Practice your OSCE out loud. RehearseMD puts a patient in your ear. You take the history, explain, counsel and reason through the case by speaking, the way you will on exam day. When the station ends you get a full transcript and examiner-style scoring in minutes: what you did well, what you missed, and what to try next. WHY OUT LOUD Reading a checklist is not the same as running a station. Talking to a patient under time pressure is the skill the exam tests, and you can only build it by doing it.
