I have been on Anatomy for the past 7-8 weeks. I will complete the remaining last 3 chapters of KLN anatomy in the next 2 days. That is what I mean. I wish I am really a rock man. I guess I am too slow anyway. Please keep me informed.

At last my 1st weak of step 1 prep ends today.... i am highly motivated as this weak went above my expectation.... i have completed 4 section of physiology with lectures it means 84 pages this weak:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:... i know u gyz says i sucks.. only 84 pages & he is telling us as he ends 840 pages.. but as i told u gyz i was below average student & this was my 1st weak pf prep & at start i was thinking i couldnot even study 5 pages per day but this was exciting & highly motivating...

Now my next weak target is at section 7 means till respo with lectures.. see what happens i will try my best to complete my next weak target pray for me & wish u good luck for ur targets:)):)):)):)):)):)):))

Kinda feel I wasted 5 days.

I am doing Patho from Kaplan for 10 days now. Doing more than one chapter in one day was my plan. But for the last 5 days I'm having severe concentration issues. Don't know why!
After finishing Patho I've to study Biochem Micro and Behavioral Science which will complete my first read. To be honest I'm not happy with the first read. You feel like you're storing only 10% of the knowledge which is, I suppose, very bad. After first ready you should be able to recall at least 40% of the material. Anyways this is my story for now.

@ misrey

yehhhhh i can agree with ur problem.. as i have recently started this problem but don't worry i have met many people they all say it is normal phenomenon that u want to recall more then 40% but u r able to recall just 5%.. its mean u have doing 5% more recall then ordinary people.. its good folk...... i am regularly update my yesterday studies & my today's plan in this forum b/c in this way i can be more motivated b/c i think i wrote on the forum now i have to do this if i have to be safe from embarrassment.. so make ur regular goal & try to update in this way u can concentrate more:)):)):)):)):)):)):)):)):)):))

i am 4th year med student .. resources
pathoma + goljan
physio kaplan + brs ( cvs git and endo are way better in BRS than Kaplan)
biochem ( kaplan is great but i supplemented genetics portion with High Yield cell and molecular biology )
anatomy ( underground clinical vignettes ) + first aid
HIgh yield neuro anatomy
CMMRS for micro
immunology first aid enough .
Brs behaviour sciences
plan on taking the test in novemebr . please pray for me guys ... and v should post difficult concepts and discuss them as its the most ACTIVE way of learning and we should pimp each others with a lot of question
