What do yall think about this? lol maybe Im reading it wrong but I hope it doesnt mean more questions in the same amount of time aka less time per question

I do not know the answer to your question.... But the people in charge of MEd need to find a damn hobby. They can’t help but tinker with **** that ain’t broken.

sounds like when the AAMC thought the original MCAT wasnt good enough and A. made it harder B. more convoluted and C. longer. Im praying that minimal changes are being made here unless of course for the better but it doesnt sound like it

The wording isn't clear but it could also just mean those questions will represent a larger portion of the exam and is not referring to more questions in number. I guess those of us taking in the summer will find out!

My interpretation is that they will have the same amount of questions, but those topics will cover a larger percentage of the exam. Can't wait to find out this summer, hah.

Pass or fail steps 1 and 2 are coming.

Now, we DOs are equivalent to MDs

What do you think? 50% of that statement is true though. Up to you to determine which portion.

Idk man I doubt it will in my time in med school. But yes the second part is def true haha

Sounds like the usmle is gonna be looking a little more like the comlex soon

 

[DrStephenStrange]

Oh well, here we go again. Once again I get to be a guinea pig. First the MCAT, now the COMLEX and the USMLE. Great!!!
