Book Description

A companion volume to Rymer: Preparation and Revision for the DRCOG. OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) is a technique of assessment now central to the DRCOG examination. The student has to circulate past a number of 'stations' within a specified time interval and then answer questions on the case. Stations could be a photograph, a radiograph, a specimen, or a patient. Because of the time limit there is a technique required for success. This book gives students practice in OSCE examinations, comprising 4 OSCE-style examinations. Each consists of roughly 25 'stations', including colour photographs and radiographs. After each set, full explanatory answers are given. There is also a useful chapter on OSCE technique and the best way to approach this type of assessment.
