Great app, keeps you informed on the go

Limited Questions for FRCS Orth

There are very few questions to begin with available on this app. Once you have gone through them all it also becomes clear that many of them are recycled from other specialties. There seems a disproportionately large number of questions on research methodology and haematology often with no attempt within the theme to make them appear Orthopaedic in nature. The links within the explanations are few and far between and often to not work. When compared to Orthobullets (Majority of which is free) this is a very poor website indeed and not worth the investment. I would strongly advice other FRCS Orth candidates to not bother.

Passed!

Used this app as my primary revision tool for RANZCP MCQ exam. Passed. Excellent and efficient use of limited study time. Thanks team.

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to give feedback, we're thrilled to hear you passed your exam!

Need improvement

Although beneficial but need improvement in some areas. Every time after log in, I’ve to set filters again. Why not I can adjust my filter as default according to my choice. My exam is SBA but every time I’ve to select again. Moreover, in mock test there’s no filter for exam type. Ultimately I’ve to go through to MTF & SBA both.

NMC

Once you answer all the questions you can not go back and review at your leisure.

Outdated references, controversial clinical management protocols

Onexamination have to seriously go through the answers and review the references. Follow the latest evidence based management. Where different opinions and management protocols are available better to follow the RCEM/ NICE guidelines.

Unfortunately being a part of BMJ group very rarely the evidence are been taken rom BMJ journals, BMJ learning or BMJ best practices.

Disappointed this time with BMJ Onexamintion.

App has limited options

App does not have the option to get questions selection from breakdown in “General Endocrinology” as given in the website page when access from desktop.

Can not rotate to landscape mode

I am using Ipad pro 12.9 inches. The app does not rotate to landscape mode which I use as default with the keyboard. Please add this feature at the earliest as I am having exam and would not be able to do the questions otherwise. Looking forward. Thank you.

Device limit

Limits you to one device per account but so hard to change device when you get a new phone

Came recommended by my Doctor

My doctor found out I was also a physician and told me about this app. Thank you Doctor Bradley Freeman.
