ABSTRACT
How to approach this station This type of viva style of assessment, with you being directly ‘interrogated’ by an examiner, can be very stressful. It is important that you are focused and appear calm. Make sure you read the scenario or brief very carefully. This is important because the application of your knowledge to the specific scenario will be assessed. Before blurting out your answers, pause for a moment and think about a logical format for your answer. This is essential because you need to demonstrate to the examiner that you have sound clinical thinking and application of knowledge.
