July 6 test takers, how are you guys feeling?

Exam Write-Up

First 10 blocks felt pretty okay for me. Flagged 7-9 in those sections. I didn’t take a break until after these blocks. After that, the test started convincing me that I knew nothing. Flagging 9-10 questions per block at that point. Wanted to say I was doing it conservatively by eliminating all other choices but underneath it, I felt uncomfortable and insecure. Not all my guesses were 50/50 and some of them were completely blind. Plenty of vague questions. Two that I immediately identified as experimental due to timeline inconsistencies.

A lot of questions felt fair but a lot of them were also very hard. The QAQI was cracked at times, containing terms I hadn’t seen before. Some close calls with ethics but also lots of handouts.

I feel like Katniss getting stuck by the tracker jacks. Totally delirious. AMBOSS predicted 25x and I scored 265 on NBME 16. It didn’t feel much like NBMEs. Completely disillusioned right now.
