Hi Kristen 16. I'm willing to take my step 2 CS next February. Is that enough time time to study for someone who works 3 full days a week? What do you think about Goldusmle in NY? Should I sign up for the classes close to the exam date me or it doesn't matter?
Thank you in advance

hey kristen
it was ok not too bad, the first case I was little nervous but then whole day went so fast, don't know who was img or amg did not talk to many students it is not encouraged to talk too much at the cs so not to share case info. I felt confident after I left but now remembering some small mistakes and pn stuff I could of done better. I will know around 12/11
what mistakes did you make?

@youcefdr> next February gives you about 3 months and 2 weeks to prep for CS
ask yourself a few questions;
what is your clinical experience like, is it good do you know your differentials right off or do you have to look it up?
what is your typing speed? is it good enough for 10 min pn's?
I dont know anything about the live courses such gold in NY, I did my CS training in my College and then did CSEVideo online with first aid.
@ med26 my mistakes were things like not asking about comfort level, forgetting to tie drape back up, one sp was putting his own drape back up and I thought omg!, did not do Romberg or gait in a Neuro case, did not counsel on smoking in a pulmonary case. and some other things, but I passed so I guess it worked out
