Oooooooooooooooh..

well,,where do i start?? im done with my CS and hope I pass....plz everyone I need ur prayers..

I think it went well,but nobody knows..I as worried cuz Im a muslim and wear my scarf on my head,,and when i went to the exam center i was the only one with a scarf on her head...

there were 2 SPs who were looking at me as Im weird..I dont know if its the scarf or maybe they do that to all people or maybe its just in my head,,,the rest of the SPs were nice..

What i didnt do:

didnt do the closure in 2 cases

forgot to ask about the social history in one case

maybe there is things I dont know I forgot

What I did and proud of: hahahaha

closed all other cases and asked if they have any Qs or concerns.

shaked hands,smiled,washed hands,draped,socialized in every case

Asked most Qs needed,answered challenging Qs well,did phisical exams completly

good eye contact

i dont know what else

so hope everything goes ok

my advice: try to be calm so u can know what u want to do....cool

Good Luck everybody...

Yay! Congrats, relax a little bit... Some SPs looked at me as if I was strange too, so I think it's what they are told to do. nod

I've been quite busy these days..I did not attach to my schedule as I had planned and now I feel a bit anxious..but I'm fine, in general..still here, with all of you.
I'm done with Medicine, Surgery, Peds but Ob/Gyn and Psych still remains.. and I'm taking my exam in the last days of jule..i know it's a considerable amount of time but I need to do USMLEworld as well. do u think it's enough time?

I felt very happy that you did well in step1 and wish u the best for CS and the match. I'm taking my CS in august, so I might need your help with this later, if you don't mindwink

I promise to be more active in this forumnodsmiling face

  #14

Ofcoarse i dont mind,,,I hope I ll be done with CK so I can help u more.....

good luck buddy


  #15

Yarab99, Inshallah you did well, sounds like you did great, I've read many experiences who have done less and still passed, so don't worry!

I too wear Hijab, am just wondering what center you tested at? I'm sure that is not a problem, I did my clinical rotations here in Chicago, and there was at least 2 -3 Hijab wearing women in each hospital that I went to, either students or residents, so I'm sure they have seen many before us!nod

Good luck in your ck prep, and please keep us in your prayers!


  #16

all the best
