Here’s what you’ll learn in this month’s edition of the Physician Assistant Exam Scholars Newsletter.
• Why I decided to take my test in 2018 instead of 2019
• The difference between my definition of success and yours (and why mine’s better)
• Why memorizing entire blocks of text, diseases, their presentations and their symptoms is the wrong approach (I’ll tell you what how I narrowed it way down and got a score well above passing)
• The anatomy of test question and why it matters to your adrenal glands
• Two distinct types of test questions and how to handle each one like a pro
• The parts of the test to enjoy. Yes, that’s right enjoy. These spots can be like someone who sees a rose and doesn’t pause to appreciate it. The rose might as well not have been there. It could have provided a refreshing reprieve from the world, but you didn’t bother to take advantage. I’ll show you where to stop and smell the roses and maybe even break for a Snoopy Dance.
• How to “see” key terms in the exam (After taking my PANRE again I’m more convinced than ever, key terms are everywhere)
• What to do when you get down to two good answer choices. (Surprise, it isn’t get mad and pound the desk)
• A few seconds you can take that can tip the odds of passing well into your favor during the exam.
• The most important part of any game (yes this test is just another game)
• To master the key term loop for fun and higher scores. (I never realized that I even did this or how important this trick was until I started writing about it)
• The most important thing I do AFTER I’ve answered a question
• A sneaky way to crawl into the mind of the test writers, so you know what they think when they write the test questions
And so much more, like watching over my shoulder as dissect different types of test questions for you and show you exactly how I handle them, an exercise you can do on your own to be better at any exam and the difference between practicing medicine and taking an exam.
