Hey, sounds like you are doing things right, this is such an odd exam....and so much pressure....I'm waiting for my score and on pins and needles and still studying because I may have to again too. Never know.....anyway, kudos to you, sounds like you're really working hard....don't give up!

Where are you. How is your Exam? I am waiting for the conclusion of your preopartion. Please respond. We want to know a positive answer. I hope?

Sorry about the delay in getting back on VMD guys! I took a few days off for some much needed R & R!

Here was my experience with the monster (for hopefully the 3rd and final time):

Exam date: Wednesday, November 14th

You can read the previous posts to find my NBME and qbank scores.

Understandably under a lot of stress the night before (considering it is my 3rd attempt), I was unable to fall asleep until 2am which only gave me 4 hours of rest to last me the entire day of the exam. I had a huge headache the entire day, but still pushed myself through and managed to survive.

Material: Overall, the exam was evenly distributed. Obviously Path, Pharm, and Physio comprised about 60-65% of my exam.

1. 3-5 molecular questions per block
2. 3-5 behavioral questions per block
3. 5-7 micro/immuno questions per block
4. 2-4 anatomy/histo/cell bio questions per block
5. 5-8 biochem/genetics questions per block
6. the rest were path/pharm/physio or some combination of the 3

Time was definitely not a factor for me. I was finishing each block with at least 3 minutes to spare (which gave me enough time to go back and double check the math on the behavioral/epi questions).

I will rank the following blocks on a scale of 1 to 10 in difficulty (10 being the most difficult):
Block 1 = 3
Block 2 = 3
Block 3 = 10
Block 4 = 6
Block 5 = 6
Block 6 = 8
Block 7 = 10

USMLERx really helped. I found many of the same topics tested on Rx that were on my exam.

There were about 5-8 CT's/X-rays/MRI's/Drawings/Angiograms/EEG's, etc. per block. I had one question with answer choices from A to M (however, it was a very easy question and the answer was M; so be sure to start from the bottom on the ones with A to M answer choices!).

If any of you have any specific questions, please feel free to ask and I will be more than happy to reply. I know I'm leaving so much out. I will be anxiously waiting the next 3 to 4 weeks, and will definitely return to post my results (God willing for the last and final time!).

God bless you all that encouraged and supported me along the way; I will have all of you (after the Almighty) to thank for your kind words, advice, and good spirit.

HI immoitle cilia good job,good luck with ur score, how helpful was usmlerx in which subjects it was good what u thought about usmleworld
