remember, you signed up for this and there is a light at the end of the tunnel, also countless schmoes have done this before so why shouldn't you be able to?
YOU CAN DO IT!
for things you absolutely must memorize (biochem pathways, drugs, micro stuff) I find it very helpful to write things out on an eraser board (aka dork board - paper is wasteful). Write it out at least 7 times (you'll probably memorize it by the 3rd but keep going to cement it).
Once you start writing things out you'll recognize things like "hey these letters can be rearranged and make a nice little mnemonic." then until the exam you just quickly review your mnemonic and boom you know tons of stuff and can recall GROUPS of information, it's all about chunking especially in pharm.
