MYSO doesn't seem too interesting compared to Mini-SO/SateliteSO. Its fine if you didn't take it. It'll come next month anyway.

I took it and was 90% THROUGH when it randomly reloaded into a 404 error page. I had to restart with 5 mins left so I didn't do very well. The test itself was pretty easy though I definitely would've finished.

... sciolyperson1 doesn't do disease, he was just encouraging discussion about this specific MYSO test in the appropriate subforum.
I think that MYSO looks very cool, it's a good supplement to actual competitions (probably not fair to compare it to mini/satellite so because they're completely different concepts). I might participate in later months.

Aw that sucks I hope you still had fun taking the test though

Yeah it was fun but I was really disappointed. Great start to the season though- there's nothing like a long test with a short time limit to get you in the SO spirit!

Does anyone know when the results for MYSO will come out?

They should've came out already today at 12 PM CT but I don't see them yet.

the calculations for DD are the hardest for me, also with the study types (case-control etc.) any tips?

You could do more practice problems of those types, make a table with the different study types and their different characteristics, or keep the formulas for relative risk/odds ratio on your notesheet and make sure you also include the situations they're used in and what they tell you. With practice you'll get it!
