    About this ebook

    When preparing for clinical exams, almost all trainees focus exclusively on the content of the examination. This would be the right approach for almost any other type of examination. But knowing your content is not necessarily enough to pass a clinical examination - you also need to communicate clearly and present well under pressure.

    This book will take you through the ‘Fail-safe Method’ for approaching any clinical exam - whether you are a training in medicine, surgery, nursing, dentistry, physiotherapy...or any other health profession! Using the Fail-safe approach to clinical examinations will make sure that you are able to communicate and deliver the content you know with confidence. And you will be prepared to do it regardless of the circumstances.

    Developed by an Australian physician, the Fail-safe method will take you through the 3 clear steps, including covering topics such as:
    - dealing with the 'grumpy examiner', the 'brain freeze' & other exam-day 'curve balls'
    - how to ensure you perform at a high level (even under pressure)
    - avoiding common mistakes the day before your exam

    So, let’s begin!

      Introduction

      Fail-safe: incorporating some feature for automatically counteracting the effect of an anticipated possible source of failure

      Congratulations on purchasing this resource! You have taken a crucial step to ensure you pass your clinical examination.

      When preparing for clinical exams, I’ve noticed almost all trainees focus exclusively on the content of the examination. This would be the right approach for almost any other type of examination.

      But knowing your content is not necessarily enough to pass a clinical examination. I’ve seen plenty of fantastic, very clever candidates fail their clinical exams. They didn’t fail because they were incompetent - they just didn’t know how to play the game well. Failing a clinical exam is often followed by disbelief, frustration, feelings of depression or anxiety, and then
