Tuesday Step 1...

Well its almost here... next Tuesday I will take the plunge and try to regurgitate all 5 semesters of useless facts. Then I can graduate the main forum and join this one. Wish me luck, and when I walk out of that building being done... wow... actual, honest to goodness, guilt-free FREE TIME!! When we took the simulated back on campus, I got done quicker than the 8 hours given. How long did you all take on your step 1?

Oh I really don't feel like studying anymore either...

I finished with a few hours to spare.

You're not going to really feel FREE until you know you passed.

You'll probably have a couple days of.. "crap, why did I put that answer" etc.. then the test will fade and you can enjoy yourself until your score comes.. good luck and enjoy yourself.

This board is pretty conservative when " I was asked to edit this, but was not an offensive word " gets edited..

Dude, you're not even allowed to use the first letter of a bad word on this board; I was asked to edit a post for just using a letter. Seriously. I'd be surprised if you weren't asked to edit that.

Good luck! I'm sure you'll do fine; just have confidence that you prepared as much as you could. No one ever feels ready. Oh, BTW, I don't find the information useless at all--I'm using a lot of it in my rotations right now.

He was. Waiting for him to do so, but in the meantime, edited your quotation box for you. I know I know, if it's a pain for you guys, imagine poor me who has to write all the nice please edit posts. Sheesh.
