Stepping To The Finish Line

Boooyyy am I glad to be on my last week of my Step Study Block. My motivation to study is reaching all-time lows. I’ve been having to force myself to stay focused during question blocks as of late, and I’m sick of having to review the answer explanations to the questions. The only reason I’ve […]

Gaining Ground

Well, I’m still studying for Step 2 CK. Nothing much has changed regarding that aspect of my life. My question block scores have been pretty stable this past week, with many more highs than lows.

Stepping Towards Improvement

I don’t think I’ve ever studied this hard in my entire life. Like, I’ve really been putting major hours in ever since this study block started. The only thing that comes to mind to compare this amount of studying to is the summer that I studied for the MCAT…but even that pales in comparison to […]

No Time For Baby Steps

Shoutout to Daylight Savings Time for completely disorienting me this morning. I woke up at 7:30 this morning real confused after my alarm went off…then I remembered that we sprung forward an hour, meaning that I lost an hour of sleep. Smh.
