What should I be doing the day before? I know I need some down time because I have a marathon of a day ahead of me. I was thinking I would released questions and then some review of "pure memory" type info in FA like interleukins and bug hints and the like. Any suggestions, criticisms, or commentary? Thanks!
 
I'm taking it tomorrow, and I'm taking most of today off. I did some UW questions this morning, and I'm going to look through the high yield associations section in first aid and do maybe a few more questions this afternoon. For the most part I'm just taking the day off and relaxing. And, apparently, spending a lot of time on sdn.
 
yeah, i'm doing UW in the morning and maybe i'll look at the high yield section in FA. otherwise, relaxing as much as i can.
 
cutting myself off from studying around 2 and relaxing was a great decision.....it feels good just to know that you're done studying....I would rec doing anything that completely takes your mind off the test...ie go to the gym/go for a walk/go out to dinner/watch a movie/etc.....I hadn't taken a break in over 2 weeks and definitely slept better and felt refreshed the morning of my test b/c of what I did the day before
 
I wish you both the best of luck! I am taking it on Thursday. Any good movies out there? Maybe I will actually leave the house and my butt imprinted chair behind for a change. Hope it goes well!

seriously...force yourself to get out and do something...anything....it will be worth it.....btw I watched Beerfest....quality if you like really stupid comedies
 
although its a ways away, my plan for the day before is to solidify my proficiency with all relevant biostats/epi. it won't be a high stress thing to cover, but its just something that:
1) i don't have the energy to work on just yet,
2) if i did it now, i'd forget it all by the time i took my test, and 3) its high yield enough to make sure i have it solid.

that and yeah, probably a screening of blazing saddles or something . . .

not a bad idea at all...but I would just make sure to have the basic concepts down before that day .... on the day before maybe just practice doing some 2x2's and go over the formulas
