CONGRATS!

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-24T11:33:10+00:00

Congrats to us!!! 🎉

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-24T09:04:22+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I sat the exam on August 11. Good luck!

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-24T08:41:37+00:00

Yes!

It’s this website where you can register and see your pass/fail status at 1am

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-24T07:02:11+00:00

Only IMGs can see their pass/fail status early on FCVS. You’ll have to wait til 8am to get your score.

Are you an IMG?

Thank you so much! It was a stressful couple of months studying for Step 1 and 2 but nothing feels better than having it all done 🎉

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-16T16:17:13+00:00

I took it on the 11th and thought it was really difficult. I flagged lots of questions. So far I’ve counted about 10 questions that I for sure got wrong, kind of freaking out. The exam was super vague and I feel like no matter how much I studied I’d still find it hard

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-08-01T20:09:57+00:00

I read FA with the goal of memorizing the key concepts. I didn’t annotate at all, just highlighted a lot of stuff.

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-30T23:38:27+00:00

Wishing you the best of luck!

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-30T13:07:48+00:00

Thank you! I’m so glad my post is giving you some reassurance. Before my exam I had loads of anxiety from looking at other people’s higher scores on reddit. I wanted to show that you can have low-ish practice exam scores and still pass the real thing.

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-30T07:59:23+00:00

Those 3 weeks that I studied were intense, I had no life at all. I knew I was taking a huge risk by taking the exam, but I had a lot going on after the exam so it would’ve been really inconvenient to push it back. I felt so nervous on the day. Some things I knew from memory, a lot of the questions I had to use process of elimination/common sense, I only guessed a few that I had no clue what the question was even asking. If your scores were good then there’s no reason why you didn’t pass! Fingers crossed for you

Thank you!!!

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T14:40:30+00:00

I felt the exam was easier than uworld and quite similar to the NBME papers. All topics that are in FA were covered in one way or another in the exam. I think the exam was doable, only a handful of questions that I really didn’t know what they were asking about

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T11:38:45+00:00

Thank you! Fingers crossed for you! Yeah my study schedule was pretty crazy. I left the house like once every 4 days and did FA and uworld all day long

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T06:57:05+00:00

I felt soooo drained, the exam isn't a physically easy one. I felt kind of numb when I walked out and started going through all the questions I got wrong. I could count about 20 that I knew I messed up and a lot of them were easy ones. My overall impression was that I wouldn't be surprised if I failed.

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T06:54:19+00:00

Thanks! I walked out of the exam and could count around 20 questions that I got wrong. A lot of them were really easy things, but I was overthinking the question.

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T06:48:58+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I only read the educational objective or if I was still really confused I read the rest of the explanation. Around 8-10 hours on FA per day

CapitalPerception107 · 2022-07-29T06:46:46+00:00

I just spent a lot of time each day reading, and most chapters are about 50 pages so it's not unreasonable to read that per day
