Guest kf04423 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I just finished taking my PANRE yesterday and thought I'd post some things. I did the test with the surgical emphasis for the first time....glad I did. I found the surgery questions pretty basic and straight forward. I do work in surgery, but I don't think you would even have to. I used to work in Primary Care though and I found the rest of the test was very obscure. They pulled out questions I honestly still don't know the answer to because I don't know what they were asking...I realize every test will be a little different, but I have recertified 3 other times over the years and this one was the worst. I took a review course last year and prepared for this test, but i don't think it really helped much. What happened to testing over the basics? Things you need to know in any practice? Sorry to be so negative, but I just hope I passed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roguepa Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Curiously, did you pass and score well on the surgery emphasis PANRE? How did your score compare to other PANRE results? Would you still recommend the PANRE with surgical focus to an ortho PA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisday Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I have taken the first exam and every 7 years and passed. This years exam was obscure and not basic at all. I don't know why they make it so hard. This year I failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcosta Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Do you know the passing score for the orthopedic exam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
