match2010 Thanks for the nice input. I should do it like this trying to get tempo. I am doing patho. But a little slow. Will try to read it fast. I am worried , an old grad and attempt in step1 . What would be my future. But trying to think positive to score high and leave all things to God.

hi girldoc firstly let me tell u stop listening to people who are in the same stage as you are, listen to everyone,thank them for their concern,be humble,but at the end of the day do what ur heart says becoz u and only you knows whats best for u, dont listen to people when they say good abt u,dnt listen when they criticise in short TURN DEAF think abt it how can u be dependent on someone so much that they start affecting you, u feel good when they say good u feel bad when they say bad so someone else is controlling ur life.....people have bought u down in the past they might as well do it again but u have the brakes in ur hand u cant change everyone but u can change urself.... based on the above text even i am a third person becoz i am ur colleague...not experienced but frm what i know being an old graduate is not the last thing they will see on ur application... remember u and only u know what best for u so listen to everyone the whole world becoz they wont stop talking, but do what ur heart says.... take care.

hitesh To sit for at least 10 -12 hours of studies . 8-10 days for lenghty subjects like patho and physio. 4-5 days for others which are not that lengthy. Good luck for the prep . Keep motivating each other. Thanks for the input and nice words

match2010, hitesh , optimist_wins, devoted I think ,I will stick to this 3 months schedule . But if I need more time may be one month or so. I'll evaluate my performance after two reads and qs to know where I stand. For this time 3 months in my mind for prep time is motivating and less time to waste.

Taking NBME 2-3 weeks before the exam would be a good idea and relying upon the NBME score even a better one Good Luck!
