Yo gang, what were your COMLEX 1 boards like? I had a version of the test that was really weird! It's like I heard that there was about 40% pathology on the test, but my version left out a ton of major diseases that I was sure would get at least some mention. There was quite a bit of pharm and micro on my version, lots of it the context of case scenarios and then questions about which bug did it and what drug to use. There was also a ton of stuff on it that I had never seen before! I just hope that half my guesses were correct! Tell me what went on with yours!

COMLEX writers convention.

Head writer to anatomy guy: "You! Give me an orifice!"
Anatomy guy: "Um, okay...external ear."
Head writer to micro guy: "You! Give me a bug!"
Micro guy: "Alright...E. coli."
Head writer: "Excellent...we shall put E. coli in the external ear canal..."

I really felt like the whole thing was written by MADLIBS.

So how do you guys think you did? Everyone I talked to after it was over was unsure as to whether they passed it or not. If I guessed well then I did well, but if not I guess I'll get to take it again!
