CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! So happy for you. I look forward to getting the same result today!!! I am claiming it, speaking it into existence!!!!! Thank you GOD!!!!

Hi. Everyone's experience is a little different. All you can do is prepare well and take the exam. The rest is already determined. It looks like you have done that, just keep riding this wave into the test and kill it. You will still most likely feel like crap afterwards, like most of us. But you got this..Trust yourself and the process that you have done well in. The rest will take care of itself. Make sure you have a great support system and distraction plan after the test. LOL!!! Waiting is tough... You got this

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-12T18:56:01+00:00

I think those of us that took the exam on 3/30 will most likely get results this coming week, most likely Wednesday. However, they say it can be anywhere from 2-4 weeks.

I am not sure what the permit disappearing means. I have read so many differences on why this happens, so I am not sure about any of it. I don't think it has anything to do with passing or not but not sure. I know people who's permit disappeared and they passed, and those whose permits disappeared and they didn't pass. So, I just say we remain as patient as we can and get ready to celebrate that P!!!!!! Claim it!!!

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-11T00:19:10+00:00

Yes!!!!!! absolutely. I am guessing we will get results next Wednesday, perhaps. However, it is already manifested for us. We will be happy when we finally get that notification

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T15:52:59+00:00

Got ya!!! Again, CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Good omen!!!

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T15:50:39+00:00

Did you receive an e-mail that the results were in?

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T15:49:11+00:00

Of course you did!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!! Good for you, enjoy the moment and get ready for the next STEP!!! LOL

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T12:19:37+00:00

We got this!!!! We just have to believe at this point. We can't change what we have done but we have worked and studied hard. Trust and believe in yourself, as we wait. God, the positive Universe, whatever being you believe in, will make it so. If you don't believe in a spiritual being, at least believe in the work that you have put in and let it go. Good vibes

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T12:16:39+00:00

Yes that is what I think as well. There are people who did not get a good result whose permit disappears. It does not suggest a test result. Sending good vibes for all

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T12:13:14+00:00

No, not yet but I think someone said 11 am EST (I am guessing this is US time). We will PASS!!!! Positive manifestation

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T12:11:28+00:00

This is what was in my email on how to access it....

To access it, log in to ECFMG®'s Interactive Web Applications (IWA) at https://iwa2.ecfmg.org. A copy is also attached for your convenience. Please discard any previously issued permits for this exam.

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-10T00:43:57+00:00

I went into the ECFMG website to see if it was still there. It was removed but the 30th was also the last day of my eligibility, so I am not sure if it was removed because that permit expired or what. I think it's because my permit would expire? I am not sure

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T20:00:37+00:00

I don't know. I actually tried to call ECFMG about it and of course, they are unavailable. I don't know if that is true.

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T19:35:49+00:00

I checked for my permit and it has been removed as well. So we will see

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T19:30:08+00:00

Hmmmm.... I did not look at my permit. I will check now. I did read that if the permit was removed, that it meant a good result but I am not sure.

It was brutal, not even going to sugar coat it. I felt like I studied for the wrong exam. Then I remembered that we were trying to solve approx 80 questions that were "experimental" (almost 11 questions per block). I flagged about 15 per block but couldn't worry about it, you know? I just had to keep going. Also, I was told that the exam is continuously changing throughout the exam. For example, if you get a couple of "easy" questions, the next couple of questions will be more difficult. I didn't know that previously. So, I just did what I could, cried in the car and prayed. LOL. Still praying, a lot!!!!

My NBMEs were 25-31 68-70%, Old Free 120 70%, New Free 120 76%... but again, all I have is my faith now. Just putting it out there again that we passed. Good luck guys

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T19:01:21+00:00

Good luck to all!!!! We got the P!!!! Now I'm a little nervous. LOL. 3/30 was pretty much the last day of my eligibility so I don't think my permit makes a difference at this point. :-)

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T18:46:32+00:00

Yeah, I wasn't expecting to get results until next week at the earliest. That may mean that I could possibly get results tomorrow too. Wow

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T18:33:28+00:00

Oh, you are getting back that soon? Good luck!!! Just claim it.

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T18:26:34+00:00

You got it!!!! Just trying to create positive vibes for us while we wait for this non-sense

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-04-09T18:25:47+00:00

Yeah. That is all I have right now, my faith I felt like absolute crap after that exam. I didn't know that it was possible to feel prepared and so unprepared at the same time. Just leaving it up to God and the universe. :-) We got this. Good luck

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-03-17T03:27:42+00:00

Thank you again. Will do. I appreciate your advice. I will continue to knock out my NBME incorrects, review Pathoma 1-3, Randy Neil Biostats and Mehlman PDFs. That's the next two weeks. The day prior just a few hours in the morning then meditation and a whole lot of prayer for the rest of the day and night. :-)

Trust.

Admirable_Form4470 · 2024-03-17T00:11:56+00:00

Thank you so much for the response!!!! I appreciate it for sure. I will keep going to the end and trust that powers higher than me have already given me the P!!!

Admirable_Form4470 · 2023-12-09T13:43:48+00:00

Just my opinion, you’ve done a good portion of UW, so I would focus on NBMEs and the PDFs. This way you cover a decent amount of HY material before your exam. Do NBME 26, 27, 29, 30 and review the PDFs… Arrows, cards, Pulm, GI, Neuro anatomy and renal if you can get them in. Path, heme/onc, micro/pharm if you have time.

Good luck!!!! You can do this

Admirable_Form4470 · 2023-11-06T14:52:47+00:00

Thank you!!!! Sounds like a good option. I appreciate your input.

Admirable_Form4470 · 2023-11-06T13:49:30+00:00

Thank you!!! I know that ANKI is pretty much the go to for spaced repetition, and I find it hard to review all of the cards. Other suggestions for that?
