Course Overview:

This 1-day intensive programme is delivered by an Ex-ORE Examiner with over 14 years of assessing experience, offering realistic exam practice rather than purely generic theory or practice.

The day begins with an exclusive examiner-led lecture covering a complete overview of ORE Part 2, what examiners look for, common mistakes and pitfalls, exam strategies and time management, and interactive preparation guidance.

Morning – Dental Manikin Mock Exam: a timed, uninterrupted simulation of the real exam, with the examiner observing and preparing personalised feedback on operative procedures, accuracy, efficiency and exam-style time management.

Feedback Session: examiner highlights strengths and areas to improve, with practical tips and corrections.

Afternoon – OSCE + DTP + Medical Emergency Simulation: OSCE stations covering communication, consent, diagnosis, anxiety management and radiograph interpretation; DTP structured case assessment and treatment planning with feedback; medical emergency scenarios (CPR, anaphylaxis, syncope) with real-time guidance.
