CK Timing

Hey guys and gals,

I am currently using UWORLD to study for CK, which I will be taking at the end of the month. A few of my classmates mentioned that the question stems on the real exam are much longer than those presented in UWORLD. I am trying to gauge my timing while I study so can anyone who has taken the exam weigh in with their thoughts/advice. Thanks!

If you can handle the timed block on uworld then you will probably do fine on the real thing. But, without a doubt some of those stems have an ungodly number of sentences - especially in questions pertaining to the softer sides of medicine. The best practice for the real marathon is building up your endurance with uworld blocks back to back in timed mode.

I thought most of the questions were about the same length as uworld. As mentioned above, the ethics/psych questions were the longest and had lots of unnecessary details but I felt like I had to read every word...I finished with about 3 minutes left for most of the sections but I did not have enough time to review all the marked questions
