| - No, I did not know anyone. (D.E.)
- I did not know who was on the board of
examiners and I think to me it didn’t make any difference. Examiners are very
professional and scenarios are clear. Examiners has repeated the question
several times for me upon my request so that I can answer them to the best of
my knowledge and experience. (B.I.)
- I did not know who was
on the US Board of Examiners before I took the oral exam. The examiners that I had were very
professional and courteous throughout the process. I do not think knowing or not knowing the
examiners would make a difference on my performance on the oral exam. I did, however, like not knowing my examiners
because it felt like a clean slate, since they did not have any pre-conceived
ideas about me. I considered the oral
exam like a new job interview, where it was my chance to impress the examiners
with how I presented myself and how I responded to the questions. (K.N.)
- No, and it did not
make any difference. (M.M.)
- I did not know my
examiners. I think not knowing the examiners beforehand helped alleviate the
stress of being examined by peers that I already knew. (J.)
- I did not know the
examiners and I don’t think knowing them would have made any difference in
taking the exam. (H.E.)
- I do believe that I may have met one of the
individuals previously, through a mutual colleague. However, that did not play into my speaking
in the oral exam. (J.M.)
