Medaptly โ€” Pediatric OSCE | Stop Preparing. Start Passing.
Pediatric OSCE Course

Pediatrics Doesn't Forgive
Half-Prepared Candidates.

The weight-based dosing, the non-verbal patient, the panicked parent in the room โ€” pediatric OSCEs test a skill set no textbook can build. You need to practice it, out loud, until it becomes second nature.

288+ interactive stations. Built-in recording. Real-time scoring. The only prep that shows you exactly how you perform.

"In pediatrics, the patient can't tell you what's wrong. The parent is frightened. The clock is running. None of that is practised by reading. It's practised by doing โ€” until it's automatic."

Who This Is For

We Built This Around Your Exact Fear.

Not a generic "peds candidate." You โ€” with your specific deadline, your past, your anxiety about counselling a frightened mother in front of an examiner.

โฑ๏ธ

Your Exam Is in Under 3 Months

The clock is already running

You still haven't practiced counselling a parent about a febrile seizure out loud. You haven't timed yourself through a bronchiolitis station. You know the content โ€” but knowing and performing are two completely different things, and time is running out.

"The first time I heard myself counsel a parent about failure to thrive on playback, I realised how unprepared I actually was. I had 6 weeks left and it changed everything."
Most Popular
๐Ÿ”

You've Already Failed Once

You can't afford to go through that again

You revised. You read all the guidelines. And still, something broke down under the pressure of being watched. Maybe you blanked on the Kawasaki criteria. Maybe the parent education station ran away from you. Reading more notes won't fix a performance problem.

"I failed because I couldn't manage the parent interaction under pressure. Recording myself doing it every day for 8 weeks fixed that completely."
Rebuild Confidence
๐ŸŒ

English Is Your Second Language

The parent counselling stations expose you

You know the clinical content. But explaining a new diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes to a terrified parent, in empathetic English, under an examiner's gaze โ€” that's a specific skill that only gets built through practice. Fluency under pressure doesn't come from study. It comes from repetition.

"I recorded my parent education stations every day for 5 weeks. By exam day I sounded natural, calm, and confident โ€” even in English."
Communication Focus

This is NOT for you ifโ€ฆ

You want to passively watch videos and feel productive. You haven't started your core pediatrics content yet. Or you're looking for someone else to grade your performance for you. Medaptly is for candidates who are willing to hear themselves on playback and do the reps โ€” because that's the only thing that actually works.

The Moment Everything Changes

From "I Know This" to
"I Can Prove It."

These are the exact clinical moments where peds candidates drop marks. Tap each one and see what changes.

You fumble the bronchiolitis station โ€” missing hydration assessment and admissions criteria, watching marks disappear
SpO2, feeding status, recession signs, nasal suctioning criteria โ€” your assessment is systematic, complete, and automatic
You blank on the Kawasaki criteria mid-station โ€” the one condition every peds examiner loves to test
Fever โ‰ฅ5 days plus 4 of 5 features โ€” rash, conjunctivitis, lip changes, lymphadenopathy, hand/foot changes โ€” recalled instantly, in order
You counsel a parent about a newly diagnosed Type 1 diabetic child and the conversation falls apart under pressure
You deliver a structured, empathetic parent education session โ€” diagnosis, insulin, monitoring, hypoglycaemia management, school โ€” calmly and on time
Your status epilepticus station derails โ€” you give the right drugs in the wrong order and forget to call for senior help
ABC, IV access, benzodiazepine timing, phenytoin second-line, airway support โ€” you run the protocol without hesitation
You have no study partner and have never once practiced explaining Gillick competence or a child protection concern out loud
You've recorded 8 ethics stations, watched yourself back, and refined your approach until it's professional, clear, and confident
You walk into exam day hoping you're ready โ€” because you have genuinely no way of knowing
You walk in knowing your exact score across 288+ stations โ€” and you've been above 85% for three weeks straight
0/6 transformed
Tap each row to transform it

The gap between where you are now and where you need to be isn't a knowledge gap.
It's a performance gap โ€” and the only thing that closes it is deliberate, structured practice.

Close the Gap โ€” Start Today

Inside Every Station

This Is What
Exam Readiness Feels Like.

