I don't have the official word yet, but I think I passed my Pathology mid-term today.

By a very narrow margin, I might add. The margin of success was eighteen questions. I missed fifteen, according to the after-exam student review. My fault. :blush: Dermatology is my downfall. I studied too much on etiology and not enough on clinical presentations of dermopathological afflictions.

Some good vibes would be nice.

:hi: everybody!

1. ugh, pathology!

:hug:

Good vibes!

Does the prof grade on a curve?

[Aristus]

2. No. The whole program is competency-based. If you don't pass, you don't pass.

End of story...

3. Please explain this to me, honey.

"The margin of success was eighteen questions. I missed fifteen, according to the after-exam student review." What does that mean?

:hug: I hope you passed.

4. There were ninety questions. I could miss eighteen and still pass.

I think I missed fifteen, so it's looking good. This quarter has been very stressful and busy, but the Pathology exams had everybody nervous.

If I passed this one, the remaining two Path. exams this quarter should be all right. Cleared a big hurdle today, but not by much. The good news is now I know how to modify my studying technique to do better next time.

15 answers wrong out of 18 and still pass? What the heck?" :hug:
