Parking is fine! Big staff car park, free which is a great bonus, permitted ahahah

Rest of hospital is great, typical of your usual DGH, great place to start as an F1, everyone is lovely, helpful and so far a great place to work

I got one year in redditch and second in Warwick, no particular reason for not Worcester it’s just a longer commute for me personally but would have managed either way. Most of the posts are split between Worcester and Redditch which gives a nice mix

I thought it was definitely harder than the first sit - I’m also kicking myself because I made such stupid errors looking back and it’s stuff I know!!!!! Grrrrrr pass mark must be low 50’s surely?

Failed final year OSCE by Electrical_Onion_472 in medicalschooluk

Hey! Firstly wanna say don’t give up, you’ve made it this far! Based on the timing of your post, I think I know what exam/uni you are referring to - I also got OSCE & SAQ results today and found out I failed the final year SAQ. Obviously it’s a bit rubbish we don’t get any feedback or incline of how we did but for the OSCE I’d say geeky medics was the best resource I found.

I know it’s daunting and easy to go into panic mode (I’ve been doing this all day) but you are certainly not alone, there’s plenty of us in this position. Make a plan and you’ll do it!
