very anxious!

So I took the test a few days ago and feel like I forgot soooo many things, like counseling on smoking, asking about depression in one case, ect..anyone else feel this way? Any advice would be appreciated!

Yep...I felt like that after coming out of every encounter. I passed.
I"m sure u did great. In my first encounter I even forgot to listen to patient's heart and lungs....it was a neuro case so I just did the neuro exam and totally forgot to do the other stuff just becuz I was a little nervous.
U'll be fine.

The 2cs was supposed to have increased in difficulty to pass as of july 16, 2006. Did you take the exam after this date.

I took it on Tuesday. I heard that the cases weren't harder, just the scoring process.

well I did take it earlier, but from what I read about scoring now on ECFMG site I dont' think people who speak english well and communicate with their patiens well will have any trouble.
I studied from First Aid and prcaticed witha friend for a few days.Thats it.
