OSCE practice made easy with our OSCE cases

The Geeky Medics bank of 300+ OSCE stations provides everything you need to practise your clinical skills and prepare for your OSCEs.

Our collection of OSCE cases includes a wide variety of station types including:

  • Clinical examination (e.g. cardiovascular examination)
  • Procedures (e.g. intravenous cannulation)
  • Communication skills (e.g. history taking, counselling)
  • Data interpretation (e.g. ECG, CXR, AXR, ABG, CTG, TFT)
  • Emergency assessment (ABCDE simulation-style scenarios)

OSCE cases with mark schemes and answers

Each OSCE station comes with a set of relevant questions covering key learning points such as further investigations, differential diagnosis, management and complications.

Ideal for students of all stages

Our OSCE bank (a.k.a. OSCE cases) is ideal for students at all stages of training including those wanting to practice OSCE stations for medical finals. We also provide free sample OSCE stations for all of the station types.

How do I prepare for my OSCEs?

The key to OSCE preparation is practice and our OSCE stations make that easy by providing everything you need including student, patient and examiner instructions.

Student instructions

The student instructions provide an outline of what skill the person playing the student role will be expected to demonstrate in the station (e.g. “A 41-year-old man has presented for assessment. His presenting complaint is severe back pain. Please take a history, suggest appropriate systems to examine and further investigations to perform.”).

Patient instructions/script

The patient instructions provide a detailed script, allowing the person playing the patient to convey a realistic clinical presentation, including example phrases and advice on what information they should hold back unless directly asked.

Examiner instructions

The examiner’s instructions provide the person playing the role of the assessor with an adjustable timer and a detailed checklist of the key points that are expected to be covered in the OSCE station. In addition, the checklist contains a list of further questions the examiner can ask the student at the end of the station.

OSCE performance analysis

The Geeky Medics platform also allows you to gain key insights into your strengths and weaknesses and track your performance over time including:

  • Overall score
  • Detailed data on key points you missed
  • Duration of each station attempt

This is one of the key advantages our OSCE stations have over OSCE station PDFs.
