Hi to all!Today I got my quick results and decided to share my experience...Officially, I am around 30 years after med school in my country. (BTW, English is my third language so if I make some mistake, do not pay attention) I used to be an MD in my home country and after moving to US 12 years ago I started to passing USMLE boards and passed, but for a few years couldn't find a residency spot (I think mainly due to age) and for a while I gave up. But my husband talk me into a retraining school for MD to become a nurse and I thought why not? As the retraining school was also foreign it took me almost 2,5 years to get my ATT and take the test.I used mainly UWorld (this is the best resourse), read Saunders once, and went through med-surg book by Lewis, Bucher. also find an electronic version of the La charity Prioritization and last 2 weeks I found Mark Klimeks audios (which are awesome), and NClex study guide (which is floating somewhere on the internet). My overall on UWorld were 63% before doing wrong questions, first self-assessment I took right at the beginning - it gave me borderline passing; and second one I did 3 weeks prior my test. I got 58% and high chance of passing. Exam was...I don't know how to describe it even, some questions were very vague, I had around 20 SATA, 2 EKGs and 1 positioning question. No math, but a lot of Psych and I hate psych, really. Format was similar to UWorld but the phrasing of the questions were different. My exam stopped at 189. Did the PVT after 2 hrs and got a good pop up, but you never sure until you get the results.So, now I think I am the oldest one here and I DID IT!!!Congrats to everyone who passed!!!Good luck to everyone who is going to!!!If you have any questions feel free to ask!
