hi friends,
i have been preparing for step1 since last last year november. i have been preparing very on and off. i am just postponing the exam and i am not at all feeling confident and i am hardly studying too. i stay at home and just waste my time browsing!! and doing other non productive things whole day with out much productive studying.
all the family members r very unhappy with me and i am feeling like i am worth for nothing.
pls... guide me i am feeling very worthless and good for nothing.

Take a part time job in research or medical office,this way you will be little busy and may be
back on track to study.

Start doing questions in the mean time either from UW or kaplanQbank
that may give you some momentum and may initiate U.

hi athena_md,
i have already done one reading of all the kaplan notes and scoring about 30-60% - uw subjectwise which i recently started doing.
i am not able to focus and study and consistency is not at all there.
i am really not understanding how to proceed and i feel like i am in the midst of ocean alone
