Thank god, guys I passed the exam. I was little skeptical about the results but ohhhhhh thank god....
I prepared for 25 days for the exam and basically did UW for it... practice with a partner or a phone partner is of reall help. First read first aid and try to remember diagnosis and investigation of diff cases then read uw in the day and practice with a partner in evening...believe me guys it helps a lot. as such on the exam day it is very important to stay calm. do not do any kind of hurry and come out of the room on time /after anouncment.i came out before time in couple of cases and missed imp points. I covered about 80-85% of the task in each cases and was polite with the patients. They see your bed side manners and presence of mind. So smile with patients but show sympathy to patients who r in pain and make them comfortable. Thats the key....last but not least is believe in yourself. outside the door tell yourself that this is going to be your best case...
best of luck guys
