The OSCE Revision Guide for Medical Students

Product Information

The following documents will support your preparation for the OSCE. We highly recommend you take the time to read these. The marking criteria available to trusts and candidates have also been updated as we are seeing higher numbers of candidates attempting to rote learn the marking criteria. This is problematic as they no longer approach the assessment with an open mind and in some cases find the assessment challenging when presented with new or different scenarios.The updated marking guidance are more holistic and will give trusts and candidates the key points that that all candidates will be assessed on. They should be used by candidates to confirm understanding of the different skills that they need to demonstrate across the OSCE but the standards, code, and blueprint should form the basis of all teaching and learning.

You will need to show the test centre your valid passport so that they can verify your identity. This must be the same passport that you provided earlier in your application. The organization also offers content on interpreting data. These comprehensive guides include interpreting ECGs, radiographs, CT and MRI scans, and ultrasounds. OSCE Stop also provides tutorials on how to interpret blood tests, urine tests, and even cerebrospinal fluid tests. We have also provided marking criteria for the relevant fields. Please note that this should only be used to supplement your education and learning.
