			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><div id="replacement_post_message_1181229"></div>hello usmle aspirants, we are a group of people had been helping our friends since year to pass USMLE step 2 cs at first attempt, and now we are extending this guidance on a higher platform to help out all those who cannot afford 3500 bucks of kaplan for 7 days..!! <br />
<br />
Highly needed tutoring for all who need to brush up or begin their cs study, and for those who cannot find the appropriate study partner! We are recent grads who REALLy took kaplan coaching to pass cs this year at first attempt, and would like to share our skills with those who would like to learn all that kaplan stuff in 2 days for 250$. We include hands on practice ( We hate telephone teaching, which is not worth for CS exam!) patient notes practice, and expert feedback when you pass through the SP encounters. <br />
<br />
We work only in weekends in NJ, NY, PA or the most of the north east area from where you can travel to NY or NJ for your 2 days of practice.<br />
<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><div id="replacement_post_message_1177522"></div>Okay, so, super bummed I failed my CS, attaching my evaluation for all to see :).<br />
<br />
Is the &quot;information sharing skills&quot; referring to my information sharing with the patients? Because if I remember correctly I was pretty slack with my closing statements, didn't tell them my differential or explain workups etc, pretty much just told them I had an idea as to what it was, and would be in touch in a couple weeks. <br />
Of course now I know I was wrong, went in way under-prepared. Took way too detailed histories, didn't practice PN's at all. <br />
<br />
Not gonna happen again, taking it again in two weeks, doing a ton of practice sessions with students etc etc. Going through FA again and again. Just wondered if the &quot;information sharing&quot; was what I thought it was. Any tips specific to my failure (evaluation) will be much appreciated.<br />
