The boards aren't about being fair to other doctors, they're not competing for a spot, it's about determining whether or not a resident is competent and ready to become an attending. In that regard I'm sure he displayed aptitude despite being late, with a good reason.
This was back when Kepner was a HUGE annoying pain in the ass. I was happy when she failed and then got fired. I am glad she came back and grew into a likable person.
I mean...what was April expecting? She barely talked about medicine. She talked about her sex life, her relationship with God, and she had a mental breakdown during the first session.
THANK YOU! I have never been an April fan. She also didn’t really have a great character arch. She went from annoying to being selfish and self absorbed. There was rarely a moment in her entire run on the show when I felt like rooting for her character.
This is currently happening to me this week , im having a crazy week recieving my gcse results that mark a large percentage of my gpa where i live , im really stressed
1:02 warms my heart. Alex giggling, glowing because he and his friends passed their boards. Just a moment of sheer joy, shock, and the weight of pressure/stress disappearing. Not to mention Yang and Avery dancing in circles 😂 Great moment.
I passed my board certification for my own profession this year, and I honestly don't find their exclamations and celebrations to be loud enough. I screamed in my living room and threw myself into my husband's arms when I found out I passed my BC.
I'm not sure if that is the same, but I live in Florida and SCREAMED when I found out I passed my Algebra 1 exam which is a graduation requirement for high school and I had been studying for that exam for MONTHS. My mom took me out to an expensive restaurant to celebrate :)
The first time I watched this episode I already knew who was going to fail. Jackson was distracted but he knew what he was doing. Christina is a genius and her character wouldn’t make sense if she failed. Mer was sick but she got all her answers right. Alex is passionate and a genius so there was little possibility of him failing...and good old Kepner answered her questions with sex and religion. For example “33yr old male with blunt trauma to the abdomen and gsw to the chest what do you do?” April: Jesus DOESNT love me and I had sex!!!
i just never understood why she looked so flabbergasted that she didn’t pass?? like she was literally talking about the lord and how she just got railed in the men’s bathroom. she didn’t answer not one of their questions like yeah you’re not going to pass 😭😭
It's funny how when they took the intern exam Meredith had to take her test by herself because she froze the first time around but then she passed the second time with the rest of the interns and George didn't so he had to redo his intern year. Now as residents Meredith was sick throwing up and everything yet she was able to pass her boards. Alex was late was still passed his yet Apryl flunked hers.
Yeah that makes no sense. The show literally made Meredith and Alex look like they got special treatment while others like George, Jackson, and April didn’t get any due to them not being ‘important in the show.’ That’s why they cut them out just like Izzie.
You forget George was finally able to re-take his intern exam and passed (which was a lesson for Weber to realize that he had to be more human if he wanted to make them good surgeons). Jackson had a pretty decent story and April was a hot mess the whole way through but ended on a solid note. @@leatonjenkins6810
@@heatherlory99 yes, having sex at 28 when youre having a mental breakdown anyway is soo chosing boys over pRiOritIeS. funny how jackson didnt make a bad choice but only her though. he made the same choice, his outcome was only different
Remember during her exam Meredith kept spilling her guts every 5 minutes literally and when they all frowned upon her she said "Common people we are all doctors here".
I really like the actor that played Kepner. Because she made me hate that character so bad... At the same time I feel bad because of her own upbringing made her who she was. Each time watching GA, I really dislike April but reminding thst she has quite a past, I feel somehow bad for her.
