Just a couple quick questions about 5th semester in Miami...

2. How many exams are there in total?

exams

1. Pre-Test - doesn't count for your final grade but gives you a good idea of what you need to be studying.

2. PE Practical

3. Epi & Stats Written Exam (open book now apparently)

4. Final Exam

Is the final exam a Comprehensive exam of all basic science topics (like Step 1)?

5th

the exams during 5th are a pathetic waste of time. the only useful part of 5th is learning how to conduct a good H&P. The biostats part is very good, but the other exams are stupid

I would like to know more about the final exam in 5th semester.

Is the final exam comprehensive and similar to Step 1?
What happens if you don't pass the final exam on the first try?

P.S. any current 5th semester students or students who recently finished 5th semester who wouldn't mind me asking them a few questions, please PM me.

5th

Our structure for 5th is different than yours, so you should ask your professors how many exams you will have. I was in the 9-week program...there was no pretest. The biostats final is cinchy as long as you go to class and buy Epicize. The final was half multiple choice and half essay. The multiple choice pertained to large-group lectures, and the essays pertained to small-group. It's not like Step 1, but you should be studying for Step 1 anyway. The essays were harder than multiple choice.
