Took it Monday, agree with sentiments above about K&S being minimally helpful (did it 3x)- except Maybe for one question on lysosomal storage. It did force me to cram the erikson/Mahler/piaget stages which showed up a few times.
BTB was invaluable I thought for the majority of psychiatry questions. Very little neuro which was disappointing given amount of time I spent reviewing. Definitely some questions that were WTF regarding quality improvement, some of the dynamic questions were straight up bizarre though most were straightforward. Probably marked 5-10 questions per block.
I felt ok about a good chunk of the stand alone, but we’ll see in 3 mos. the vignettes were mostly ok with a few nebulous questions. Stand-alone questions were much shorter in length than anticipated so finished with plenty of time. Congrats to everyone who took it this year and good luck to future test takers. so happy to be done!
