Periopdoc, any tips for those of us taking it in July? Congratulations!
Way to go. Congrats.
That was definitely a tough test.
There was a > 20% failure rate among the 385 people who took it, despite a minimum passing score of about 61% correct. I would be interested to see a distribution of scores fellows vs non-fellows, but doubt we will get that info.
it appears that for 2010, the 91st percentile was ~ 86% correct and 97th percentile was about 91% correct.
I knew I had some leeway, but I was sure sweating it a bit during the test because there were a bunch that I had to really think about.
I am horrible about recalling what was on tests and such, but I am trying to come up with some suggestions for future examinees. When I do, I will post them to this thread.

How about a recommended study reference/PTE study book? There are a few books out there, but some are >$100. I'm fine dropping that if it gets me a Pass, but I'd prefer not to thorw it away on a useless book.
Strong work. Jorg and the boys must be pleased with their pass rate since ACGME status has come into effect. Leaving town tomorrow.
Good luck over there, keep your boots dry and your head on your shoulders.
