I thought there were gonna be 6 maybe 7 sections, but there were 8... 1 hour... sections plus an hour of break time. I brought a can diet coke but maybe I should have brought two.
So last week I did pretty well on the practice exam. I got 81% of the practice questions correct. I was hopeful that I could do that or better.
OH MY GOD... doubt it!
There were questions with answers I have never heard of. There were questions that took up a whole page (and thus much of my time). I guessed on many if not most of my answers.
I'm pretty sure I could study for YEARS and still not know many of the questions/answers for this exam.
And you know what... every damn residency committee out there makes me feel like my scores are all that matters.
I asked you all to pray and chant and ask the universe for me to get a 280. I don't think that score is even possible, but a residency director told me that I would only be considered if I got a 260.
Do you know how that makes me feel? It makes me feel like *I* don't matter.
And then I study my a$$ off to answer questions that I would probably never know the answer to even as a top notch doctor.
I wonder if one day this will be worth it... because it's not feeling like it ever has been or ever will be.
