Try not to panic, if you ever need any help you can PM me! I had loads of ways to get through my practical exams. Sometimes you think you've failed when you haven't! I was sure I failed but had passed first time!

[quote user="Mark Hedberg"]Why not JaneRVN? She writes blogs for vetsonline, and knows the OSCEs like the back of her hand. She's based at CAW Potters Bar so travel might be simpler for you.[/quote]

Well, I'll need more than one person for these. JaneRVN, would you be be interested?

My plan is to record these and upload them to youtube and embed on vetnurse.co.uk as a free resource for the profession.

[quote user="Teri-Ann Baldwin"]Ooh ooh Arlo pick me![/quote]

You're picked!

(I say that ... looking at your profile it says South Wales, which isn't so far from me, but not clear whether that it just your hometown, or where you are now). Could you PM me and let me know where your practice is?

Need to think about which one to film first, from this list: http://awardingbody.rcvs.org.uk/examinations/practical-examinations/osce-stations/

Any other film stars out there? (we'll need more than one!)

[quote user="Lisa Counsell"]hey I had my OSCEs yesterday I did them with central qualifications so they dont have the dark areas, I had the set up for blood sample task and did everything correct the examiner prompted me twice after I had flled the tray with edta tube, clippers, needle and syringe, wet and dry swab!! I said I was happy as I felt everything was fien as soon as I left the room I realised I had forgotten to put gloves in there!!!!!!!! so annoyed I must of had a total blank!!!!!! does anyone know if this is a fail?! any personal experience thankyou :(:([/quote]

Hi! Though I can't remember 100% I think it MIGHT be a fail, but don't quote me it's been 2 years since I looked at those dreaded exams!! Either way, do not panic. When my friend did hers she accidentally threw a swab at the examiner and still passed! Don't panic, you have plenty of stations to pass on.

Good Luck!!

Ooh ooh Arlo pick me! I will put my best face on so I don't scare anyone I promise

that would be a brilliant idea, I have actually searched for something similar but only find human doctor osce stuff. I'm sure to sit my exam in February but think that being able to watch osce being done would be a valuable revision aid.

[quote user="Gemma Parkinson"]That sounds like a great idea!!![/quote] Great :)

(Though not one I can take the credit for - it was Rob Watkins at Invicta Animal Health who suggested it to me).

So who'll offer to play the lead role?

Wondering whether anyone thinks it would be a good idea if I went out and filmed demonstrations of various OSCE tasks in practice to add to a new gallery on this site.

And if so, would anyone like to stick their hand up and offer to be filmed doing a demo? I can't promise it'll lead to a career in Hollywood
