Buy a book. It's cheaper than the $1500-$2000 it will take to repeat the test.

the way not to fail is to buy a book - you need first aid for step II at least; personally i think step up is better, with first aid for psych and OBGYN, and a question source (UW).

In the time you spent posting you could have done a search to find a hundred other posts with your needed asnwers.

By the book

Listen people, this thread was started so that I could get a Cliffs Notes version of the First Aid CS book. I can't commit to reading that thing.

Come on, cut a slacker some slack.

It's not that hard to read. I read all of it last night in preparation for the school's benchmark OSCE (fake CS).

I thought that First Aid was the cliff notes version of medical school.

So I'm taking my CS in late Dec after a month and half of no clinical rotations. Should I be nervous that I might bomb CS because I would be rusty?

Please let us know how you did on the test, I'm interested.

In all seriousness, yes.

Be sure to read FA for Step 2 CS, and review your notes on how to do a "textbook" physical - i.e. the 4 places to listen for heart sounds, etc.

And NEVER listen through the gown!
