Those are posted by 2c2bd, go through and compare with yours, nobody has the right answers to NBME, the best way is to take at least 2 forms online(if you can$$) and see where you stand.

here is a link to the COMPLETE physiology that people have been looking for a while now, it has the complete renal, reproduction, endocrine...etc. If you are missing those you just download those topics to complete your collection, if not go ahead and download the entire set. Remember its a TORRENT so you have to be patient and also seed so others can also get it. I am only providing a link i am not the uploader all credit goes to my friend the_punisher for realeasing this.
Those of you who dont know what torrent is download utorrent from http://www.utorrent.com/ to be able to download the torrent.

Hello Everyone
Thanks to all of you for your informative posts on here. I had promised that after finishing my exam I will share my experince. Guys this exam is DOABLE. There are so many gimmies but then you have some that are just out there...and those you try to narrow down to two and click and move on.

My exam was a pretty mix of everything with a bit more pharm and path. The path, I felt like I knew the answers, but they take even easy cases and make them a bit more challenging. So if the answer doesnt scream out in front of you, quickly go re-read the questions and choose your answers carefully. My pharm was fairly stright foward. Every single pharm questions couldbe answered from first aid alone (even though I did kaplan pharm too). In my opnion the kaplan biochem and pharm books are the best things ever. Pharm is mostly basic MOA and major SE...I had an interesting question on this lady whose BMI was a 42 and they named the MOA of two drugs and you had to chosoe the two drugs...They wanted to know what drugs would help her loose weight and it was sibutramine and orlistat..I had some antibiotics (two questions on tetracylin one moa and one SE in a preg women--bone defects in the fetus). Two chemo drugs....one was moa of paxcitaxel and the other one was why would you use mesna (prevent hemorragic cystitis). But anyhow, as you can all see PHARM Is really stright foward. Just know your main drugs interactions...

Path....I had used goljan audios and unfortunately didnt have time to go over the RR book even though I had it....So i wish I had gone over the RR book...but the whole exam feels like path...I had a lot of smoking related diseases...focus on risks of certain cancers and exposures. Some nutrition....Zinc def would cause changes in taste and smell....

Beh and biostat not too bad...some questions were--what would you tell the patient....stat, mainly graphs and finding PPV, NPV...power of study

Physio--I thought some of the questions were tricky and hard...but its mostly graphs...so try skimming through the graphs in kaplan's book...Dr. Kudrath is great too (the guy that does kaplan physio).

Micro/Immuno....Micro was okay...most of the questions were stright ID...Immuno was so so...know the formation of a granuloma of TB in detail!!! Know all your major ILs and what they do...I had a question you give IL2 to this renal transplant patient....and what would it cause? hypercholestorliemia...hypertention...and some other odd choices and I had NO idea so I just chose something and moved on.

Anatomy/Neuro...it was okay...mostly neuro and images so please look at images for neuro, it will help you a lot. Look at blood supply and where different nuclie and tracts are..Brachial plexus...horner syndrome..I had a question...pt has LAD and RCA blocked....which artery would be best to graft? I put internal mammilary...

FINALLY. I CANT EMPHASIZE the importance of USMLEWORLD. I can't comment on kaplan qbank because I just used their books and not their Qbank ( i am sure its good too)..But world is a great learning tool. The layout/format of the exam is just like world....So when you're sitting in the prometric center, you feel like you're just taking another practice set of uworld at home (not sure if thats a good thing or not but it helped calm me lol). I had about 5 questions from world...

Anyhow...I am still uncertain as to how I did...I have all these mixed feelings and made very stupid mistakes.....caught some mistakes right when I walked out the center...so I ran back to ask the prometric center if I could change them and she said no...LOLLLLL kidding...Do not stress out over this monster...I had my moments of mine too but its natural...just stay focused and it will be over before you know it. The exam day is 9 hours but it flies so fast..>Get a good night sleep the day before and pack some good healthy snacks and drinks...I took a 10 min break after every block and it worked out perfect....Please keep me in your prayers as my exam is being graded in the next few weeks. Good luck to everyone!
