Guys I have a question.
People say CS is about speaking decent English , if you do you pass.
But I wonder how important is patient note and history gathering.
If you speak good English have good communication skills can you fail because of patient note? I just wonder how important it is?
Thank you

absolutely. The note is half the exam.

I posted a good pt note outline in this thread, along with some questions to ask for specific diagnosis

agreed. my friend failed because he didn't study for it, assuming it was just an english exam. so practice and take it seriously.
