I got 216/89 alhamdullah and i'm really happy. Not a steller score, but i'm still happy cuz i though i was too dumb to pass it, lol.... I had a really crappy education, cuz i'm from a carribean school and my school sucks(not going to say the name of the school cuz i dont want to get kicked out from school, lol). When I got off the island and came back to the USA, I basically didn't know ne thing. All of my preparation was self study. It took me bout a year(i wasted a lot of time, otherwise it would have been bout 6-8 months). My exam exprience was weird because i didn't get ne sleep for the whole night before the exam and so i just tossed and turned the whole night. well, i've been a silent reader of this forum and i want to thank everyone here for being so helpful.smiling face

Even tho i didn't sleep the whole night I was very fresh on the morning. I live in conneticut, but took my exam in New York City. Since I did UsmleRx, the format was the same, so I didn't feel nervous about the format. I felt like I was sitting at home doing the questions. The difficulty level was much higher tho. I did 2 blocks. Then I took a break and ate some sneakers and was trying to go through my notes(that didn't help tho b/c it was soo much). then i did 2 more blocks and took a break. ate more sneakers and drank red bull. this time I tried looking at notes, but I couldn't focus b/c didn't know which notes to read(moral of the story: don't look at notes and just relax during the break). Then i did 3 blocks in a row without a break b/c i just wanted to get over with it.
I got a lot of questions on Neuro(which i wasn't expecting). Also a lot of pt-physician relationship questions. and a lot of path intregrated with pharm and physio. I also at some weird biochem questions which i dont know wat the were asking for. Only a few micro(i wish i had more micro, b/c this was one of my strongest subjects). I didn't hva ne histo, embryo or anatomy. I had a lot of pictures(mri, ct, graphs and diagrapms). well i don't rem that much detail, but if u guyz have ne other questions just let me know.
