Prepare CS And stay in front of you PC, check available date every 3-5 minutes, then apply Be ready for the exam because the available date is 1-2 days before exam date. Good luck

CIS is about establishing rapport and talking with the SP and how you close the encounter with the SP. So i suggest, always walk in with a smile, and keep good eye contact. Always ask permission if you can ask them some personal questions, while reassuring them that it is all confidential. Ask if there is anything you can do to make them comfortable. And the talk them through the PE. and then afterwards, sit down or stand a respectful distance, and summarize what you think you see and heard. and then ask if they have an questions, and then smile and leave the room. Also it helps to practice with someone. anyone. i didn't have enough partners, but even the few times i did it, it helped ,e. If you are uncomfortable speaking English, then i suggest saying hello to everyone you encounter. Say good morning when you buy the newspaper. While you are at the grocery store, talk to the cashier about the weather. And smile. If the people are rude, then who cares? It will help. I was studying at the local library, and i spoke with the librarian. and i noticed that there was a tutor there teaching someone to speak english, so that's good too. if worse comes to worse, read the newspaper or magazine out loud to yourself. I was so very nervous and you can hear it in my voice.But i always smiled and made eye contact when i entered. Good Luck!

das123, i have only used FA for cs and i think it was a very good source. I took the test in Chicago, and everyone was really nice and helpful. so go for it! youll need 3-4 days for FA. best of luck to you

Hello, everyone. I was wondering what sequence would be correct ? Would be great if you guys can comment. Enter, Say good morning Mr XYZ, shake hands, introduce urself(saying I m Dr lastname and I will be your physician today), ask so what brings you to the hospital today, express empathy abt their problem and then ask for more details ??? Thanx for ur help
