Hi Guys,
Anyone took the exam on Nov 18?
I had a plan to write my complete experience of exam. I don't know why people are saying all questions are long. I guess 50-60% of questions were long. There were many Psych long questions that basically were saying BS. But anyway, guys do USMLEWORLD,USMLEWORLD and that's that. I don't feel good/sure to pass after the exam. but feel free if you have any questions.
there were so many Peds-stats-psych Qs in my exam. but nothing wired just be very familiar with all USMLEWORLD Qs.

Thanks. I feel very bad as I am not sure how did I do my exam.
1. I only used USMLEWORLD and a little of MTB. I took UWA and my score was 226. there is no good estimate based on UWA. I took NBMEs way before my preparation and didn't have any to use recently.
2. I guess 10% of Qs weren't in USMLEWORLD. 3. I prepared on and off for a year but seriously not more than 4 months. 4-5 months is really enough if you do it based on your weak area and USMLEWORLD Qs.
Please pray for me, I don't have any clue how would be my result.

everyone says to harp on uw but i feel like Learning the NBMEs inside out is really important as well.
There r vague questions on that exam

thanks. I did NBMEs before, from my exam concepts of questions were more like UW than NMBE. As there are many vague Qs in NBME. and I should say the overall concepts are the same in NBME and UW. I will let you guys know when I get my result. Hopefully I can pass with a good margin!!
