Hi, guys!
I just took my cs in chicago. I cannot drink and eat and sleep...I feel so stupid. I made a huge mistake. It was in the end of the exam I was tired and I sad a word in my native language. It was for just one second it means"again" I didn't blink and I sad "once again" really quick but I feel mortiified...Are they going to fail me? The SP raised her eyebrows at first but then everything got normal. I don't know what to think. I feel awful.
Do you think there is any chance of them not failling me???
Thank you!
The rest of the exam, I did the usual stupid stuff: had problem with otoscope, didn't do closure in 1 case, patient hated me in 2 cases and ran out of time a few times. I had no problems with diagnosis, did PAMHUGSFOSS every time and failed to do a couple of exams: didnt do CV exam in all cases. But that mistake is killing me. Please help!

Hi Ferekide,
I wish the best. I have not taken my CS, so dont know about your problem.
My exam is in 10 days. I only wanted to know if all the cases you got are in UW and First aid? Because I think I am not that good in diagnosis Did you get any cases out side these materials?
Thanks a lot. Best of luck for your results

Thanks guys! Cases were UW and FA like, so don't worry about that! I couldn't come up to 5 diagnostics every time because of lack of time but that's that. Good luck on your exam!
Do better than me!

hi ferekide, you should call them and ask them directly about it.
I think there won't be any trouble.

hi ferekide
Did you get the CS results? Let me know how you did it.I HOPE YOU DID WELL
And by the way i had the same problem than you had.I'm an IMG too.I think i was so nervous,and it was only a second..i said something in spanish that means "of course" while i was washing my hands..it was only for a second, but i keep talking in english. My heart became crazy..i had an arrhythmia i think! I suppose that is because is so hard to express feelings in another language when we are so anxious.Hope you pass and hope i pass to!!
A question here: where can i find how to build a resume or a CV to apply for residencies? Which one do we need? Curriculum or resume?
Thanks!!!
pd...1) I get a partner from buddies.com...Thanks Digital doc for your web page, is amazing!!
2) There was a lot of IMG, and locals at the Atlanta center, and every body was friendly!!!

Hi ciap - dont worry about making a resume or CV - for ERAS - all you have to do is fill in the blanks in their pre-build sections and they build up the resume electronically on their own...
glad that USMLEbuddies.com helped u ! I was wondering if people are really finding it uselful or not
