Margaret,

I sense your intentions are somewhat positive, however, I felt that in your last post you were questioning my effort and desire to be a doctor. I wanted to make it clear that I know what is ahead and I am dedicated to my calling. I also have a desire to make PR work and would just like some insight to what I can do differently and what it feels to have the information "gel". I again don't want to portrait myself as a victim or continue to defend my effort. I think 16 months of MCAT preparation was some effort on my part. I continue to work on my PRing and activating on a weekly basis, for I have not given up (or intend to give up). I appreciate everyone that has supported me. Thank you Margaret for your insight.

You know the only person you responded to was [b]ME What does that tell you? There were 3 other posts to you w/ stuff for you to do.

I know why you chose to respond to me. Don't just lightly pass over your selection of adjectives and adverbs. You chose to use the word whine & to talk about PhR's potention instead of yours

Now you wrote to me in this last post: I just need to make Photoreading work for me and I was hoping that someone may have the answer for me.

Again you are using victim-type vocabulary. You want PhRing to work for you instead of you tackling PhRing and making it work for you. Subtle? Yes. Big difference? Yes.

Again you are hoping for someone to have an answer for you instead of you determining what you need to work on. Do you realize how much info has been put out there for you over the past? Tons. But, the info won't work for you because you want to unzip your head & have someone put it in.

I'm saying this for your own good. I have been mentoring a young man who is now in his 3rd year of residency. You are in for one hell of a time if you don't take the bull by the horns NOW... IT ONLY GETS HARDER IN MEDICAL SCHOOL AND RESIDENCY AND THEN BOARD CERTIFICATION It does not get easier. More material, more responsibility, more decisions. MCAT is nothing compared to what is coming your way.

good luck, my friend[/B]
