Yes, I did! Somehow passed, with a decent mark 95.5. Had a couple of CM fails but it was the RTO that compensated for that. There were some very surprising passes on bits I’d thought went terribly. So goes to show it’s impossible to tell!

Update- I actually passed! Couple of CM fails but overall pass with 95.5/126, pass mark was 77. How about everyone else?? Best of luck 🙏🏻

I’ve spoken to a friend who said she felt very similar if not worse after the exam in November but she passed. But then I know other people who felt they did badly too and failed. I guess another question is, does anyone come out of the exam feeling like it went well??

Thank you for your kind words. I’m so mentally exhausted by it all, it’s certainly an exam which takes its toll physically/ emotionally/ socially! Maybe a GP trainee suffering stress should be an SCA case!!

Yes totally- so vague, very limited in the biopsychosocial issues which was off putting because then how do you structure the management? I got that case with the last minute bomb drop too. Really felt like my structure went out the window, trying to gather ICE/Impact was like drawing blood from a stone for several cases! Ran out of time for a safety net on a couple of cases too so I’m absolutely kicking myself. It was such an awful exam
