On this course you will be shown how to approach the different format of questions in both the Clinical Problem Solving and Professional Dilemma papers. We focus on knowledge areas which have proved difficult for past candidates including topics that you may not have thought about for years to maximise your chance of success in this assessment.

There is a timed mock examination for both papers which is sat under timed exam conditions to demonstrate the time pressures you’ll be under on the day. There will then be time spent going through the answers with the experienced tutors.

This is the first year that we have run a Stage 2 Recruitment course and so we have spent a huge amount of time researching and writing it.  This is to make sure the tutorials are spent going over topics that will really boost your marks, not just re-covering common topics that you’ll already know a lot about.  Check out our feedback from the previous courses.
