Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Medics Academy at Free against OSCE's $2.99. Medics Academy also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). OSCE's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
