Minor Q: What size are the computer screens?

[DoctaJay]

I know this really doesn't affect how the test will go but I'm practicing my UWorld questions on a huge computer monitor, and it looks great, but I was wondering what size the computer monitors are at the prometric sites?

I would think it varies, its not THAT standardized.
They are centers all over the US.
But you can go back and enjoy your nerdy
dual 24" monitors👍

LOL. Actually i'm only 3/4 nerdy because I have a dual 24" and "17.

The center I took a practice test at in DE had a ~ 15-17 inch screen. (My laptop is 13", and it wasn't tooooo much bigger than that). Each computer had a set of headphones for the audio questions and a set of those noise-canceling headsets. Chair on wheels (with cushions! woo).

I heard some places still had CRTs! I haven't been use to one in a while. My eyes would be going nuts!Who knows what refresh rate it is set at. 😱

Curious to know what resolution they put the lcd ones at. Maybe 1024x768?? I have a tough time looking at text in high resolution. 15" LCDs sound about right just basing an assumption on prometric's budget 🙂

I doubt they will change any of the video settings Probably a good idea to see what you're going to be staring at for 8 hours!
