Dr.Gboy:

first of all do u stay in USA?
Secondly,can u link me up with any usmle past questions site?
Finally,whats d meaning of all these pro dis pro dat? Coz i'm a fresher
Thnks in advance.
No i don't stay in the USA, am a med stud at unijos med schl,but i want to do my residency(post graduate training) in the states, so that is why am much interested in USMLE(united state medical licensing examination). There are many sites where u can get info about usmle, including the pratice aids,as pastQ's etc.. But i will recomend (www.usmleworld.com) for u, cos it have been of great help to me. Finally, PRO is simply the opposite of ANTI-, so when someone says that he is pro-neuro, it simply means that he likes and would like to specialize in field of either, Neurology or neuro-surgery. Ok Doc, i guess i have been able to answer ur questions, sir.
Doctors!!!

u need to start a habit of reading by stopping other habits that makes u not to read.
If u read for a short period of time,take lyk 5-10 mins break,then get back to ur reading,u can read for abt 6hrs provided there are no distractions. i promise u, u will not feel tired at all.
This strategy rlly helps.

My fellow med student I Greet u all
I'm a 400level mbbs student of the niger delta university.
For those of u dat just got into medicine,I congratulate u,but I also want to let u knw dat medicine is a very scary place if u don't want to work hard.
Being in 400level I av @ every stage of my class watch my friends drop out of medicine because they either failed or couldn't continue,I'm tryin 2 make u understand dat u av 2 set ur priorities rite if u want stay in medicine,the time to play would always come,but make sure u read and my candid advice is if u read and u don't understand plz cram it oooooo.
Year 1 medicine in my sch and I'm sure in most other schools mostly deals wit d sciences,like chemistry 101,biology 101,physics 101,and some other general studies courses and in my sch we do community medicine in year 1.
So try and pray and ask for grace,becos truthffully some of us dat r still in it,it is not because we r very brilliant it has just been grace,somtimes sef we pass with just d required mark needed to scale tru.
For our old med students,I hail una,for d new ones ekabo!!!!
