I recently got my failing score report and got low scores in ICE and borderline fail CIS I took this course in Georgia called medstarter, it was a total waste of time and money,
They treated us very badly and the instructor showed up late for class each day, and was disorganized and did not cover all the cases and made several mistakes while demonstrating. They Also failed 4 of my friends and they claim to have high pass rate yet mostly everyone in the class failed. Beware of this scam class medsmarter. They promised me that I would pass and I ended up failing really bad in ICE and scored lower in CIS as well.
here is their scam address 1172 Satellite Blvd, Ste 200, Suwanee, GA 30024
When i asked for a refund they laughed at me and didnt answer the phone
when i went to their location the facility was also very small and was not big enough to hold all of the students. THey only gave us a few cases in the practice exam which was nothing like the real exam, and the patients gave incorrect feedback on the diagnosis and physical exam. It was an utter waste of time and money
beware of medsmarter

yeah i also failed with trhem i failed CS in philadelphia center after taking the kaplan 5day and Medsmarter class in Georgia , medsmarter was totally ineffective, i didn't learn anything new from the class

i knew more before coming to the class... definitely would not recommend the company medsmarter, the class didnt cover enough, and i didnt get to practice with 12 different patients, the just had 3 patients for the whole class. yes i agree it was a waste of time. Some practice patients even said it was their first day and they were not sure about how to give feedback for physical exams and differentials. When i tried to get a refund they blocked my phone number and ignored me. Please avoid medsmarter at all costs

I am sorry about you experience but my advice - is to practice with yourself with billow and set a timer for yourself imaging the billow as a patient and next. Read this book has very true advices and if you follow it you should pass.
Also I heard some Centers of cs is not IMGs friendly - I took mine in Houston Texas -- it is the IMG friendly one - you follow this book history taking and practice practice practice and you will be fine

I only studies this book for CS in 12 days
