I took CS about 3 mo ago. I worried about it for 3 months. I ran out of time during my physical exam for 3 pts. 2 others, I counseled incompletely and poorly because I ran out of time. worry, worry, damn worry. 5 hits out of the same pool of scoring... 5 pts I did not complete.

Got my score and did much better than borderline in every category. in fact, my worst section was english. maybe cuz i'm from tex-ass. So, if you did a good H&P, but forgot to counsel a pt or two on the evils of meth, get some sleep and forget about it. you'll be fine.

I can echo this statement. I had a similar experience with running out of time on a physical exam and not getting through counseling on several patients. I thought for certain I was doomed, but I did well above borderline on all categories.
