RCVS Exam Preparation Essential
For many of us, working in the UK means you need to sit and pass the RCVS Examination.
This free Essential course exists to help you achieve that goal.
The challenges of the RCVS Examination
The RCVS Examination is known to be one of the most challenging ones, alongside the NAVLE, due to the high level of language, knowledge and pratical skills that it requires.
As if you were a UK vet student
The RCVS Exam is based on the examination system that UK vet students go through in order to complete their studies and become eligible to work. This is one of the first barriers, as you are unlikely to have been exposed to the British education system.
-
There is no study plan
The exam covers ALL areas of veterinary medicine, including non-clinical areas. It's basically and exam about your entire veterinary degree.
-
There aren't many affordable study resources
There aren't many resources available to study for the RCVS Exam, and those that exist, such as Vetlexicon, can become very expensive for you to join, even though they are of very good quality.
-
Study resources are of poor quality or not tailored to UK practice
Much of the study material, such as VetPrep, is used to study for the NAVLE, so the knowledge will be adapted to the USA and diseases they see there. The good quality resources are expensive, the others are not necessarily adapted to UK practice.
