A focused teaching day for Core Surgical Trainees preparing for the MRCS Part B examination, combining expert-led lectures with hands-on OSCE-style simulation to address common gaps in knowledge and examination technique.
Venue: Glasgow Royal Infirmary Clinical Skills Centre, New Lister Building
Room: Main Lecture Theatre (AM), Simulation Ward (PM)
Learning aims: To equip Core Surgical Trainees with the knowledge, practical skills, and structured communication techniques required to perform confidently in the MRCS Part B examination.
Learning outcomes: By the end of the day, participants will be able to demonstrate improved knowledge across high-yield surgical topics, apply anatomical and pathological understanding to viva-style questioning, perform core practical procedures under simulated examination conditions, and engage with OSCE scenarios using clear, examiner-friendly responses.
