Medicine Long Case disaster..

Pretty much sums up the whole thing. Medicine Long Case was a complete death-trap. And I fell right straight to the very bottom. :-(

Medicine Paper 2A

Okay the paper was very broad, very rushed like (&()*())(_^_* and I got my percentage of Beta Thal carriers wrong.. i remembered the beta-thal carrier rate as the HbE percentage rate .. SIGH i dunno WHY i keep encountering beta-thal and HbE .. first it killed me in Obstetrics clinicals and now this... i must have ruptured someone's spleen in my previous life. *((_*()_*_)()_(++_)++*(_*()_()_()()_(

Medicine Paper 3

Today's paper was quite ok .. i dun really like those shocking revelations like "appendicitis becomes meningitis becomes SIADH" or "infectious mononucleosis becomes Guillain Barre becomes reactive arthritis" experienced in Medicine Paper 2B. But all in all, both papers were very manageable and nothing shocking.. i wonder if that means we will be in for a shock for the subsequent papers and clinicals... all the Charcot-Marie-Tooths, Lawrence-Moons, Fanconis, Alagilles and Holt-Orams start emerging from their hiding places ... shudder* don't remind me of my HbE in Pregnancy case during my Obstetrics exam.. it was so unfair.

Anyway my classmates are really great.. everyone helped contribute some answers and questions so we can compile a set of beautiful questions for our juniors. hey i think our compilation looks so much better than the previous years lor... got proper heading, some pictures, and quite complete so more. Hah!

Onwards ho!

Medicine Paper 2B

Ok lor.. the paper was quite straightforward ( except maybe the paeds questions which tended to be a little funky just like the setters ).. although it got pretty nerve-wracking with that timer ticking away, and the waiting and all that... i tend to feel like peeing during exams , but that feeling goes away once i am doing the paper itself..

GOD.. there are like a gazillion more papers to go.. save me.
