job so I can have enough time to focus on KLN.

FA ... Yeahh..I've the last 2 lessons left which is reproduction & respiration. rolling eyes


I try to have done with it as 1st time reading before this friday.sticking out tongue



  #39

I've done with FA first reading. There are lots of things to be memorized though.

I 'm studying KLN now almost everyday.nod

I try to finish in 3 months so I can do UW for my next preparation.

  #40

Congrat , FA done 1st , so focus kap LN with Fa back ground .

3 mo . , keep going . Study adily , not almost every day .
Do few pages on work day on PT job , ppl do that wink

What subj r u at now ?
Any kap q with LN ?

Do not forget ur green tea sticking out tongue , me too .

GL nod

  #41

Thanks a lot,Shwe.smiling face

I deal with Physio. and try to finish many questions in LN.

I plan that after I 've done with those qs I'll make a short note into my FA book. nod

So when I review,I don't have to read the big LN .....sticking out tongue




  #42

I've studied KLN in physio,micro,phramaco.nod

I think I'll use MIR microbiology with KLN too because KLN teach quite fast.

I almost learn every days and I hardly practice with many KLN reviewed qs.shaking head


  #43

It's time u show up .
u r welcome smiling face

Good job , done 3 sunj already nod

Which MMRS u will use , latest one or 2nd latest ?

u can do qs now or in next read , not a big deal cool

How about patho ? Just curious grin

I liek my kap Ln with my color , line , small notes fr tapes so , not sure will add in FA , taht will b too much time or notes to add in , will see .

GL nodcoolnod

  #44

Hi.
I show up again.Now I've finished KLN.
I've been doing UW for 3 days.I try to do as much as I can.
But mostly I could do about 30q a day because I'm not familiar with those kind of qs at all.Their explanations are so good that it takes lots of my times to cope with them.sad
And it's not enough because I see most people can do it up to about 100+ per day.
also my friend-SJ did it before.
When I do UW,I don't feel I can get through it.
There are just 5-6 qs which I exactly remember and answer correctly.
I'm trying more and more now.At least I still have my time right.
I come too far to give up.
I'll keep telling u my progress.smiling face

  #45

HI precious, i am glad that u r back! well, it takes time to do uw, i remember when i started, i did 50 block in one day, and solved whole day, like 3/4 hours with writing. Finish it one time, then do it faster. I dont know whats the best way, if you use it for learning, then time is not a factor, but we need to cope with time managment during exam, may be when u r done with learning concept, u can practice with more questions. when r u planning to take the test? GL with ur preparations!nod

Thanks,AD. 50 blocks in one day must be like climbing a huge Rocky mountain . shocked
I choose to take the test during Oct.-Dec. It's about at least 3 months.
I'm gonna take in Dec.
I'll make my times count and try my best.
Days is passing and it makes me feel agitated more and more!sad
I hope I feel better after I can get enough concepts in UW to correct the answers.
smiling face

  #47

Congrat .... ............ u did done K ln 1st round, so do 2nd while uw is on side so , may b faster & no need to read much or faster read with more correct answer , do not forget ur FA too wink , like SJ did .

c u around.

GL nod

  #48

Thanks,Shwe.While I was doing UW,I thought patho qs were so tricky for me.
I usually read q before going to see the rest then pick my answer.
I can review just 25 qs today but I read explanations carefully to get their concepts.
I feel a little dizzy now.
I think I'm gonna a 10min break. >_<
Then let's go next!!
