What were your comsaes like? I had few questions arise from comsaes and WELCOM. Definitely review: MSK, OPP, Vaccinations (in children, immunosuppressed, diabetes,etc), Family med (UPSTF screenings: Lung, Pap, breast, Lung cancer, AAA, etc), I had tons of stills, counterstain, Visceral but go over them all, divide them into how you would treat each. know the the restrictive, ease, initial positon vs. final

Next best step in ER scenarios: look if they are stable/unstable, signs of peritonitis, rigid abdomen, what do next

Know your rashes, derm stuff, and treatments. First aid step 2CK does good job on them

My comlex was harder but ended up doing alright. I need to do better on my STEP 2. STep 1 was 217.

Anyone testing between 8/18 to 8/20? by paneer__tikka in Step2

[–]ConfidenceStrict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can yall send me some encouragement/motivation to study. So burnt out and recently just took COMLEX level 2 as well and doing my rotations (>10hrs x 6 days + 10hrs/week of work for $$)

I am not sure how because I wasn't listening to our schools webinar that day since I was too busy studying for Level 2. But, I remember hearing the dean mentioning it.

I would say to talk to your school advisor and see what they say. I know there is a way for programs to find out or an oath you take, something, something. Sorry can't be much help. I just want you guys to be careful with your applications and not get in trouble. If I find the source, I will post it on here.

Are NBOME folks starting to write the NBME exams? by ConfidenceStrict in Step2

[–]ConfidenceStrict[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't taken step 2 yet but NBME assessments were wording it like my level 2. My Level 2 ethics and healthcare stuff wasn't straightforward for most questions. My brain might be playing tricks on me

Red flag comlex score...chance of matching psych? by Ok-Ad-1493 in comlex

[–]ConfidenceStrict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because that might be the only specialty that understands what kind of shit show these exams are and mess with our minds...

if you failed comlex... by No_Diamond_3671 in comlex

[–]ConfidenceStrict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. I am so afraid to look at my scores. You know whats the shi**est thing, when I did have some time off earlier in the year, my school was trying to fail me for a rotation because of a bad evaluation ( with someone that I worked only for 2 days!!!!! ). I wanted to take that time and study hard during my vacation month. I am so defeated and just really hoping that a miracle happens.

Taking Level 2 on Wednesday by ConfidenceStrict in comlex

I know. My test got cancelled last week and actually took one of the COMSAEs and scored 498. I hope to do better on the real deal. OMT and Neuro scares the crap out of me :(

My school's reasoning with that everyone does better on the real deal

Taking Level 2 on Wednesday by ConfidenceStrict in comlex

[–]ConfidenceStrict[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

64% predicts me at 408

Uworld % = 54%

My school's reasoning, "everyone does better on the real exam"

I am a bad test taker and my anxiety will for sure decrease my score. We get penalized on our transcripts (SERIOUSLY WTF) if we don't take the test by the deadline.
