My Favorite Q-Bank Question Ever

Which tumor suppressor gene is found on the same chromosome as DCC?


HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!


SURELY YOU JEST.


If the first question I get on Step One is anything like this, first I'm going to lose all bowel control and then I'm going to put my coat on and leave the testing center.

Questions this post raised in my mind:

You mean you're going to put your coat on without wiping?

What if it's the second question? The last question?

Why is your bladder control tighter than your bowel control?

Who wears a coat in mid-June?

Why not fling poo at the testing center staff while you're there?




Good luck.

My curiosity over whatever you just wrote isn't quite enough to get me to click "View Post." If it's really fun, somebody else will tell me about it.

p53?

I got one that asked about a specific region of the LDL receptor gene and what is shared homology with...ended up being epithelial derived growth factor...thank god I know that now.

If I recall the answer to the original question is 18q21. It would not be p53, as that is on #17. My question on QBank asked which cancers were associated with this deletion (18q21 - DCC) and the answer was Pancreatic (and Colon, Gastric, other GI tumors).

Silly Qbank and their ridiculously picky questions

I remember the tumor suppressor question from Qbank. As I recall I copied the correct answer down painstakingly into First Aid, and then realized that there was NO WAY I was going to remember it. If I'd gotten that question on the test I think I would have followed Sac's excellent example (perhaps omitting the bodily functions portion of it though.... 🙄 )

You just have to concede that there are infinite minutiae out there, and at some point you just have to draw the line. That one went way, way beyond that line for me.

my favorite qbank question is the one that starts off with the brother and sister in a rural town who have 2 kids together. yay for consanguinity.

Not just one, but two kids! Once is a sleepwalking accident. Twice is a pattern.

My favorite thus far is the one regarding a man who is an MVA, tears the Bulb of HIS PENIS, and where does the urine go.

DCC is on the same chromosome as DPC (assoc. with pancreatic cancer)
Yep, got that question wrong too...although, I think I may have saw it somewhere in FA

My favorite question was one where it asked about what type of cancer the female patient had and one of the options was prostate cancer

Neither DCC nor DPC appear in the 2003 FA. Or maybe they do and I don't know, since A) the content in FA is scattered around like a hyperactive child was in charge of layout, and B) the index is an embarrassment to indices everywhere.

I'm with you on that! 🙄
