I'm going to study anyway, but just not that much. Senioritis setting in. Can you pretty much just wing this thing?

Any advice greatly appreciated.

I needed to, so I could be sure to ask enough questions from their check-off sheets. I didn't need to ask 46 questions to know the diagnosis, and I'm bad about stopping once I know, so I needed to know what other things I could possibly ask.

I'd just look at FA the day before and refresh your memory about differentials for common stuff. Other than that you're studying too much. Seriously.

I studied. I am not a risk taker by nature and after forking over that kind of money (for the exam and travel) there was no way I was going to risk failing and potentially having to do it all again (let alone the embarrassment that would be involved in said situation). Also, I hadn't really seen patients for like 3 months prior to taking it (EKG reading, radiology, x-mas break). I read almost all of the first aid over the course of 4 or 5 days before the exam. I thought this was more than sufficient.
