Designed for Doctors Preparing for the SCA

Our SCA resource is for GP trainees preparing for the MRCGP Simulated Consultation Assessment (SCA), including ST3 registrars approaching final assessments. It also supports International Medical Graduates adapting to UK GP consultations, where SCA-style consulting is not yet familiar.

  • Ideal for those unfamiliar with SCA-style consulting
  • Best suited for learners who are in, or nearing completion of, GP specialty training
  • Assumes familiarity with UK primary care consultations
  • No prior SCA attempt is required
  • Helpful for International Medical Graduates adapting to UK GP consultations
What You Get with the SCA Course
  • Written consultation scripts organised by SCA topic, covering openings, agenda-setting, focused data gathering, explanation, shared decision-making, management, safety-netting and closing.
  • An adaptable consultation skeleton that can be applied across multiple clinical areas, with topic-specific phrasing for mental health, safeguarding, chronic disease and more.
  • Explicit coverage of all three SCA marking domains, showing how consultation structure, clinical reasoning and interpersonal skills are assessed and rewarded in each case.

Scripts are designed to help you internalise consultation structure and language, rather than memorise single cases.

How the SCA Course Helps Prepare?
  • ​Bridges the gap from knowledge to consulting. Moves you from “I know the guideline” to “I know how to say this safely and clearly in 12 minutes” across the SCA domains.
  • Improves fluency and phrasing under pressure. Topic-wide scripts model exam-appropriate language for agenda-setting, signposting, explaining risk and safety-netting.
  • Builds a repeatable consultation framework. A consistent structure helps you show data gathering, clinical management and relating to others in each case, even when the scenario changes.

This resource is particularly valuable for candidates who freeze, lose structure or struggle to demonstrate all domains consistently across the 12 SCA consultations.
