I don't mind and actually I think it's better to do it your way. nod Maybe "regurgitation" is a popular word among moms only... grin

Sorry for such a late reply. Thanks for the response to my questions . I am done with my exam...and i dont have an idea how i did...guess waiting for the result is the only option available. Now gearing up for ck preparation. How about you? What are you doin these days?
THANKS AGAIN!

Hi, arlete. How are you? And how is Step 3 treating you?

I have a quick qn for you, please. When practicing cases on a fake SP, namely a friend, how do I go about it? Like, HOW? Do I give her the SP cases part of FA for CS and have her go through it to acclamatize? coz she's non medical. Or do I do an on-the-spot thing? But I feel that will take way longer.

Please give me your input. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks. smiling face

Paheli: I gave my helpers the first pages of the case, they read, and we started. Sometimes there were a few pauses, when they were looking for the answers they didn't know. Then we would go through the checklist together to check what I missed.
When is your test date?

hey guys! i was wondering if anyone knows how an eventual failed cs will affect the match? can i aplly in sept just with step 1 and ck and cs-failed? or is it better to retake cs (if i don't take it) and aplly in nov-dec for the match?
i took cs e few weeks ago in l.a. and i kunda.....sucked...sad. i can not blame it on the sps or 'the bad luck" -haha. i just haven't studied enough and i haven't taken it too seriously.

thanks !
smiling face

Thanks, arlete. So, I think I'll print out the SP parts and give em to her, so she can be a little prepared.

I'm really badgering you here, but how many cases do you think I can cover each day? I think it's a good idea to do FA cases at least twice, right?

I'm not planning to buy UW at present. Will just be using the free videos available on the net.

Please lead me through this. Thank you very much.
