have been dreaming of doing this and finally i get the chance to.
i was so scared that i'll be writing the exact opposite,that is, "i failed". God forbid!
Well,read my experience which i wrote shortly after i returned from my show of shame.
i am not going to lie to those still preparing for this exam by telling them that it doesn't matter how many mistakes u make.u will pass.or relax bc most ppl pass cs.bc it's not true.some 99ers fail cs and average joes ace it.At the venue,someone told me that only morones or ppl who can't speak a word of english fail cs.and that's the kind of thing ppl say and u go in there thinking "well,i'm not a morone so i don't need to sweat over this exam",
pls don't take it lightly.personally,i had little time to prepare and i believed the"it's not a big deal" story only to come out traumatized.
i passed for only 1 reason.God wanted me to pass.Period.
because i have read experiences of ppl who did better than i did and failed.
so,plz prepare hard and pray even harder.

Eida, conragulations.
I took my CS on August 13 in Houston. First 4 patients I could not manage my time to finish, exam, so I could not give counselling for two of them. Third patient I said I will give counselling rideway, and I could not finish exam, which Iwas about to start to examine abdomen, and was the relevant one. I was very much embrassed to patient and try to make myself feel better to help him get up, I got warning not to get out on time.
After 4th patient I came out at least one minute before time, and I got suspicious about missing a lot, which I really did. For hearing loss patient I did everythingelse but simple hearing test for example. Patient was almost I would say angry to me, since I forgat only that.
I forgat to write very significant CVA tenderness BL in PN, while I went through History twice not to forgat anything.
So, I don't know I am going to pass or not, but I sounds good to know other people can do these kind of mistakes too, and result is good.
Good luck.
