I took my test last tuesday 12 on PA ..

Use UW and w'll more than fine ..! prepar yourself to deal with nasty SP, and answer the q ..,the time is note a big issue if you focused on the main probleme ..

I had 12 cases , and i don't really know which one and how many were experimental ... !!

i had one problem that's bothers me a lot .., i did many scratchess on my notes ...!! i was so confuse how to organize my notes ....

Is anyone knows about this scratching thing ..? is 't bad ..??

Thanks ..

and good luck to you all .

by scrathches u mean scribbling and crossing off with your pen right ? I did so on two of my patient notes - pretty bad crossing.

That feeling of unsurety is always there after every USMLE step :-)
