OSCE
Read full descriptionHide full description
OSCE-Track is the mobile companion app to monitor practical medical examinations (especially OSCEs) where the students' performance is being registered using the iPad app OSCE-Eval. With OSCE-Track the exam administrators and other personal are able to keep track of the progress the examiners are making assessing their students. OSCE-Track also alerts administrators and exam personnel in cases where an examiner may be in need of help. OSCE-Track periodically checks the exam server for new backups made by the examiners using the OSCE-Eval iPad client. This means that to successfully monitor an exam, both OSCE-Track and OSCE-Eval must be configured to use the same storage credentials. Additionally, the examination must be run in a setting that provides a working Wi-Fi Internet connection. See our support page for detailed instructions on how to set up both OSCE-Track and OSCE-Eval to monitor your first medical examination. # OSCE-Track offers the following features: - Monitor the progress of an OSCE examination. - Receive alerts when examiners haven't been updating their exam files regularly (e.g. within 5 minutes, within 10 minutes). - Backup the entire examination data using only your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. - Sync with iTunes to transfer backups from your mobile device to your desktop or laptop. - Generate and view spreadsheet reports of the examination files. - Supports on-device decryption of the examination results. - Supports multiple languages (English, French, German).

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. WHAT'S INSIDE • 301 cases across 17 specialties, from Thunderclap Headache and Pediatric Fever to Obesity Counseling and Fever in Returning Traveler • History taking, counseling, acute diagnosis and psychiatric assessment stations • Voice patients who answer what you actually ask • Examiner-style scoring on a structured OSCE rubric, with strengths, misses and next steps • A full transcript of every encounter • Progress by domain and specialty, score trends and daily streaks EXAM TRACKS Full circuits modeled on the real licensing exams, station by station, with reading time and timers: • PLAB 2 / UKMLA CPSA (UK): 16 stations • NAC OSCE (Canada): 12 stations • AMC Clinical (Australia) Tracks come with examiner voice feedback after every encounter and full mock exam circuits.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OSCE at none against RehearseMD's 4. OSCE also leads on iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.2). RehearseMD's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
