6/ In the end, crash courses don’t make undeserving doctors pass—they help deserving doctors show what they already know.

5/Being “prepared” for an exam is not the opposite of being a good clinician. If anything, well-prepared candidates are more confident, articulate, and better able to defend their clinical decisions.

4/ A focused course can help overcome that mental block. This is no different from doing mock OSCEs, trial vivas, or taking board review classes—practices that are accepted worldwide. The culture needs to shift frm shamng exam prep to recognizin it as part of professional growth.

Exams are as much about clarity of expression, structured thinking, and confidence as they are about raw clinical exposure. Many bright and hardworking SRs suffer not from lack of knowledge, but from fear, disorganization, or inability to present their thoughts under stress.

2/ and reduce the paralyzing anxiety that exams bring. Most residents have already put in years of clinical work and learning; attending a preparatory program doesn’t erase that. It only helps them translate their knowledge into the structured, time-pressured environment of exam.

1/ I understand the concern, but I think we need to separate exam preparation from clinical competence. Crash courses are not a substitute for bedside training or years of case exposure—they are simply tools to consolidate knowledge, refine answering strategies,.

Crash courses don’t make undeserving doctors pass—they help exam anxious SRs organise knowledge, refine answers & gain confidence under exam stress. Clinical skill comes from years of training; prep just helps you show it better. Let’s end the stigma around exam prep.
