·       Whilst we will provide most answers or resources to assist you, we aim to make you think about the topic and develop your own answers, which will be invaluable when you are sitting the Stage 2 assessment and OSCES.

•  An example of a question we will not answer:

 “Can you let me know which cranial nerve palsy results in a ptosis?”

Our reply would be: “please firstly watch the BV tutorial (as the answer is in there) and ask us any questions you may have afterwards.”

•  An example of a question we will answer:

 “Having watched your BV tutorial, I am not clear as to why a 3^rd nerve palsy results in a ptosis. Can you please explain?”

Mock OSCEs and practical workshops

A refund will be made if cancellations are received, in writing at least 2 weeks before the event. We regret that any cancellation after this cannot be refunded, and that refunds for failure to attend the event cannot be made, and bookings cannot be transferred to other events.

We cannot take responsibility for any equipment or paperwork that is left at the venue after the coure has been completed.

The mock OSCE ticket should only be booked after successful completion of  Stage 2. If no confirmation has been received about Stage 2 results or if a resit is required, we will be unable to provide a refund or transfer if this occurs less than 2 weeks before the event.

The mock OSCE ticket can only be used on your first attempt at the OSCEs (face to face or online).