Not reading about a case. Not watching someone else do it. You, doing it, scoring it, fixing it โ€” until the parent education, the emergency protocol, and the ethics discussion all become automatic.

  • Built-in Recording โ€” The Game Changer

    Hearing yourself counsel a parent for the first time is always a shock. The stumbles, the missed empathy cues, the rushed explanations โ€” invisible until you watch them back.

  • Examiner-Identical Scoring Checklists

    The same items, in the same format, at the same mark weighting. No guessing whether you're being fair to yourself.

  • Real-Time Performance Score

    Watch your percentage update as you tick. Know immediately whether you're Outstanding, Excellent, Good โ€” or whether that station needs another run.

  • Knowledge Q&A That Builds Depth

    The gaps you didn't know you had. Accordion-style questions with expert model answers that stick because you discovered the gap yourself.

  • One-Page Rapid-Review Guide

    The whole case distilled onto one page โ€” history, exam, differentials, management. Read it the night before. Read it the morning of. Walk in already knowing it.

What Separates Passers From Failers

The Difference Isn't How Much
You Studied. It's How You Studied.

Candidates who fail have usually studied just as hard. They just studied the wrong way โ€” passively, without feedback, without ever performing under the eyes of a parent and an examiner.

What actually determines your result Textbooks & Videos Medaptly

Before You Decide

The Cost of Not Practising
Is Already Adding Up.

Every week you spend reading instead of practising is a week of marks you could have locked in. And if you fail โ€” the price is far beyond the exam fee.

6+ Months of Career Delay

Waiting for the next cycle. Watching colleagues progress. Explaining to family why you're retaking.

$8,000+

Retake Fees & Lost Earnings

Registration fees, study materials, time off work โ€” compounding on top of what you've already spent.

$3,000+

The Mental Cost

The self-doubt. The sleepless nights. The identity of being the one who didn't pass. That's not measurable.

Priceless
Conservative estimate of failing once: a 6-month delay, retake fees, and lost income โ€” before you even count the emotional toll. For most candidates, that number lands well above $20,000. Medaptly costs less than a single day of that delay.

Every Question You Have,
Answered Honestly.

Medaptly is built around the core pediatric OSCE competency frameworks assessed in all major international examinations: MCCQE Part 2 (Canada), PLAB 2 (UK), MRCPCH Clinical (UK), Saudi Board Peds OSCE, FRACP Paediatrics Clinical (Australia/NZ), USMLE Step 2 CS (USA), MRCPI Paeds (Ireland), FCPaed(SA) (South Africa), MMED(Paeds) (Singapore), and DCH/MD Paeds (India). The 9-task station structure mirrors every globally assessed OSCE format. If your exam isn't listed, contact us. We'll confirm compatibility before you spend a cent.
Yes โ€” and often more than anything you've done so far. The knowledge is usually there. What's missing is performance under pressure. Even 4โ€“6 weeks of structured recording and checklist practice โ€” especially for parent education and emergency stations โ€” creates a measurable shift. Starting now is better than not starting.
Every single candidate feels this way at first. That discomfort is exactly the point โ€” it mirrors the anxiety that costs marks when a parent is sitting in front of you. All recordings are stored locally on your device only. Nothing is ever uploaded to our servers. The embarrassment fades after the first few sessions. What replaces it is confidence.
Yes. Medaptly is fully responsive across desktop, tablet, and mobile. The recording feature works on all modern browsers. No app download needed. Practice during a break between ward rounds, or at home after a long shift โ€” wherever you have 15 minutes.
Free resources give you information. Medaptly gives you performance. Watching a video about how to manage bronchiolitis is not the same as managing it yourself, on the clock, hearing it back, and marking yourself against the same checklist an examiner uses. In pediatrics especially โ€” where parent communication and clinical judgment happen simultaneously โ€” passive learning simply isn't enough.
90 days or 180 days, depending on your plan. The 90-day plan covers a focused exam-prep sprint. The 180-day plan is for candidates who want to build deeper competence over time โ€” especially those starting early or retaking after a fail.

The Version of You
That Passes Already Exists.

They practice the parent counselling out loud. They record the emergency station until the protocol is automatic. They fix the gaps before exam day โ€” not after.

You can keep reading. Or you can start performing. Only one of those choices changes what happens in that room.
