MKM's BLOG-OLD

"If you aren’t going to say something directly to someone’s face, then don’t use online as an opportunity to say it. It is this sense of bravery that people get when they are anonymous that gives the blogosphere a bad reputation."

                                                                                                        Mena Trott, Times Online, 12-06-06

I have been writing for ages, but my blogging experience has been sparse.  I like the quote above from Mena Trott because it reflects the way I feel.  I want this site, my book(s), etc.  to be helpful and supportive.  If any of us have something to say then let's say it with integrity and caring.  There are enough snarky comment opportunities on other sites.  Humor is always welcome.  I know . . .  you know the difference.

Changed A Few Things On Our Website

Never a dull moment . . . Removed the ASK Dr. Miller area on the home page and added the question: What's your toughest challenge in preparing for USMLE Step 1?  Also added an area on the right side of the home page for former students to provide feedback.  All comments are welcome.  Changed the twitter username to "AimYourBrain".  We added a free download area as well.  Good luck studying.  If you have any specific questions, just use our "email us". 

ASK Dr. Miller?

OK, here's your chance.  I've added at link on the home page that allows you to ask your "burning" questions.  I will be sure to post the questions and answers so that everyone can learn from them.  I look forward to hearing from you.
