Few days before the exam
Posted by dokidok on May 2, 2008
I don’t feel that well prepared as I was for step 1, but I will try to do my best. These are my 3 important things to follow.
1. Mantra for the exam: do your best, be confident, and look at the eye. I will keep repeating this until the exam comes.
2. If the case starts going in the wrong direction, don’t panic, just return the case to the previous stable level. Think about the tennis players. I have seen so many games when one of the players is so close to loose the game but he gets his act together, and finally wins the game.
3. Nobody will judge you if you fail. Many people screw up in front of the whole nation, but they don’t care. They keep doing what they like and don’t think in a negative way about themself.
4. The patient needs help, so help him. You have to believe that you are helping the patient and he will feel better.
