all exam centers are same - theoretically - thats why they are called "standardized patients" nevertheless, many people have personal opinions after the exam that some SPs were not fair. while i sympathize with them, i do not agree that they were actually subjected to 'unfairness'. its just a skewed perception.

ive only heard horror stories w/ houston n la.... i'm not the superstitious type, but when it's comes to a life n' death exam like this....no reason to take a risk as simple as choosing a test center *L*

I took CS in Philly. Almost all SPs were nice, except for one woman who tried to be a little bit mean. Overall she was still cooperative (better than some real patients I saw during the rotations here). A couple of them looked tired or in pain so they didn't smile. Others were very friendly.

All centers are the same. I took my exam in LA and passed. SPs and staff could not have been more helpful
