FAQs

I’m not exactly sure which day my exam will be during CASC week yet – would you be able to extend my subscription for a few days if I needed to?

Absolutely. We understand you may not have been allocated your exam date yet. If you find you do need a brief extension to access to the course up until your exam date just send us an email (prior to your exam day) and we will extend this for you free of charge. (You can extend your subscription up to a maximum of 7 days at no additional cost).

I'm a core Psychiatry trainee would you recommend this as a study tool?

Yes. We believe that preparing to pass the MRCPsych CASC actually starts at the beginning of core Psychiatry training. Candidates who are already ‘unconsciously competent’ in their interview skill always stand a much higher chance of passing the CASC in their first attempt as their skills are already adaptable to the pressure situations that commonly occur in the CASC. It can be more challenging to unlearn poor interview technique as you progress later in your training. Additionally, doing this whilst also learning the clinical content for the CASC inevitably makes preparation and performance much more stressful. As a study tool this course provides a varied exposure to the baseline standards of psychiatric interviewing and clinical knowledge expected in the MRCPsych CASC. It will allow you to accelerate the development of your own interview style so it is already natural and adaptable before you prepare for the exam.

I practice Psychiatry internationally, can I use this for my own post-graduate examinations?

This course is specifically geared for the MRCPsych CASC. However, as other international exams do use a similar OSCE format you will find the content relevant. Please take a look at our Pass The CASC YouTube channel to ensure the content meets with your own training curriculum.

How do I make the most effective use of the course?

1.It is recommended that before subscribing you have suitable seniors to provide you with individualised feedback on your performances during your revision.

2.Additionally, you must find a positive and enthusiastic study group with which to practice!

3.Decide how long you wish to revise for and plan to cover all of the modules during this period using our Revision Plan. We usually recommend starting with the specialities you have not yet covered or find the most difficult followed by the more familiar modules later in your revision to reduce stress and improve confidence as the exam approaches.

4.Each video is accompanied by a relevant tutorial which you can view as many times as you wish until you feel familiar with their content.

5.Practice the scenarios with your seniors, study group and where possible in clinical situations. Use our CASC study workbook during these sessions!

5.During the final period of your revision use the CASC Simulator programme to perfect your exam technique.