I was concerned about Alex , him missing his first exam and having to get a perfect score , I totally forgot about what a mess April made of herself , even when they were checking the results I was like ' they gonna fail Alex, damn it ' and then he passed 😄 but who failed? And then it hit me , APRIL 🤦🏻♀️
I actually liked April at this point. She was having a mental breakdown guys? Most real people would react the same! she was relatable and funny but also gave it her all. Overhated.
Who has a mental breakdown because they lost their virginity?To an attractive and good guy no less?..Boo freaking hoo 🙄..if anything she is overworshipped
@@judigemini178 I got to say it...Kepner was UNHINGED. She did not react normally at all like you said. Jackson checked in with April multiple times to she if she was okay. The show made it really clear that is was consensual. And what does she do? Put the weight of Jesus now hating her on Jackson's shoulders. She clearly had problems and baggage for herself that she unloaded on to Jackson. As a good surgeon, you would think she would have learned to compartmentalize things at this point, especially if she wanted to focus on trauma. Note, Cristina is dealing with a failing marriage and a cheating husband and Meredith is sick during these exams and they pull through. Alex was distracted and showed up late and aced the second half of the exam. That is more so a sign of the caliber of surgeons they are.
George, Izzie, Cristina, Erica, Callie, Arizona, April, Sadie, Addison, Mark, Lexie, Shane, Stephanie, Brooks, Reed, Charles, Nathan, Teddy, Julia.. like almost 20 ( or more ) people have left Grey’s Anatomy wtf
I hated the stupid Morgan's-baby arc tangent that they went on during the boards exam episodes, in a bid to smokescreen who failed, when it was dead obvious. The one with pit stains, that had a mental breakdown mid exam, and began talking about Jesus of course. It wasn't even close. But even more so, I hated that they doubled back onto a relatively ended story (Alex had cut ties and Morgan seemed to accept her kid is done for), just because they didn't have a storyline for Alex during the boards. It didn't even go anywhere, Morgan didn't even come back.
Bro me and my ex used to do that arm twisty thingy. I remember when the teacher was talking to me, him and our mates and we got bored so we stared doing that. Our mates and the teacher ignored us bc it was normal for us 😂
well it wasn't a surprise that she failed, i mean she was out of her mind in front of examiners. she was talking nonsense and that was disrespectful...
I feel like April wasmore so Izzy (if we're talking about OGs) since her emotions overthrew more optimal logic at times. George was emotional but kept a level head.
I mean was it any surprise that she failed??!! Other doctors have problems but the main criteria to even enter an OR is how calm you can be when shit hits the fan!! If you are self destructing under normal circumstances ( questions) then how can anyone trust you with a Scalpel??
What did April expect? She was talking about sex in the men's room, Jesus and all that crap in her board evaluation. I'm surprised she even got her attending scrubs and wasn't made to repeat her last year of residency
Dr. Jackson Avery, portrayed by Jesse Williams. Jackson came here when Mercy West Hospital merged with Seattle Grace Hospital in Season 6. He is the son of famous urologist Dr. Catherine Fox (formerly Avery), and a grandson of Dr. Harper Avery (the Harper Avery award was named after him). His stepfather is Dr. Richard Webber. The Chief in the earliest seasons. Jackson is married to Dr. April Kepner, portrayed by Sarah Drew (April is the last one to appear with shocked face), another one from Mercy West to come to Seattle Grace through the merger. They have a daughter: Harriet Kepner-Avery. They live in Boston presently.
What was this? They passed to become attendings? I’m on season 7 currently.. I like spoilers so I don’t mind people telling me what it is 😂 I know I’m weird for liking spoilers lol

