Mock exam vs doing roleplay with your partner – not the same thing.
Role-plays with a partner are strongly encouraged.
They help with smoothness, flow, language, and confidence.
They make your history taking and explanations sound natural, not robotic.
But partner role-play is still a learning environment.
When you practise with a partner, you both know it is practice. You already expect the case, you help each other unconsciously, and there is no real pressure. That’s why many candidates feel confident in practice but freeze in the real exam.
In our mock exams, we set traps on purpose.
We standardise every case.
We design different levels of difficulty. And patient responses are controlled.
They come from 8 years of our teaching experience, seeing where candidates commonly miss marks, get confused, or break under pressure.
This is not just about our mocks.
Any well-designed mock exam is very different from casual partner roleplay.
Roleplay with a partner helps you learn structure.
Mocks test whether you can survive the exam.
Use partner roleplay to practise.
Use mock exams – any good one (not just ours)– to prepare your mind for exam day.
