I was predicted at exactly 112 and got a 116. Youll rock it
I've never given feedback that was not some form of "everything is perfect I really enjoy how much you've helped me grow as a physician yadda yadda" because I also have a strong self-preservation drive.I’m so mad. They just posted my eval for my first rotation and I don’t even have a chance of honoring my IM 1 rotation and we don’t have a high pass. My stupid school requires us to make a 4.5 average or greater in any competency assessed to honor a rotation. And my preceptor put that I gave feedback to interns/residents/preceptors more than half the time (4) instead of almost always (5), which (in addition to my other 5 and 4) nets me a 4.3 in that competency since it only has three domains. Most of the other competencies I have solid 5s on, and I got beyond excellent feedback during this rotation from everyone I interacted with. Literally only got four 4s across all categories and competencies, but two happened to be in a competency that only had three items, so...
I’m not mad at the preceptor at all - I’m mad we’re supposed to be giving the preceptors, residents, and interns feedback 100% of the time. Are you guys constantly critiquing everything your preceptor/resident/intern does? Because, you know, I have a sense of self-preservation, and the person that does that is a jerk and is going to get a bad eval in the professionalism department for being *that* guy LOL
At least I have a chance to honor IM 2 if I do well on the comat, since all I can do is pass IM 1 now.
I feel you. I’ve had a couple passes even when they thought I would get honors due to them giving me two 4s in a 3 item domain, even if they were my only 4s. They read the top and thought 4.5+ average across all domains would be honors. And for a while at the beginning of the year I thought so too until my first eval grade posted.I’m so mad.

Thats soo annoying. Damn im sorry. At least you still have IM 2! Did you want to do IM i forgetI’m so mad.

Um, what? I don't critique my preceptor/resident, I wouldn't even think that would be expected. The only feedback I give is thank you or I appreciate you taking the time to show me xyz. I would never critique them, that is a weird competency.
Yeah, either IM -> pulm/crit or rads. So it's extra annoying.
I wouldnt worry too much tbh! You have high board scores plus good evals/comments. Thats mad frustrating though. PCC and rads are great fields. Assuming youd be applying to uni/academic IM places
I believe they extended eligibility too like USMLE. Knowing NBOME, though, they may require you to fork over the extra $15.
Makes sense. Look like there are not any open June dates right now, Idk when they start scheduling though its probably super early. Nice to have everything paid and registered for though.
USMLE says “6 months out” you can schedule.
I was able to find one at a different testing site around the same time. Ill check back periodically to see if my original choice opens up. Feels gross to have boards set up again lol
I think we have to wait
No, I don't think so? I'm already scheduled for both Step and COMLEX and they're both end of June. I'm not sure though.
Might be your school. KCU said no one is getting COMAT results for last week until first week of December cause of thanksgiving.
Maybe. I was never sure what say they had in reporting. They don’t tell us we just get it off NBOME website. But I don’t know if they have the ability to release or hold release of scores, or see them first, or anything.
www.nbome.org
Thank you for that. But also annoyed with them because my test was before the first period on that page, 17 days ago, and I still don’t have a score.COMAT Scoring & Reporting - NBOME
For anyone waiting on their COMAT score
you go this bro. and then you will be free.
Until I have surgery, and again at boards. I’m over standardized tests man.
We'll most likely have to do it in person too. Because you know..OMM being so essential and everything 🤢
They are supposed to be opening up a 3rd site so hopefully you'll be able to snag a spot there.
Tbh I don't know which I would prefer. An online PE just sounds terrible, I'd almost rather have it in person.
lol saw that when I logged on. I just assumed it was the ass hospital wifi at first
Welp my psych comat is still not up
I have 1 right now, I’d like at least two. I def took too much time between step1 and 2
I am taking Step on a Monday and COMLEX that Friday. I had 4 full days in between for Step/Level 1 and thought it was a bit too long, I was just so done after Step 1 haha. But I think 3 days will be better-- one day to do nothing right after, a day and a 1/2 to lightly brush up on OMM. I honestly would've done Monday and Thursday but the site only had M/F available every week.
108 is still really good. honors is 111 for you guys right? kcu?
112 I believe, just a really frustrating. Though maybe I’ll get closer and closer with each block and pull off an honors in IM.
