It is around 12:45 pm here. I am at the library and working on NBME form 1 qs. Want to stay focussed and motivated and on track. Everyone is welcome. Let us help each other. I will be here for >2hrs and then get my kids back from school. And hopefully start again at 6pm. Allah give me strength.

Hi bcell low scores will stimulate you.AFTER ALL THAT IS WHY WE ARE DOING QBANK .To see our weak areas and work hard on those.So push forward,dont give up
practice makes you perfect . my low score in NBME did stimulate me and yestrday i was reading up to mid night. Trust me we will make it keep up the hard work

Hello hir and fd, you are absolutely right , we have to keep trying , never give up and as fd says...need the extra force to make it happen . And achieve our goals...with pride Please ....don't feel depressed (even though I had the same feeling yesterday and day before) but let us try to quitting those words away for a while , with each others help..... (but forgive me if I say I am depressed tom or day after  ) we will fight this fight and nail the concepts down and try our best. Started at 6:15 am today at starbucks took an 1hr break and back on track..........here I come CNS.
