Right now I'm regretting not doing the MCCQE part 2, if only because it would have forced me to start studying a heck of a lot sooner. It also wouldn't have been so shocking to me to find out there is a day of OSCEs as well as the day of SOOs.
This is the second time they're running the CCFP exam this way. It was run in the fall, no problems from what I can tell from my friends who wrote. That gives me hope that it won't be the gong show that the first computer based MCAT was.
So, this nightmare was one of those that make you feel totally helpless. The usual high school crap. I have been studying, but for some reason, haven't written any exams for the past two years and even miss the final exams. I'm looking at never being a doctor again, ever. Not only have I not written exams, I seem to have entirely missed several classes and was never able to find the text books. And, for some reason, I've moved back into my parents' home, along with all my siblings. There is no place for me to study and too many chores to get any studying in. Then, out of nowhere, zombie apocalypse. And I'm relieved? WTF.
I've been interested to see how different residents are choosing to study for this exam.
Some are studying at least 12 hours a week. Coming together in groups weekly and preparing their 99 problems to discuss with each other. Others aren't studying at all.
I'm just trying to stay on top of my clinic work, study when and if I get time.
I've stocked up on herbal tea. I've set up 3 study areas in the house. I have a back up cafe I can use plus the clinic when it's shut.
I've got this.
