Description

The Pass the PSA course by MedTic Teaching will be led by FY1 doctors who recently sat the exam, with key tips and tricks to help you prepare efficiently. Each session will run from 7pm to 8pm and cover the following:

9th Jan: Prescribing & Drug monitoring - These sections score you the most points so you need to know how to ace these well. We will go over how to use the BNF, inside tips for maximising efficiency, and common questions.
16th Jan: Planning management & Communication information - Learn how to use the BNF to help inform your management plans, the most common answers the PSA is looking for, and what to think about when applying clinical judgement.
23rd Jan: Prescription review & Adverse drug reactions - Being able to quickly identify the most likely offenders in a prescription review takes time and practice. We are here to distill our knowledge and experience into a quick and easy memory guide to help you become a pro at medicines and their ADRs.
25th Jan: Calculation skills & Data interpretation - Tricky for some, but easy once you know. We will go over basic and complex calculations step by step and teach you what medical school doesn't when it comes to interpreting data and adjusting medications.
