How much does CCS account for final scores and how many cases can u afford to get wrong and still pass. Also if u get a case wrong i.e the patient does not improve will u still get any marks for the approach as lond as u did not do any major blunders
CCS worth 20% according to Kaplan lecture.
Had patient on CCS near death if not dead when time ran out...still passed. First Aid and USMLE booklet gives a great breakdown of percentages as to how the exam is scored. I think my score report was similar to my score report breakdown on NBME (minus CCS of course).
