Online 25 - Written Exam Prep Course 2025
This is our online written exam preparation course. It is designed as preparation for the February 2026 exam or October 2025 exam. It can be undertaken over any two-week period during the main course dates of 1st September - 5th December, 2025. Undertaking this course during two weeks of study leave would be the most optimal, but you can also undertake the course at other times/in parts, if you wish. It provides a great deal of flexibility as to how you use the course. It has been specifically designed for the online environment, based on 5 years of online experience and feedback.
The course contains the following features:
Video lectures – Comprehensive lectures by experienced speakers covering important topics with a focus on evidence-based medicine, current hot topics, and revision of generally poorly understood areas. These are revised each year and pre-recorded shortly before this course starts. They allow you to scroll forward or pause the lecture. These are the same lectures that will be given at our in-person course (24th November - 5th December, 2025). They will remain available for you to view after the main course period ends on 5th Dec, until the February exam.
Comprehensive Course notes – Available as downloadable secure PDFs for each lecture.
Trial Exam - You will be able to participate in an online trial exam from 9:00am on 1st October until 11:59pm on 9th December. As soon as possible after the exam period closes, we will provide an exam analysis showing the spread of all scores and the pass mark. The exam questions with answers and explanations will be made available for download on the course portal, after the exam analysis has been emailed to you.
Practise MCQs – Online Practice MCQs for each sub-specialty, to enhance learning at the course. Answers will be made available for download on 5th December.
Additional Learning - Video lectures on other topics that you may find useful, in addition to the main course content. These will remain available for you to view until the February exam.
Q&A Facility – Questions may be submitted to speakers at any time whilst undertaking the course. Answers will be provided and made available on the course portal once they have been received from the speakers, each month. All people attending the course will be able to see all questions asked and their answers. The Q&A Facility will close on 5th December.
