Applying to ST3 is always stressful especially with growing competition and fewer training spaces

 

Don't worry, Excel Medical has had great success with paediatric candidates across all levels from ST1 to consultancy. We understand the process. We won't teach you a script so you sound generic. Instead, we teach you how to highlight yourself, answer the question they are asking and importantly stand out. 

 

This one day course will cover ALL FOUR stations of the interview: 

​​

- Communication 

- Governance and Leadership

- Clinical Thinking 

- Reflective Practice 

 

Group sizes are kept small to ensure that we focus on YOU throughout the day. 

 

The course is led by Dr Umar Mahmood (Paediatric Cardiology Consultant) and also facilitated by consultants and senior registrar's

Feedback 

​

A big thanks to Dr Umar in helping me to prepare for my ST3 Training interview.

Got Rank 8 and first deanery of choice. I attended the course in feb and had a few one to one sessions as well. It gave me vast knowledge regarding the structure of interview, what to expect and how to formulate the answers. He gives one to one feedback and practice sessions for everyone who attend and thereby gives an idea where we need to work more. I would definitely recommend his course for future S13 applicants.

Thank you Dr Umar, the course was really useful and the approach to each station was clear and informative. I felt comfortable doing scenarios and your feedback was constructive and to the point. The feedback was professional and included points for improvement and change.

​

The course was interactive and I liked that we had the chance to practice more than one time which improved my confidence in approaching stations.
