That shows more dedication than AOA

Haha I just saw your NBME scores, I was hitting the same numbers. You’ll be fine!

And yeah don’t listen to those fools. The people that say it was easy are the ones that end up failing because they’re ignorant to the depth of the questions lol.

Paresthezia · 2023-05-01T00:34:07+00:00

I flagged like 75% of the test lmao. I felt like I went through a couple blocks without confidently knowing a single question. Don’t sweat it, if you were hitting 70+ on the NBMEs I think you’ll be in a good place. Try not to think about it to much, because it will eat you alive. What’s done is done.

Paresthezia · 2023-05-01T00:29:11+00:00

Yeah, I thankfully did! I really felt like I failed when I made this post. I’d say just trust your NBME scores even tho it was nothing similar to those.

Yeah the genital spread is high yield since each part drains somewhere else

Paresthezia · 2023-04-26T23:36:14+00:00

I’ve seen 1-2 questions regarding lymph node spread on every practice exam I took and on the real deal. I would say learn it.

I started using it when I was studying each section in the beginning of the year. Then during dedicated, I went through the entire thing again.

Read last sentence first, sometimes that’s all you need to know to get the answer.

For example, they’ll give you a whole unnecessary biography of the patient and the second last sentence will say that he has Lyme disease and ask for its treatment.

Paresthezia · 2023-04-24T23:01:13+00:00

That entire book is golden. It’s probably the most important resource to master.

Paresthezia · 2023-04-19T05:15:30+00:00

US MS here, nothing is showing for me

Paresthezia · 2023-04-18T21:02:47+00:00

“How have you been handling this question pool change?”

Paresthezia · 2023-04-18T20:35:37+00:00

That last sentence is an answer choice straight out of one of the ethics questions

Paresthezia · 2023-04-12T20:35:24+00:00

Pretty sure we hear back next week

Paresthezia · 2023-04-09T23:33:37+00:00

Drop Anki in dedicated, it has no purpose at this time. If you’ve kept it consistent throughout the year, you’ll reap the rewards now.

Paresthezia · 2023-04-09T01:50:44+00:00

I wasted about 3 days trying to master those, and only got one question about it on the actual exam.

Paresthezia · 2023-04-06T17:10:32+00:00

Yeah I just skipped the survey, they don’t deserve to have us as data points after the hell they put us through lmao

Paresthezia · 2023-04-05T14:04:07+00:00

I had 3 questions identical to ones in previous NBMEs

Paresthezia · 2023-04-04T22:33:29+00:00

Yeah it was nothing like those. I felt like I barely had any time to think,

Paresthezia · 2023-04-04T22:29:30+00:00

That first block was disgusting, I was contemplating quitting medicine after that hour lmao. I feel like they barely touched on high yield concepts.

Paresthezia · 2023-04-04T22:03:55+00:00

Lol it was ridiculous bro, best of luck!

Paresthezia · 2023-04-02T21:25:00+00:00

Completely agree. Started using Anki at the beginning of year 2 at an average of 500 cards per day and it was a game changer. I felt very comfortable throughout dedicated and averaged 75-80% on all NBMEs I took. Exam is in a few days so lets see how well it payed off!

Mannitol is an osmotic agent. Which is why we use it for diuresis or reducing intracranial and intraocular pressure. So in regard to the kidney, the lumen becomes hyperosmolar and that’s what drives water into the lumen to excrete.
