Hi guys, I am an IMG, and took my exam on the 28th of may. I have been a silent observer, and you guys have beeen wonderful. When i came out of my exam, I thought I FLUNKED THE EXAM AND I KEEP REMEMBERING QUESTIONS i GOT WRONG, AND THEY TOTAL AT LEAST25-30. But ever since i started looking at pples experienccies, I am having some hope. A lot of folks who did well felt the same way, and I pray to GOD to give me a good grade. My exam was well distributed, but was not easy by any means. I had A lot of path/pathophys which Golgan helped, 1st block was not too bad,2nd block was better, 3rd block was like hell, and 4th was okay likewise5th and 6th.7th block was the worst, and i felt i was going to cry. I had a lot of immuno, which was good, pharm a bunch of silly mistakes, biochem same thing, behavioral was okay and a lot of Dr patient rel,few anatomy that was okay, neuro,wasnt bad,except for a few mistakes.Statitics had a lot of confidence intervals. Overall, i think I didnt have a lot of ridiculous questions, but the questions were not easier than USMLE world as some pple got. Ihave a feeling that they reduced the no of questions and made it less staightfoward. I had i heart mummur, being Mitral regurg, and a heart tracing which I got right I THINK. Guys FIRST AID, GOLJAN, UW , are very important. PLEASE PRAY FOR ME TO DO WELL ON THIS EXAM . When should i check my result? or do the oasis trick? took my exam on may29th.

i thought the audio thing start may 30th, but you did those... how should i be prepared for those tricky audio Qs? heart murmur... so confused...

I've read that all exams from may 16th to late June will have
a delay due to many people taking the exam in this period.
The results will be ready in july 16. Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Angel T, iv not got my score. I m just hoping and praying that they do something to that horibble exam, or else a lot of folks 'll b screwed. I v seen that a lot of studnts who took the new format are crying about the exam, so i hope they take that into consideration. I have not got my score yet and i guess we have to wait till mid july at least.

Hi,

Can anyone point me to the link that provides the information regarding the delay in reporting exam results this month (see Vasorum's post above)?

Thanks,

Lee

Kenny 40 do not do the oasis trick I freaked myself out that I failed but it seems they have not updated the scores yet, I took mine June 6th and I gotta tell you I did not know about the reduced q's and freaked during the test a little.

Man that thing was a night mare. For me Goljan and FA helped but I also took the NBME and got around 400's on them, I felt like I failed after ward! I dunno I know I got at least 20 wrong? maybe more?

I'll pray for all of us. Oasis trick does not work unless the score has been updated to oasis. As far as I know and understand our scores have not been.
