AMC Clinical: Crash Course

Description

This intensive crash course is designed for final-stage AMC Clinical candidates who need structured, high-yield revision before the exam. Based on real exam recalls, examiner expectations, and the AMC Clinical Handbook, the course is a streamlined, practical guide to confidently navigate the most common and challenging OSCE stations.

It’s not about cramming—it’s about strategy. You’ll learn what examiners actually want to see, how to structure your answers for each domain, and how to manage your time, nerves, and verbal fluency in the exam room. Perfect for candidates who have done the groundwork and now need to polish their performance.

What You’ll Learn:
  • Rapid-fire revision of all key case types: counselling, examination, diagnosis, and management
  • Use recall-based strategies to approach unfamiliar stations with confidence
  • Recognise common traps and critical errors that lead to borderline or failed stations
  • Align your responses with AMC assessment domains (Communication, Cultural Safety, Professionalism, and Medical Expertise)
  • Maximise marks in the 8-minute OSCE format with focused delivery and clinical reasoning.
What’s Included:.
  • Recall-based video case discussions across all case types
  • Domain-specific tips and model answers
  • Examiner-style feedback and performance insights
  • Time management and verbal fluency strategies
  • Access to structured revision content across medicine, paediatrics, obstetrics, surgery, and psychiatry.
