awwwwh beary made me a birthday thread!
Thanks you guys.
The NBME wrote me and told me I flunked the ICE part of the Step 2 CS though 🙁 So that is a bit of a bummer.

That is a bummer, but at least it's post match so you can just retake it and move on. No biggie.
I'm a lttle concerned about failing the ICE part myself. I suppose I'll find out in a couple of weeks. How long ago did you take the exam?
Sorry to hear the bad news deschutes. I hope that the bad news didn't weigh down your birthday too much. I took CS very recently and am starting to second geuss myself. If I wanted to slap one of the SP for inconsistent physical exam results would that affect my interpersonal skills score?
Happy birthday to my favorite canadian!
What is the ICE portion?

I hope you had a good birthday, deschutes. 🙂 I will have to treat today as you pseudo-birthday.
Took it March 2 in Houston. They must be getting more efficient at score reporting!
I apologize to all - I actually passed. It was the Kahlua talking last night 😀 I was pulling Andy's leg because he kept asking me throughout March if I had any news.
Mrbojangles I second-guessed myself with every station! The moment I sat down to write the patient note I'd think of something I forgot to ask.
ICE = Integrated Clinical Encounter
CIS = Communication and Interpersonal Skills
SEP = Spoken English Proficiency
The score report drones on for the longest time but really doesn't tell you anything apart from the P/F grey boxes.
Thanks for all the birthday wishes! I am going on an extended celebration - sushi on the menu tonight. yaah why don't you come along? 😉

Kahlua belongs in mudslides. 😀
This Kahlua went into me! 😛bananaface said:
All in all though, I think I prefer clear to creme.
Just to clarify, the kahlua goes in the mudslide, then the mudslide goes in you. 😛

I don't recall this being the case. Maybe the Kahlua is still doing the talking.deschutes said:
Man oh man you had me fooled. Now next time you make a similar claim people will be thinking that you're crying wolf 😴. Well now that CS is over, all we have to worry about is Step 3. Can we all agree that Step 3 is a crock of ****?

I still have CK end April..... 😴Mrbojangles said:
If I really do study my butt off and still fail a crucial exam I think I'll go home, marry the boy of my grandma's dreams - and rot.
deschutes said:
Grandma has been setting up matches for you? You must either be Jewish or South Asian 😉. CK really isn't that bad.
deschutes said:
Does she have him picked out already? I always wonder who my relatives would pick for me if they had free reign.
Elisabeth Kerry?

It is indeed a river in Egypt. Thanks.deschutes said:

I don't think there is an elisabeth. Just Vanessa. My parents probably wouldn't pick her. They would pick a nice waitress or something.

parents setting you up = bad news.yaah said:
happened to me twice. wasn't my thang.
Close. South-east Asian to be precise 🙂Mrbojangles said:
When grandma wishes me Happy Chinese New Year or Happy Birthday over the phone she'll tell of my architect cousin who brought her Aussie boyfriend (Number 27 in the last 5 years?) home and then ask if I'm seeing anyone in med school. Thank heaven that's as far as it goes. When I go back I tear around so much that I'm never in the house long enough for any dates to be set up.
You can tell the neighbourhood that your grandkid is gonna be a doctor. You can't have your cake and eat it.
Every time I talk to my grandma she asks me if I have "any nice young men in my life yet."

Nobody ever gives me crap. I have a nice family.

I was in the ball park 😉. Those architects... they sure get around as soon as they utter the phrase "I'm an architect"... according to George of course.

that avatar is so yesterday MrBojangles 😉
I'm too lazy to update it. I certainly can't keep up with your weekly changes. Animal House was a good movie though. Maybe I'll find an avatar of Flounder.

I'm defending my Ph.D. thesis!
It should go all right (if I can ever get my seminar done 🙄 ) but I am just really looking forward to getting it over with at this point. Then I get to go home and see my little niece! 👍
