From my dear friend, SOS:
Do your best
There are no shortcuts
on the way to a dream,
So give all that you have
to all that you do
And above all things,
believe in yourself.
This is all your dream asks of you.
But this is everything.
Ok, I think I am motivated enough now...lets continue and get ready for my biggest battle of all...
I am still doing Hematology....I found it hard...but hv to learn it well for my day.

Hi Veteran,
Thank you for visiting and your genuine posts in Simon's journal.
It would be nice if you could have a prep journal as well, it would motivate others a great deal.
Wish you success in your journey

Study499, I dont think God ever gets tired of our prayers. But also, God only helps those who helps themselves. ( I am sure I put a spin there on an old saying!)
I have completed all USMLE steps and am currently about to finish my intern year in residency. It has all been good!

May 22 / 14 days till my NBME:
Plan for today:
Endocrine + Micro(1hr)+ Immuno(2hrs) + Biochem(2hrs)
What is done:
Only Thyroid and Some Micro
Why?
1) Started late as slept late the night before
2) was not disciplined enough and easily lost hrs( could not keep up with 50 mins reading 10 mins rest....too badddd.
3) headache in d afternoon so slept for 2 hrs.
Also went out for a long walk...1.30 hr.
P.S. this is only for me to follow my progress and improve...not for anyone to get discouraged...my aim other than success in d exam is to encourage others as well...so I am helping myself and you too can do this...I know ultimately I will make my dream come true...just a matter of time and change...
Oh BTW, Congrats to all Manchester United fans

Ok I can not repeat these mistakes again...
It is all about being disciplined...If I can not manage this prep and this exam, how on earth I am going to manage my biggest exam...LIFE...
So I am usually more disciplined in a library...but can not go to one becoz of family issues...Just hve to work on it...just hv to try hard to sit for 50 min continuously then very short break and then start again...just hv to do this...and shld not lose any hr in between...shld sit still, focused and read fast...
have to wake up early...can not study late even if i am awake...the best time for me is early morning...
I hope i wont let myself down again tomorrow...
Good night my dear journal and friends.

EVERY HOUR IS PRECIOUS/ each hr means 50 mins studying and 10 mins break
1st 6hrs session:
8.30-9.30 ..... 9.30-10.30 ..... 10.30-11.30 ...........11.30-12.30
Parathyroid .....Parathyroid...on line/Phosphorus.......Adrenal
12.30-13.30........ 14.00-15.00 ..... 15.00-16.00..... 16.00-17.00
on line/lunch.......Adrenal......................................went for a runnnn
2nd 6 hrs session :
17.30-18.30 ..... 18.30-19.30 ..... 20.00-21.00..... 21.30-22.30
Adrenal.............Wasted...................................Micro
22.30-23.30..... 23.30-24.30
Why i waste my time? why I can not study at nights?
You see my friend, Its not becoz i read everything that it takes me time...Its becoz I easily lose my hrs... I usually study for 5/6 hrs per day...never hv done 12 hrs and can not even imagine 15 hrs... ...
