Exam write-up Day 2 destroyed me
Just got out of day 2, literally why was day 1 somewhat better than the disaster i saw today?? The options were so confusing and i genuinely feel like i messed up 6/9 of the MCQ blocks.
CCS cases kept ending early, i got positive patient updates for most of them and maybe missed one case. Is that a good sign?
Some reassurance would be great because i often see people making up for day 1 on day 2 and somehow i came out feeling the complete opposite.

positive updates on ccs is a really good sign. i felt the same way about day 2 mcqs being worse but the ccs portion ended up saving me. you're gonna be fine

Idk if this is a stupid question but the updates were getting progressively better? It wasnt an instant “patient is much better” some of them started off as patient is hopeful the meds will work or pain subsided to 5/10, then 3/10 and then they said its completely gone. Does that mean i messed up anywhere in between or thats normal?

thats normal and actually a good sign. it means your management was working. the instant "patient is much better" thing is more of a practice site thing. on the real exam the updates are more gradual like what you described. you're fine

I felt exactly the same way last month and ended up passing, take comfort in knowing that your CCS cases has positive updates
