Learn moreWhy students fail the UKMLA CPSA
These are the habits that cost marks in finals OSCEs — and what we train out
Poor communication
Not using ICE, failing to build rapport, missing patient cues
Unstructured consultations
Jumping between topics, missing systematic approach
Weak time management
Running out of time before reaching management plan
Inadequate safety netting
Not telling patients when to come back or red flags
Missing data gathering
Not asking key questions, incomplete history
OSCE Revisions trains you to avoid every one of these mistakes
One guided loop, from lost to exam-ready
We don’t just hand you scenarios and wish you luck. We take you through the whole cycle — learn the framework, rehearse it out loud, see exactly what to fix, and ask our AI Professor anything. Then go again.
Start with the framework
We hand you the exact structure for every station type — ICE, SOCRATES, Calgary–Cambridge, SBAR and the 8-minute playbook — so you never have to improvise structure again.
Learn it in the full guide
Video walkthroughs, model practice scripts, examiner checklists and exam tips for each station — written by NHS doctors who've sat the exam.
Rehearse out loud — or in text
Practise the station with a real-time AI voice patient (or in text when you can't speak), under the exam clock. This is the rehearsal step every other resource skips.
See exactly what to fix
Instant examiner-style feedback across the 3 domains and 10 competencies: what went wrong, why it cost marks, and precisely how to improve it.
Ask the AI Professor anything
Not sure how to break bad news or phrase a differential? Ask your on-demand OSCE expert, get a model answer, then loop back and nail the station.

12 × 10-minute stations, examiner viva, full library + Core (~665), and a readiness checklist — calibrated to finals-style UKMLA CPSA, not PLAB 2.
Watch the platform tour
A quick look at AI voice stations, timed mocks, examiner-style grading, and the study library — then a sample exchange below.
A real AI patient exchange
This is how a station actually feels — the patient responds naturally, and every word you say is scored.
AI patient
“It came on about an hour ago while I was climbing the stairs… it’s a heavy pressure right in the centre. I’m a bit frightened, doctor.”
You
“That sounds really worrying and I’m going to look after you. Does the pain spread anywhere, and are you feeling short of breath or sweaty?”
Strong empathy and safety-netting. Next: screen the cardiac risk factors and offer analgesia early to score the management domain.

Why students choose OSCE Revisions
Built by NHS doctors who've been through the exam. Designed around how students actually prepare.
Practise speaking, not just reading
Most resources give you text. We give you a real voice conversation with an AI patient who listens, responds, and reacts — just like exam day. You build the muscle memory of actually talking through a consultation.
The only platform with real-time voice AI patientsKnow exactly where you're losing marks
After every station you get a detailed breakdown across the 3 marking domains and all 10 competencies examiners score — no vague feedback, just specific behaviours to fix before your next attempt.
3-domain, 10-competency grading on every sessionNever wonder what to study next
The Start Here roadmap sequences every must-know station into weekly steps — read the anchor, practise it out loud, then move on. It's the antidote to a scary, unstructured pile of topics.
Guided week-by-week Start Here roadmapFocus your practice on current high-yield themes
A Recent Themes rail surfaces curated high-yield stations based on recent exam themes — focused practice sets you can drill when you want to prioritise what matters most.
Recent exam themes, kept currentNotes written for the OSCE, not the textbook
Each station has a dedicated revision note with the exact consultation structure, key questions, differentials, and safety-netting phrases — plus an examiner checklist and a model script. Written by NHS doctors who've sat the exam.
Station-specific revision guidesFull mock exams with real timing pressure
Simulate the complete exam circuit with timed stations, rest periods, and a pass/fail determination at the end. Stamina is a skill — this is how you build it before exam day.
Complete timed exam simulationsMake revision actually stick
Rate each note for spaced repetition and it resurfaces at the right time, and the AI Professor tutor is one tap away to turn any feedback into a concrete fix. Learn it once, keep it for exam day.
Spaced repetition + AI Professor tutorTrack your progress and focus your weak areas
Your dashboard shows score trends, a specialty radar chart, and automatic weak-area detection with recommendations for what to practise next. Stop guessing where you stand — see the data.

