USMLE mania!!!

I feel like the anxiety in our class is going to burst! Every time I turn around to talk to someone, we have only two things to talk about. The MOST important one is USMLE! We are discussing schedules, books, plans for studying, NBME, USMLE World, USMLE Rx, First Aid, BRS, plans after the exam, topics we love, topics we hate, and much more....

I put a schedule together in spring break and I keep going back to it and making changes. I think I am finally satisfied with it. I plan on doing intense studying 12-14 hrs a day and sleeping 8 hrs, this leaves me with almost no free time. Hence, I will have to totally isolate myself. :( Lets hope I pass with flying colors and do not go crazy! (Upperclass's have warned us that you will do some crazy stuff, just watch out and realize it is alrite and stop yourself from trying anything "new.") I have attached my schedule for you to see what is ahead of you. In 39 days, I need to review material covered in the last two years and more. Honestly, I have a feeling after it is done, we are going to feel ready for the wards with all the theory at our fingers.

Currently, we are studying Infectious Disease = Parisatolgy, Vaccines, TB, HIV, Meningitis... Have the exam Sunday, and then we have one more exam and we are done with second year!

Its the end of the year, so its always busy. International Evening April 23, Class of 2009 Grad May 6, Convocation Ceremony May 5, Medical Camp that offers free medical care to labor class in Qatar April 17, and more... ofcourse also USMLE!!!
