MEET - Mock Examinations

At Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH), we run an MRCPCH mock exam twice a year, which is based on the MRCPCH clinical examination format.

You will be able to experience the exam conditions and gain valuable experience on communication skills, history taking, clinical examination, child development assessment and time management.

In preparation for the MRCPCH examinations, we run an internal teaching programme based on the RCPCH curriculum. The teaching involves bedside and small group teaching and runs in the two weeks prior to both the mock and formal RCPCH clinical examinations.

GOSH Current Statistics:

We pride ourselves in being able to assist in the training of our future paediatricians, we accept candidates both internally and worldwide and are proud that over 82% of the doctors who have sat our Mock Exams, go forward to pass the MRCPCH Clinical Examinations.
