My Golden Rules
1. Find out about the exam: past stations, FY1s experience, useful books 2. Get all your resources together early: order books, print out curriculum, pens, post-its etc 3. Structure your revision: how you like to do it 4. Start early! 5. Review the syllabus again are you revising the correct things? 6. Practise MCQs 7. Alternate between theory/OSCEs/MCQs 8. Sleep & eat well 9. Keep up with Uni work 10. Relax the night before, organise yourself (pens, student card) and sleep well.
