When you're going through the first tutorial block, I finished all the questions, but when I clicked "end" it said, "This section is not complete, are you sure you want to go on?" So I said no, went back, thought I did everything, and it gave me the same prompt. I assume this isn't a big deal, since it was the tutorial questions? I was freaked out, nonetheless, asked the administrator, who said others had encountered the same problems. Does anybody know what I'm talking about?
Also, my mistake in taking the NBME exams was that I didn't spend enough time on them, because I just didn't have the patience (wanted to use the time to study). So, one week before the test, I bought both, took both of them very quickly (probably about 20 mins per block, didn't go over them, and if I didn't know it, I didn't really think about them) and ended up with about a 420...
I studied a lot of First Aid, about 6 times through, and the real exam seemed much more doable. I think??? Out of each 50 question block, when I went over (and spent all my time!!) them, I found about 30/50 that I knew for sure, 10/50 that I could narrow down to two and make an educated guess, 5 that I could narrow to 2 or 3, and maybe 5 I didn't have a clue on. I hope my range is better than what my NBME predicted, which was 195ish... ack!
Hope I get some replies- Thanks!
