South Yorkshire Primary Course
Key Points
- We advise our trainees to take the primary at one year - after a year you will have mastered the clinical basics enough to talk about them in an exam plus it gives a reasonable number of attempts should you fail the exam
- The course is based mainly on passing the SOE.
- We have moved away from didactic knowledge lectures after discovering that our MCQ pass rates were very high - trainees tended to fail the latter stages due to problems with execution in the exam
- You will be enrolled on the course automatically
Plan
- Pass your IAC and get used to being an anaesthetist for six months
- Rotate to your new hospital - start revising at this point
- You will attend the "Introduction to the Exam" session - this will scare you and make you work harder
- You will be attend a series of SOE practice sessions
- After passing the MCQ you will attend more SOE practice sessions
- You will then attend the real SOE/OSCE - you will be battle hardened by all the practice and so your stress levels wil be much lower and you will have a better chance of passing!
The Course is run by Dr Sug Siddiqui, one of the TPDs in the South and a Consultant at Barnsley District General Hospital
