I have a question? How do you can pass the doctor exams? Is there any requirements? I got a bachelor degree in clinical medicine in China and I am F1 status in U.S. I also would like to try to be a doctor in the future. Could you tell me the requirements? Thank you very much!
I love the articles you wrote, those beautiful stories happened in hospital. They remind my precious young time when I was an intern in the hospital. By the way, our ages are same.
thanks, i will remember your words!
i am so excited, i will fly in ten hours.:)
take care.talk with you later when i come back!

Happy Chinese New Years to you too.
No, I didn't take the Kaplan course in any step preparation. But I bought the online course from WWW.USMLEWORLD.COM for one month for the CS. I only used for two weeks. The course provides SP cases and practice cases. It pretty much covers almost all the SPs you would encounter at the real test. Practise really hard and get familiar with all the cases will definetely do the work. I practised with the girl next door. Hopefully I will pass.
I was from Shanghai but attanded another medical school, SMU, you know, it is Fudan medical center now.
The best part of going back to Shanghai was to find out a close friend also back in town from Japan. We haven't seen each other for 8 years. Time really flies.
really, you are from shanghai too?! such a nice coincidence!
i just left shanghai about one year, so probably will not feel much difference there, i just miss my parents and my friends badly, well, food also.:)
i will register for step 2 and cs together as soon as i come back, hopefully it will come smoothly, they are so expensive, i will feel really hurt if the money wasted.:P
did you take CS training in kaplan? i am still debating about it.
thank you for leaving the encouraging words here, wish you a nice and warm chinese new year!

Thank you. I am at the end of my interviews. Still waiting for the CS score, pain in the neck. Hopefully I could get it by Feb. 23rd, otherwise I will be kicked out from match automatically.
Don't worry about reading now. I took three months off after Step1 and read three months to take the test. You will do very well in step 2 since you have done well in Step 1. Enjoy your time in Shanghai with your parents and friends. "Time flies. Spend most of it with the people you love most" I got this from a fortune cookie long time ago. Still remember it.
Actually I just got back from Shanghai four weeks ago. Kind of dissapointed with the changes around the city. But food is good and friends are nice to see.
Actually I am not that old enough to be your uncle, :-) and I just left school 3 years old, although I had been in schools for many years :-)
Last week, I was busy in helping my REAL niece in China in solving a high-school physics problem, which is not that easy, and took me almost 10 minutes to get it done :-)
I guess you are going to be a doctor soon, right? I am sure you will be a great doctor. Good luck for you!
BTW, did you come from Taiwan? I really love the pop musics from that island.

congratulations! You are half way there! You will be at where I am now by the end of this year.(actually, we have the same score. I assume yours is step 1 score.) Step 2 is much easier to read although not many good review books out there. (If you have time, check out the Swason's family practice, especially the psychiatry part)
Quick tip, schedule the Step 2 CS asap. It is definitely a plus if you have the CS result when you start to apply.
