I got an extension to take the board exam due to illness. I no doubt failed. I failed the year prior too. Graduated in 15. My BE period is running out. I did Clive and Spiegel like 6 or 7 times. BTB. I am way freaking out. I think next year is do or die because of the 5 year BE period, it will run into the fall/winter for 2019 time slot. I studied 16 hours a day for months. The neuro, I am super lacking in. I have neurology for psychiatry, I looked at it, didn't seem specific enough. I saw a class in NY next summer to prep. So many psych questions are vague and subjective or don't provide enough info ie time of symptoms to diagnose. I am open to any suggestions. I am willing to put the work in. As stated in other posts I would rather be doing FP but landing a second residency is unlikely so I need to find a way to pass next year. I am not a great standardized test taker, but I am not a *****.
