I wouldn't call them hard but I did worse on the ati's compared to regular lecture exams. I scored a 61.7 in peds (level 1) when I'm averaging an 88 in the class and a 75 (level 2) in OB when I'm...

You can try to fight it but I honestly don't think it will do much. They are quite strict with the rules for both the application and the actual program. It's tough to fight anything that's a printed...
I would discuss it with your instructor in addition to wearing a mask. I was recently ill with something similar on my scheduled pediatric oncology rotation and I was supposed to care for a cancer...

Congrats everyone!! It takes some time for them to make all of the calls so don't worry. Or you can be like me and call them and ask. I didn't technically get "the call" because I was too impatient...
