Testimonials
“I passed the recent OSCEs. Ace the OSCE was awesome and really helped me in a lot of ways about sticking to structure and improve my station planning and also implementation of structures that were already in my head. This was my second attempt and I would like to thank everyone involved.”
“Multiple stations under exam conditions was amazing. Forced to have a structure to entering a room I didn't think I would get anything right in. SCBDs were the most terrifying - in a good way! Really excellent to get immediate feedback instead of ruminating. Loved Laura's session, huge amount of intel in short space of time, well delivered.”
“The mentorship style. Reflecting on structure and most of all learning a strategy for how to use the prep time well and where to focus attention per domains.”
“I had been terrified of the OSCE because I didn't really have a framework for how to tackle preparing for it. Dr Coggins' insight around these stations has been very helpful.”
“Brilliant course - thank you very much to the fantastic faculty for all of the time you dedicated to putting this course together for us!”
“Really well set up course specific to the OSCE, found it very useful and really have no negative feedback. Thanks!”
We’ll get back to you soon.
