How many Epi questions did you have?

anyone?:(

just took yesterday. Zero

i had about 7 or so, i was surprised yet happy cuz those can be easy points if you know the equations

i took it last month and just had 1, really straight forward

4-5, all easy, FA has all you need. I didn't have to do the math...answer choices are in formula-form ie 312/248+97 , etc

.

4-5 for me. as stated, answers are in formula form and are very straight forward. don't stress too much. be prepared for "how does lowering the cutoff value affect sensitivity/specificity?" otherwise know the basic formulas and you'll be fine.

Did they give you that graph for that question?

yeah. the answers were stock tho, like a) increases sens, increases spec, b) increases sens, decreases spec, etc. so the graph wasn't really required, just the fact that you know what it does.

Thanks! Were there any "studies" questions - like cohort, cross sectional, p value, confidence interval questions?

I don't remember any...that means I didn't have any or they were incredibly easy (probably the former). Either way, as hood said, don't stress on epi. just stop reading this thread:D , go memorize the few formulas in FA, and know you'll get them all right on the real test!

Good luck:thumbup:

yep, i had no types of studies questions.
