Dont worry , I took Oneday kaplan course too before my Cs i think i took it 10 days before my CS,and i had it the same feedback.Kaplan is tough , they give u multiple things in one patient , wheras in real exam, patient will come in with one major complain, exam was easier than kaplan, so dont worry, I worked on my physical exam and patient notes,and i did mostly usmleworld, its great i would reccomend everybody usmleworld for CS , believe me , u can do it easily, just be confident ,dress professionally, I was amazed tosee some students there in thier Joggers and fancy sandles, tie ur hair back , dress neatly and dont forget to take a breath mint or something, make sure u smile couple of times , I even did some jokes with some SP's , so in the end, dont worry , remember PAmHUGSFOSS, and LIQORAAA, wash ur hands, tell the patient everything ur doing, onething I did , int he couple of patients, I did the counseling for smoking and alcohol right away when he told me that i ve been smoking or drinking for so long , that way I didnt miss any ....talk while wshing ur hand, and try to sit down , if the patient is not in Acute pain or something, lean forward little bit to show that ur intersted in his complain , and one more thing if u wont be able to pronounce his /her name properly , ask him as u enter the room , am I prounoncing ur name right , if not , he/she will tell u , leave rest upto GOD.
