Studying for boards

Ok, it’s set. I take my third set of boards (NBDE written, Part II) on October 10 and 11. By my count, that’s just over 2 months from now. I have a large box of “decks” — 1440 flashcards made by some very smart (rich) company and distributed by the Minnesota Dental Association. They have some errors in them — let’s hope I don’t memorize any of the errors.

I’ve been doing 50 of them per day, and hoo boy do they take a while to get through. It doesn’t take long to answer the question and flip the card (“yay, I got it” or “crrrap, I missed it”). It does, however, take a while to get through all the extra information on the back of the cards. In the meantime, I wish I could see more of my wife.

Let’s hope all this studying pays off.
