SCA Exam
The best platform for RCGP SCA exam revision. After every consultation it maps your performance against the SCA marking criteria — data gathering, clinical management, and interpersonal skills. My SCA preparation went from 58% in a mock to a comfortable pass.

SCA Exam
As an RCGP SCA candidate, the structured SCA prep here is unlike anything else. It analyses every consultation against the actual SCA exam domains and explains every deduction. Nothing else on the market does this for SCA revision.

PLAB 2
I used Simsbuddy alongside a traditional PLAB 2 course and it filled every gap. The PLAB 2 preparation cases and AI patient pushed me to self-correct in real time. The PLAB 2 notes and learning points are spot on — I passed with a strong score.
