Just took my orals this weekend. Was it just me or did you guys leave there feeling like you got rocked! I felt so prepared for the exam and was very confident going in but so many of the pictures seemed unclear and the examiners were asking some odd questions....did anyone else feel this way?!? Is this a normal feeling after this exam?!
 
Felt the same. The things I expected were not there (at least I think). I talked a few people, they felt the same. Not sure what to think
 
Oral boards are so much different than any other test you take its really hard to know how you did afterwards. I felt really uneasy after I took mine but did well. Hold your head up high and know that you are not alone.

I just took it too and feel horrible about it. All of my examiners were nice, but one examiner was really hostile. 🙁 I wish we could rate the examiners too.

They need to make it like step 3 patient simulations where a computer does the grading of the cases instead of a human being. 👍
