guys i thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for all of us who are taking exam towards may end so that we keep in touch regularly on daily basis and share our progress , our schedules , our strategies and hy points/images/ct/ mri/ angio to help each other out ( 2+2 = 4) and most importantly, motivate each other.
Lets participate actively, please start by introducing yourself and telling us where you stand in ur progress and how you plan to proceed in next 2 months
for eg
Kaplan LN done ( how many times )
Goljan RR/Pathoma (how many times)
UW done (how many times )
any other q bank done
FA done( how many times)
any HY books done ( how many times)
any other additional source followed
any NBMES taken offline/ online
brief plan for next 2 months
This would help all of us to mould our ways in these 2 months and correct ourselves if we are going in a wrong direction
also, since exam pattern is changing , it would be great idea to form a thread and pitch in our ideas
so guys here i am, i start ...waiting for u all to actively participate

hey .. i started last feb while doing job and use to just read kaplans here and there..
and so far i have done kaplans 3 times.. (my basics are weak thats why i cant seem to leave kaplans)|
did uw one and half times..
and FA well i always kept first aid along with kaplans..
from april m gonna take my first NBME so lets see how thats gonna go .. and from there m gonna just do first aid and uworld the half thats left.. and i need to focus on biostats questions also so gonna give 2 days just to that.. so ya thats my progress..
it has been a long journey for me .. but i think the best studying i done was from the last 1.5 months since i left job...cuz during job i just read it and didnt really extract the high yield stuff..
plz keep me updated as my date is coming near and m really getting exhausted and slow..lets motivate eachother...!!
