课程简介
PLAB 1 exam
It is a conceptual exam where a candidate must apply medical knowledge (both basic science and core clinical) to common cases encountered by junior doctors in NHS hospitals. It does not simply require candidates to recite and regurgitate facts (an approach taken by far too many). All answers are based on current best practices and published evidence. All current medications used in the UK will be found in the latest edition of the British National Formulary (BNF).
The exam is in the format of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and more specifically they will be Single Best Answer questions (SBAs) – EMQs are no longer used). This means that more than one answer can be correct – you must choose the MOST correct answer. There will be 200 SBAs over a 3-hour time period (less than a minute per question so time management and practice are key!)
CBMDA has formulated over 2000 SBA questions of the highest quality, which will give candidates an excellent platform on which to practice.
PLAB 2 exam
“The PLAB test is becoming more rigorous and more reflective of real-life practice.” General Medical Council (GMC, UK)
1) Assess candidates’ professionalism and understanding of ethics as well as their clinical knowledge and skills. For example, testing doctors’ understanding about a patient’s right to make a choice
about their care.
2) 18 stations – 2 minutes to read the task and 8 minutes to perform the task. Minimum of 2 rest stations
3) Candidates will be tested on three domains: Data-gathering, technical and assessment skills, Clinical management skills and Interpersonal
skills.
4) For the Part 2 exam, we are changing the way we set the pass mark to use an internationally recognised method known as borderline regression. On the day, we will use the results from all the candidates to set the pass mark for each scenario. It’s more accurate than our current method which only uses the results of those candidates judged to be borderline.
-
Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) format – tests clinical competence – ‘the habitual and judicious use of communication, knowledge, technical skills, clinical reasoning, emotions, values, and reflection in daily practice for the benefits of the individual and the community being served.’
-
PLAB 2 assesses your aptitude to behave as a doctor, your communication and clinical skills and your level of spoken English.
-
The examination is held only in Manchester.
-
Key competencies that are tested:
-
Clinical skills
-
Examination techniques
-
History taking
-
Communication skills
-
emergencies and resuscitation
-
In stations that require you to take a history or talk to a patient, and in some stations requiring you to perform an examination, an actor (simulated patient), who has been provided with a detailed script beforehand, plays the patient. You should treat the simulated patient as you would a real patient in the real world.
You may be asked to examine a patient, take a history and give a diagnosis, or to carry out a practical procedure. The instructions also give basic information about the patient, such as name, age and major symptoms.
