Description
Success in OSCE requires not just a sound theoretical knowledge, but an ability
to obtain a pertinent yet concise history, adroitness whilst undertaking clinical
examination and performing practical skills, and the ability to communicate with
the patient in an empathetic but informative manner. Some diligent and ingenious
students who possess the essential knowledge and skills, however, on occasions,
fail the OSCE. This occurs not due to lack of wisdom but perhaps because of tenuous
strategy. Meticulous planning and preparation is therefore essential to effectively
deal with each ‘OSCE station’ and this requires a clear understanding of the structure
of the exam, an appreciation of the commonly examined areas, and erudition with
the important topics. This book highlights the areas that the candidate must be
familiar with by providing a list of ‘mandatory topics’ and proposes some guidance
on how to prepare for the OSCE.
