Thank you hir same to you .Yes i already did uw finished some days ago my score was not that good .When i finished my first reading was 64% ,then the second time i did the marked ones and the wrong question my score went higher.Any ways uw helped me too much.That is why i am reading kaplan the second time .When i red it before doing uw i didn't get much out of it.But now after i saw the content of the questions from uw i found out Kaplan notes are the best if it is used with uw to focus on high yield topics.Like for the femous CK questions what do you do next? Since you are doing uw try to take short notes i hope you are already doing that.I did took notes while i was doing uw i will use it as my last revision material. have good study time keep in touch

Hi hir i am shure you are doing fine.dont worry with your score in uw Just try to get much out of it and take notes stressing more on those you are getting wrong .As you go along the questions you will see your performance will improve. To tell you about my day yestrday i was determined to finish kaplan gyne notes starting from page 80,eventhough i stayed up to 11:30pm i did up to page 160.All in all it was not bad ,So i am left with 14 pages then i am going to start my REAL FINAL REVISION and i will see  have a great and productive day

Thanx hir!!!!! Yestrday i did 250 questions of NMS q book .very informative but very long explanations but it was good . Todays target 200 questions My plan is to finish the questions in the coming 2 days,next will be NBME Then i will go through my notes again,and i have to listen to some heart sounds and mumers even though i will prepare to answer the audio Q from the question stem also i have to try to see some patho images,try to master some common and relevant normal lab values so that i can save time on the exam. This will be my plan fo the rest of my remaining time. Let it be a productive day for all of us
