Answers to NBME?? ANYONE??

Hey, I wanted to go through the right answers for the NBME forum 1... Anyone have the answers? I know its best for me to look them up but i really dont have time...and i wanna see where i went wrong. You know, thats one bad thing bout NBME...how do you assess what topics you are weak in if they dont give you the answers!! Gets me mad!! For example: say the test me in Patho- they shod show me my wrong answers so i know what part of patho i'm weak in-- for example- repro or respiratory.

I had to let that out

i'd really appreciate it if anyone cod just reply to this thread...if they have the answers....
Thanks soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!
take care and good luck to alll!!!
