The Membership Examination Excellence Training (MEET) course is aimed at all those preparing for the MRCPCH clinical exam. The course will be divided into 3 sessions across two days.  

Day one - Saturday 9 May 2026 (Weston House, RLHIM)

Session One (8.45am to 12pm)

Will cover the exam format, content and approach for the communication, history, video and development station. The session is interactive with opportunity for candidates to participate and hone their skills in a supportive environment.

Session Two (1pm to 3.45pm) 

Will focus on the clinical station. Candidates will have the opportunity to practice examining patients in groups of three and four and receive feedback from tutors on the following five clinical stations: abdominal, respiratory, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal and neurology.

Day two - Saturday 16 May 2026 (RLHIM)

Based on the MRCPCH clinical examination - experience mock exam conditions and gain valuable feedback on the following:

  • Communication skills
  • History taking
  • Clinical examination
  • Child developmental assessment
  • Time management

We also offer a one to one feedback session after the mock exam with our lead examiner. 

Please note that as our patient volunteers have complex medical needs, it is possible that there may be last minute cancellations on the day due to sickness, but we will endeavour to cover all five clinical stations.

Should there be no places available, please feel free to email us to join the waiting list.