I like how it's Cristina asking about Alex's result first. She cares :)
Alex was late so they knew he wasn't gonna pass but he did
It’s better than her caring. She respects Alex and honestly sees him as a great and talented physician
i like how christina and avery did the twirling arms thingy
:)
SAME I LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIP
They operated together on Derek with a gun pointed at them. Their relationship is so underrated.
this just proved how smart Karev was he didnt show up for the first part of the exam so he had to have a perfect score for the next 2 to pass 🤯🤯
I think the way he stood up for himself defending his action to put his patient over this exam hence his future gave him extra credit
@@susannekarnowka5889 nah they wouldn’t do that cause it’s not fair to everyone else
The boards aren't about being fair to other doctors, they're not competing for a spot, it's about determining whether or not a resident is competent and ready to become an attending. In that regard I'm sure he displayed aptitude despite being late, with a good reason.
And he got the best offer out of them all. I am actually feeling proud

I love when Jackson said "here, here, use mine" :)
This was back when Kepner was a HUGE annoying pain in the ass. I was happy when she failed and then got fired. I am glad she came back and grew into a likable person.
She was the George of the group. Remember George failed his first intern exam.
Did she though? ;D
Shut up
Faith Watkins George was likable
Early season george is waaayyy better than early season april. She was just annoying.
“Any of you on call?”
Alex, Christina, and Meredith: *NO*
Jackson: *NEEEEH*
I mean...what was April expecting? She barely talked about medicine. She talked about her sex life, her relationship with God, and she had a mental breakdown during the first session.
facts
True. I wasn’t expecting her to pass either.
Right. Idk why she was surprised 💀
I would have been surprised if she DID pass
THANK YOU! I have never been an April fan. She also didn’t really have a great character arch. She went from annoying to being selfish and self absorbed. There was rarely a moment in her entire run on the show when I felt like rooting for her character.
I love how everybody was waiting for Alex and Cristina actually looked concerned
He might be demonspawn but he's her idiot(brotherly) demonspawn
@@kedarraman6690 actually its evil spawn😅
@@itsjaydee7996 my bad but my original point stands
Lol Jackson didn't even say the word "no" when the nurse asked if they were on call. He just made a sound 😂
LMAO and i love how cristina didn't even turn around
"any of you on call???"
Jackson: *"EGHHHHH"*
lololol
I hate moments like this in my life. When I am waiting for results. My heart was beating and it is a tv shows
IKR. I practically have panic attacks. I can't sleep, or anything because I'm so worried.
I just can't understand what Dr yang says "if anyone has failed .... "

1 in 5 people fail the boards :'( poor april

This would've been perfect if George and Izzie were still around
Yes...😢😢😢
No they were the worst
Reverse Nekito ESPECIALLY GEORGE
@@jadelubin148 why?
Not Izzie
I love how Meredith looks up, like she's thinking she finally made it and she made Ellis proud

That’s what happens when you chose boys over priorities. She had a great character development though at the end
You sound like my mom when she talks to my sister, or any asian parent in general. LOL
homegirl literally did not. she was a virgin for 28 yrs. shes the last character that chooses boys over anything
@@MissFreakinLOL yet she still did

I just love how Alex smiled when finding out he passed. That’s how I felt when I found out I recently passed my edTPA for teacher certification 😃
Remember during her exam Meredith kept spilling her guts every 5 minutes literally and when they all frowned upon her she said
"Common people we are all doctors here".
they're skipping thats amazing love Dr.Alex's giggle
This was totally me during AP scores and SATs and College decisions tbh prob will be me again with LSATs lol
I was STOKED when I got 4's on my AP...I rose from a 2 to a 4 in a year.
the way Christina is looking for alex
I loved Cristina Yang concern about Alex result. Just imagined that he failed.
So happy Kepner is legit now :)
2016 and April is slaying!!!!
This was me when MCAT results came back. Turns out I'm a Christina Yang. :)
Lucky you...😂😂
Enzo Martinez thanks. Cause of coronavirus, everyone else I know is in limbo

She had a bad past? Did I miss anything yet ? I’m in 8x22
Thanks so much for uploading!! Love this scene!! Makes me so happy when I watch it.
I think that's like the first time they passed on a trauma.
I was concerned about Alex , him missing his first exam and having to get a perfect score , I totally forgot about what a mess April made of herself , even when they were checking the results I was like ' they gonna fail Alex, damn it ' and then he passed 😄 but who failed? And then it hit me , APRIL 🤦🏻♀️
Hopefully i'll feel this way when I get my LSAT score back next year!
Elizabeth Liu Did you?
willmenalove lmao I haven’t taken the test because I didn’t graduate from undergrad yet rip
Did you?
Closing the curtains and shutting out the day aka my life.
I mean yeah it was obvious but she actually looked like she didn't expect it
april is like me during my exams and tests 🙄
I lol'd so hard at April 😂
I love how Jackson became close w thm (not magic close but close)
Karev's crappy phone be like
April deserved to fail her boards. Did you see how terrible she was taking it lmao
This is me during final exams when I need a C to pass the class and I’m at a 72% going into a 200 point final that makes up 1/3 of my grade

