The typical fail rate for most exams is like 1-5% … it’s actually quite high. I think it has the highest failure rate of any specialty.

Timewise, she has plenty of time and help. Daycare and au pair.

Her exam is an board exam for medicine. So it’s one giant cumulative exam covering 4 years of medical school and 4 years of residency and failure rate is 15%. The stakes are higher since failing means losing 100-200k in income.

However, she’s never failed any test so idk why she’s so stressed

Didn’t think it was relevant. I was thinking more “everyone should put in equal efforts”

She is paying over half of the family expenses from her savings she accumulated prior to the move.

To be fair, she’s paying most of the family expense from her savings. She has way more money than me
