Here's what our previous delegates said

"The best thing for me was revision of anatomy from both prosections and images as now exam consists of images only but prosections helped with 3D orientation of anatomy which made things a lot easier. Also, the faculty gave a very detailed and honest feedback for skills sections which helped me make improvements where required."

"I thought it was really useful to guide my learning between now and the exam, as well as give me an idea of what to expect on the day. "

"The instructors were very enthusiastic and helpful. Gave me a good idea of how to organize myself for making sure I'm studying according to what MRCS B would expect from us in the OSCE. "