Ya know what, April wasn't ready and she came back as a good person.
Failpril really had the audacity to blame Jackson when she was just incompetent 😂😂😂
Lmaooooo failpril
She blames Jackson for everything that’s why I don’t like their relationship
i wish izzie and George where there🤧
George, Izzie, Cristina, Erica, Callie, Arizona, April, Sadie, Addison, Mark, Lexie, Shane, Stephanie, Brooks, Reed, Charles, Nathan, Teddy, Julia.. like almost 20 ( or more ) people have left Grey’s Anatomy wtf
alex
I miss this squads chemistry.
They literally took everything to kepner. Ow my baby girl 😭😭😭
i hope the ending was to trick us and april's eyes were teary because she passed. i still have hope since she didn't actually say anything

crazy doctors crush the system looool
It should have been Izzie and George there, instead of whoever those people are.
This is how I feel every grade release date.
April is such a nice person but at that moment, she really messed up and made herself impossible to save even if the examiners wanted to
I never used to like April. But eventually I warmed up to her. Sad she left.
Bro me and my ex used to do that arm twisty thingy. I remember when the teacher was talking to me, him and our mates and we got bored so we stared doing that. Our mates and the teacher ignored us bc it was normal for us 😂
It would have been nice if MAGIC was complete and they all passed. 🥲
I am not a doctor so are they not allowed to ever try to take the boards again.
This is so cute
That NO was personal 0:28
This show used to be Sooooooo goood
I already knew April was not going to pass.
well it wasn't a surprise that she failed, i mean she was out of her mind in front of examiners. she was talking nonsense and that was disrespectful...
April could never fake it like George did his intern year. Her emotions are all over her face
I feel like April wasmore so Izzy (if we're talking about OGs) since her emotions overthrew more optimal logic at times. George was emotional but kept a level head.
Lol cute moment!
Did she pass? Or did she fail?! I must know!
she failed
shihoblade She failed, you can tell from the look on her face that she failed
I mean was it any surprise that she failed??!! Other doctors have problems but the main criteria to even enter an OR is how calm you can be when shit hits the fan!! If you are self destructing under normal circumstances ( questions) then how can anyone trust you with a Scalpel??
So she's still not board certified?
laurabadora414 she passed the following year
I missed Iz and George 🙄
Alex sure did type fast on that small and dinky phone.
Pour April on what?
So what kind of board was this, like the usmle step 2/3 or what??
it was for them to become board certified doctors. I think you do it during residency. the usmle and step 2/3 are during medical school.
Christina if any of us failed it would be me.
Gets an offer also
What did April expect? She was talking about sex in the men's room, Jesus and all that crap in her board evaluation. I'm surprised she even got her attending scrubs and wasn't made to repeat her last year of residency
I am Kepner. Always
To anyone who is a real doctor, is it really that bad to fail your board? You can do it again the next year, right?
They’re so cute togetherrrrrrr
I have to go back and watch this..who was,Jackson? What happened to him? I remember, Meredith, Alex, Christina, Izzy, and, George.

...like EVERY CollegeFinals Exam Ever......
Is this why she wasn't in the last 2 episodes of season 8
Shit this is me every time I wait for results! The worst thing in Medicine
So facs certification exams are conducted orally?
Poor April or Yay April?
Morgan pour
Screw April may is better
i never liked kepner not sad she failed
miss yang
🖤
Welp so izzie left 😭
Yay 😀
Lol Jackson closed his ears as Alex was checking the phone so cute.
and then they went on a plane and everything went to shit
😂😂April idk what to tell you Miss Chef Resident.
I wish she never came back. Besides Arizona she’s the worst character on here
WHAT shes one of the best characters there-
Oi
Their actings sucks. You can really tell that their happiness was inauthentic. Lol
