Loooooooooooong Questions on the CK

[Leukocyte]

Did you guys read every word in each question on the test?

Did any of you guys use the "yellow marker" option on the test? Did it help?

I am a slow reader, and I always run out of time when doing UW questions.

Any advice?

Thanks.

hardly used the highlight feature. Sometimes I wish I could cross out wrong answers though, but they dont have a feature like that.

I dunno. Only questions I had problems finishing were those kaplan page long questions. Questions weren't that long for the most part on the exam. A good paragraph, not an essay.

I finished each block with a good 15 mins left on average.

They do have that feature. You can "gray out" all the wrong answers.

I find it helpful to read the last sentence first to get an idea of what I am looking for. It helped me on the exam. Also, some blocks are easier than others. I have about 10-15 mins left after most of the blocks except for 2 or 3 blocks which I barely had enough time to finish. You have to pace yourself well and keep moving along even if you come across a hard question. It also helps if you can remember most of the common lab values.

good luck.
