How's everyone feeling after today? My exam was heavy on foot ligaments and for path/micro/pharm there were 0 buzzwords. 40% of it i knew for sure 40% i was inbetween 2 answers choices and 20% i have never studied the information or seen it before
 
Yeah how was it everyone? Any tips to study for it? What would have you done different? Thank you in advance
 
I felt confident with at least 55-60% of the questions on my exam. I felt I think I flagged about ~70 questions lol. My exam was Path/Physio heavy (which is craaaaazy because they're my worse subject). I had a few pharm questions that had drugs that i've never seen before too- i couldn't even classify them. LEA had a few repeat questions that were easy and mostly on foot layers.

Definitely had at least 4-5 questions that were word to word similar to Board Vitals.

Just hoping for the best and making a study plan for my retake 🙃...
 
I flagged aorund 70 questions too. Mine was neuroanatomy heavy. Lot of paragrpah pathology questions. Not enough micro or pharm. LEA was liagement heavy and Knee heavy.

IDK, but may the odd be in all of our favors

yeah, hoping for the best. A lot of my classmates and friends from other pod schools said it was brutal for them as well.. so that's a bit more reassuring haha.
 
No Meazure freebie this year? I wouldn’t stress about it. The national first time pass rate usually stays about the same. They’ll put a massive curve on it since programs need to be filled.

I heard that a few meazure testing sites changed some locations without notifying students about the changes 🤣
 
Literally in the same boat, I had about 67 flagged and an extra 15 I had no idea about. My exam was acid base physio heavy/ligament & intrinsic foot muscles heavy/neuro and some stuff I never learned.

Honestly, shocked to see paragraphs and charts for path. Some lower was easy. Did not think it was that similar to BV and was definitely harder than anticipated. I think if they were going to have a long paragraph for a question they need to give students more time. Did not have time for second pass through on questions or all the flagged. :blackeye:
