Hi everyone

Hope all are doing well. Has anyone seen or utilized the WQE flashcards from Mometrix for OKAPS or Boards prep? I saw them on Amazon but don't know anyone who has actually purchased them... The price is $99 so I don't want to get them if they aren't useful.

Hey there, I was wondering the same thing. Have you bought those flashcards? I don't see any replies. Did anyone ever answer your post before me?

I don't know anything about those flashcards but there is book Ophthalmology board review pearls or something like that which is in Q/A format if you want to quiz yourself. I've used it and it's pretty good actually.

They look fairly new. Has anybody here used them yet?

Hey, they're "Guaranteed to raise your test score." How can you go wrong right??

$100 seems a bit steep though.

Whoever gets them please get back to us and let us know if they are any good.

looks interesting.. and good thing is that it's new (2010)... most of the review books out now are old, i.e. 2004-2006... not sure if they're necessarily outdated..

fortunately the flashcards are sold through amazon... if you register for quantiamd and watch short 5-10 minute clips, you can accumulate "qpoints" which can be redeemed for amazon credit.. of course, save up for 80 qpoints to get $100 amazon credit.. not a scam and limited to physicians (MD, DOs) only. register here:

Thanks everyone. I hadn't picked them up myself.
Echinoderm - let us know if you end up getting them.

hey guys, got information directly from the maker of the flashcards.. samples can be found here: http://www.flashcardsecrets.com/ophthalmology/samples.htm

if you haven't already, sign up for quantiamd... get verified (i think requires an NPI number as it is for MD, DOs, etc only)... then start earning qpoints to be redeemed for amazon credit. join here: http://secure.quantiamd.com/home?u=yacxvbmv
