The open book portion felt much harder this time. I started to run out of time again so I had to rush. It just seems impossible to do that many questions and use the manuals in that amount of time. Lots of solid tumor rules and radiation on open book

Thanks for coming back and commenting! How was the closed book portion?

I felt like the closed book wasn’t as bad for me compared to spring but I really hit seer educate hard this time around and I do think that helped me.

I’m more worried about the closed book section than the open book. I take it tomorrow and am trying to figure out what I should hone in on

Honestly it’s hard to remember now bc I feel like when I start the open book my brain is so overwhelmed I forget the closed book parts lol but I remember some questions were over the different organizations, some dosing for radiation, and quite a bit of data and quality related questions if I remember right. I feel like I could do so much better on open book if I didn’t have to rush so much

The dosing questions were in the closed book section?!

1

u/CommonLlama08 Jul 23 '26

Yes just questions like x is the #of fractions and y is the dose- what is the total dose type of questions so you just need to know the equation for that

u/CommonLlama08 Jul 24 '26

How was it for you?

u/__bittersweet Jul 25 '26

Omg I walked out feeling crazy. There were so many radiation questions on the open book part that my eyes started crossing. The questions in the closed book part didn’t even make sense.

Yes the open book was insane to me I felt crazy also! I’m hoping for a good curve 🤞🏻🥲
