Over 55 clinical and ethics-based cases and hundreds of interview questions are used as part of a spiral curriculum that covers common stations and helps to build a replicable approach to each station. It also covers important aspects of communication and presentation skills. The authors share their tips and tricks for scoring highly, helping candidates to maximise their chances and stand out in a highly competitive field.
