Hi, all,
I am looking for someone with tutoring experience in the Phila area for COMLEX Step2. I'm willing to pay, of course---esp interested if your score improved significantly with the re-scoring.
Unfortunately, I have taken step 2 COMLEX 3 times---twice in 2013 with the "old" exam and then in July with the "new" exam. I say New bc the exam I took in July was radically different from the 2013 exams. Despite being more prepared, focused, and performing much better on COMBANK, I still failed with a 393 (it was 395 before they did their score review). In July, the questions were longer, more confusing to me than before, and I ran out of time for the first time on an exam since the MCAT. (Did anyone else have this experience?)
The first two times I took it, I was balancing med student life with taking care of my dying father (he died from ALS a few months ago after 18mos w the diagnosis) and my young daughter. The third time, I was focused on school for the first time in 2 yrs, and I'm still *shocked* I did not pass this time. I don't usually do these forums, but in the absence of assistance from my school, I am reaching out. Please be kind in your responses. I need to pass this time; close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Thank you!
