questions from recent Part I cbt (Help)

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Dear Sarita S,
I recently took the Part I exam in CA. When it was done, I just wanted to forget about it.
Anyway, I did try to put down some of the things I could remember about a week after I took the test. By then, I couldn't remember too much anyway.
I have listed general topics that covered questions I had to deal with in the exam I took on Nov. 23rd, 2004. Unfortunately, I am unable to be more specific for lack of memory of the test. I found that I was not adequately prepared for Microbiology and Biochemistry Sessions. But I answered all the questions, even if it meant wildly guessing.
I made this list for me to follow up on certain topics in the event of having repeat part or all of the test- this is all I will read should that time come. Hope it helps you too!

Hi guys,
My sincere advise to you all that, dont post the questions or clues in these threads as i came to know that the questions are repeating in that month or so. So it will effect the competition and it is not at all a good idea doing this. So i sincerely rquest you all not to post any questions.

All the best
 
Good people of SDN,

I am acknowledging concerns some have, and have shared, regarding listing of questions/clues from recently attempted CBTests and of how that will affect the competition.

While I sincerely regret fueling any unfounded fears of improving others’ chances at the expense of those who have already taken the exam, including myself, may I gently remind all that it is just an exam that each will do only as well as each answers the questions. If you know it, you know it; and if you don’t, well, you guess!
On the other hand, I strongly discourage being explicit about questions in an attempt to share your experience. Please do not compromise the the fairness of exam.



Dear International,
Kindly permit me to tag this reply to your PM on this post as well, hope you don’t mind.

Thank you for expressing your thoughts. Rest assured, no offense taken! I will clarify the date of my post being in December, not the same month as my exam. Secondly, I have taken care not to list any questions, merely areas that I have found needing more effort on my part. So, no fears!

Having said that, I do agree with your points stated. But, I have taken care not to be unfair in anyway. By posting my personal list of topics to reinforce, I am merely “paying it forward” to this community that has helped me very much through the insight of other members. I don’t believe it offers anyone an undue advantage to share in it, as it is not over and above things one would already read to be prepared for this exam. I wouldn’t dream of jeopardizing my chances of getting into school in anyway.

So, all the best to each and everyone. This Community is the BEST!!! I would gladly tell all my friends about it. Keep up the good work all.

Cheers!