Practise CPSA stations out loud
Reading a station guide and performing a station are different skills. On OSCE Revisions you practise UKMLA CPSA stations the way you will sit them: speaking to an AI patient that responds naturally, working within station timing, and getting scored feedback at the end. With 1,800+ stations mapped to the GMC MLA Content Map 2026, you can rehearse history taking, examination findings, communication and management for every clinical area your CPSA can draw from.
CPSA mock exams in your school's format
Every medical school delivers the CPSA differently — typically 8–12 stations of 10–12 minutes. Our timed mock exams run a full 12-station circuit with reading time and rest stations by default, and you can customise station count and timing to match your school's format. A full circuit needs a UKMLA plan, and each AI station uses one AI Attempt, so you can also run shorter circuits while you are on the free grant. You get an overall verdict plus a station-by-station breakdown of where marks were won and lost. See mock exams and CPSA station types.
UKMLA CPSA revision that isn't just reading
Most finals revision tools stop at knowledge — question banks and notes. The CPSA marks how you perform: whether you structure the consultation, respond to the patient, and manage safely under time. That is trainable, but only by doing. Start with the frameworks, rehearse stations out loud, review your domain scores, and drill the station types that cost you marks. If you are planning your split between AKT and CPSA prep, see our guide to AKT vs CPSA.
Built on the MLA Content Map 2026
Every scenario is pre-mapped to the GMC's MLA Content Map 2026 — all 25 areas of clinical practice, 217 presentations and 430 conditions — so your coverage tracker shows which parts of the map you have rehearsed and which are still untouched. From September 2026 the expanded map applies; new material is already sequenced into the Start Here roadmap. Read more on the MLA Content Map and browse full coverage.
Medical school finals OSCE = your school's CPSA
If your university calls it finals OSCE, MLA OSCE, or CPSA, it is the same practical half of the UKMLA: a circuit of timed stations with a simulated patient, marked on clinical and professional skills. Formats vary by school; the underlying GMC standard does not. This hub is for UK medical students preparing for that assessment — not for the GMC-delivered PLAB 2 route (see UKMLA vs PLAB 2 if you are unsure which applies).
Frequently asked questions
The UKMLA Clinical and Professional Skills Assessment (CPSA) is the OSCE component of the UK Medical Licensing Assessment. For UK medical students, universities administer their own CPSA — typically 8-12 stations, 10-12 minutes each, with 2 minutes reading time. Our MLA OSCE mock uses a 12-station, 10-minute format that aligns with this typical university assessment structure. It's mapped to the GMC MLA Content Map 2026.
The UKMLA CPSA and PLAB 2 both assess against the MLA Content Map, so the clinical content overlaps significantly. For IMGs, the GMC CPSA uses the same format as PLAB 2 (16 stations, 8 min each). Our MLA OSCE mock uses a 12-station, 10-minute format that matches the typical UK medical school finals OSCE — which is the assessment most UK graduates will actually sit. If you're an IMG preparing for the GMC exam, choose the PLAB 2 plan instead.
Very. Our AI patients use real-time voice to respond naturally with emotional cues and clinically accurate histories. They adapt based on what you ask, just like a standardised patient.
Yes. A UKMLA plan unlocks the complete 12-station CPSA-style circuit with 10-minute active stations, 2-minute reading periods, and overall scoring with a pass/fail determination. Each AI station uses one AI Attempt, so on the free 3+3 grant you can rehearse individual stations and shorter circuits before committing.
Absolutely. OSCE Revisions complements your placements by letting you practise scenarios you might not encounter on the ward. You can do a quick 10-minute session between lectures or practise specific specialties before rotations.
Our content covers all 25 areas of clinical practice from the GMC MLA Content Map 2026, including all 217 presentations and 430 conditions. This is the same framework your medical school curriculum is built around.
Yes. From September 2026 the expanded GMC MLA Content Map applies — around 430 conditions with heightened safeguarding expectations. Every scenario in our library is already mapped to it, and the Start Here roadmap sequences the new material so nothing is left to chance.
Absolutely. Many students rehearse a station solo with the AI patient first, then run it again with a study partner using the same revision note and examiner checklist as a mark scheme. The structured feedback gives your group a shared, objective standard instead of guesswork.
After each station, your transcript is graded against an examiner rubric across Data Gathering, Clinical Management, and Interpersonal Skills with per-item feedback.
Yes. The clinical content is broadly applicable to any UK medical OSCE. Many students use it for medical school OSCEs, end-of-year exams, and FY1 preparation alongside UKMLA CPSA.
