Recommended Preparation Cadence

A practical structure most candidates use — adjust to your timeline.

1

First half: build reasoning depth

Work through short cases in deliberate practice mode. Study the 9-domain feedback after each one. Target your weakest clinical area first. Use Domain Practice mode to drill specific weak domains rather than always running full cases.

2

Middle stretch: timing pressure + long cases

Switch to realtime mode to build time-pressure habits. Add long cases including the 10-minute reading phase. Pair with hands-on practice if you have a Clinical Workshop ahead.

3

Final stretch: full exam simulations

Run the full exam simulator (3 short + 1 long, ~60 active min) twice a week. Focus on polish: cultural safety question, professional communication, calm pacing.
