Anyone take the new Step 1 (starting May 9th) and can give some feedback?
The website says each block will vary in the number of questions but never more than 40, just wondering what the range actually was?
They say the questions are going to be pretty much the same, but I heard something about the questions being longer and more application style, less straight memorization, wondering what it was actually like?
Anything you have have done differently to prepare for the new structure?
Taking it in a few weeks, just want to get an idea of what people thought of the structure
Thanks

OK so I did it yesterday... 6 blocks 40 qs 1block 36. Longer questions....not much biochemical not much embryo or histology.... much more clinical. And yeah . More time but longer questions. Hard to prepare when pretty much everything else is 46 q 7 blocks..... I wonder how they r going to grade it since app I have to wait til July 13 to get my results. It sucks!
