my prep for the day today: study for 3 hours and then get my apetite ready for a great thanksgiving dinner Smile

@vena: its important to take time and learn the concepts...it took me almost a year to finish my first reading..and remember everyone is different..its better to do one reading nicely than to do several and still be confused!!

@step1race: welcome to the club Smile
hey vena

this is specially for you ..
dont let anything set u back .. i came here in us 2 yrs back .. didnt know a thing about how to start prep .. what books to read .. nor had the slightest idea about the existence UW or worse this forum .. finally somewhere after 6 mths .. i found this site and got a oartner ,, we started prep .. discussed almost every thing .. worked out real good .. but we made a mistake of discussing everything which kind a slowed us down a lot .. and took me more than a yr .. but my first read was magic cos i m an old grad 2003 and had forgotten every thing ..now i m doing my first rev .. and its much faster .. i did UW offline after each subject when i did my first read .. and wrote down a lot of stuff .. in my kaplan .. which took me a lot of time ,, i have my bouts of depression .. cos its taking so much time .. but i m in a much better position and i think i should be readyby feb .. find yourself a partner .. dont discuss everything ,, say one hr a day where u discuss whatever u feel u are weak in or ur doubt and .. set a deadline .. and start a healthy competetive attitude .. just to help u guys keep urselves in check ..

i regret wasting all those days .. but i was so lost .. i m telling u my mistakes .. but this is life and u gotta go on .. and then all is well ,that ends well

all,the best
trying to integrate patho,physio,anat system wise : very time consuming Sad stuck on the same system for three days. My understanding of Perineal anatomy has always been a weak area, and I am taking some time working on it Sad
hey guys @dr_raw thanx.

Good luck to us all Smile
