Hi and a big shout out to all of our faithful readers and those who attended our course.The GAMSAT sits across Australia this Saturday 24th March 2012.
EmergencyOne started as the brain child of my wife and I late last year to help teach GAMSAT hopefuls a much needed and often neglected skill set for GAMSAT preparation. This blog has since had over 1300 visitors from the UK, Europe, India, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. I'd like to extend a huge thanks to all of you for your support and, in exchange, I'd like to extend to you my best wishes for your attempts this weekend.
Irrespective of your results, remember that this exam will be the first of many trials in what I hope will ultimately prove to be a long and fulfilling medical career.
The time has passed to undertake any meaningful study, instead spend your time honing your mind for the task ahead. Practice the questions, refine your exam technique and take the time to get yourself into a good head space. Read for leisure, meditate if that's your thing, exercise, eat well and sleep well. Don't waste your time with worry, it's a useless expenditure of energy.
I'm not religious, but you'll see in a previous post that I read some of the New Testament as part of my GAMSAT preparation many moons ago. Matthew 6:34 has always stood out for me. If you feel the urge to freak out at any stage between now and results time, you'll do well to consider it:
'Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself.
Each day has enough trouble of its own.'
Once again, good luck to you all.
