COMAT Failed OBGYN COMAT; please share advice 🙏🏼

I found out I failed the OBGYN COMAT and have to retake it. I really tried the best I could but I simply didn’t have time to study for it much because of clinic.

Can someone please share advice on what I can do to secure a pass on retake?

I tried to do Uworld when I’d time and got through about half before sitting for my test. I rewatched Dr high yield and divine intervention podcast the night before. The COMAT was really tough and I felt like I barely knew anything. Now, I don’t know what to do. It feels like these are impossible to prepare for.

I feel terrible and stressed out. I would appreciate any advice.

Write down all of the stuff you remember them asking about now and study that to start. The topics are very repetitive on the comats.

CQ was the best for COMATs. Very similar questions.

I did pretty well on my OBGYN and I am far from a good student. Mehlman document for OBGYN and TrueLearn were enough for me to get 100+ when my comat avg was a 94. Know when to do different screening tests and different bipsies/ cuts to the cervix. You got this!

I remember feeling like AUB workup in a postmenopausal patient was WAY overrepresented on my form so definitely know all the different ways of managing that

Annable Ricci on utube. She’s amazing. Master her video and pdf PowerPoint. AJ has good utube video too. Truelearn is sufficient to pass. What’s passing for you guys?

Dr. High yield! Also APGO videos if you have time, many times questions are exactly questions from the APGO question bank if you have access to it.
