I'm doing ob/gyn right now and I want to know: is it worth it to try to retake the midterm? Even though my quizzes and midterm scores are low, they're still both above the class average. I'm worried that even if I try to retake it, I still might not pass. Besides, I would end up with a grade of 70 no matter what because of the way they grade retakes. Does anyone else have advice on the midterms/online quizzes and how to keep them from damaging your total grade too badly? Also, does anyone have advice for the ob/gyn shelf?

there is no guarantee you will do better on the retake. If your mid term grade is close enough to 70, I wouldn't bother retaking it. Do a lot of questions for the shelfs. Do the questions and read the explanations. This will expose you to the questions you will encounter.

Blueprints and Case Files for the OB shelf. It was my highest shelf to date.
