Results & Stories from Doctors Who Have Used Fellow Academy Here is what IMGs and GP registrars say about preparing with Fellow Academy. Try Exam‑Standard Questions Free Not affiliated with or endorsed by RACGP, AMC, ACRRM or NZGP. Individual results may vary. Dr. Sarah Kulthum, MBBS, FRACGP RACGP GP Educator, Fellowed GP at Browns Plains Family Practice Fellow Academy Flashcards and Exam Notes gave me the clear structure I really needed for exam preparation. Relying solely on lecture slides was too overwhelming, especially during busy clinic days. With these resources, I could also easily revise on my phone during short breaks, making study more manageable and less stressful. Dr. Geoffrey Neundorf, MD, FRACGP RACGP GP Registrar Senior Supervisor, Fellowed GP As Shaun’s supervisor at Forest Lake General Practice, I saw firsthand how effectively he used his own flashcards and notes. In fact, he frequently shared them during teaching sessions, helping other registrars who struggled to organise their revision, as well as helping me brush up on my own knowledge. These resources would undoubtedly simplify exam preparation for anyone facing the AKT or KFP Dr. Douglas Brown, MD, FRACGP Fellowed GP, Addiction Medicine Advanced Trainee at Caboolture Hospital I felt stressed and unsure about where to focus my study efforts for the KFP exam. These flashcards and exam notes specifically targeted high-yield KFP content, delivering the precise depth I needed without any unnecessary information. They quickly became essential to my preparation and in the last few weeks before the exam was pretty much the only things I used to revise. Dr. Nitin Mukesh, MD, FRACGP Fellowed GP with The Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) I was extremely anxious in the lead up to the KFP exam as I had heard many horror stories. Using these resources was an absolute game changer for my exam preparation. They not only provided key information but also created simplified ways of remembering large chunks of information. Dr. Charles Wang, MD, FRACGP Former PassRaCGP user, now a contributor to the PassRACGP, Fellowed GP at Your Doctors Preparing for these exams was the toughest study challenge I've ever faced. I struggled to manage the overload from multiple fragmented resources, none of which had everything clearly in one place. Fellow Academy streamlined everything, saving me hundreds of hours I previously wasted creating my own notes. The clarity, focus, and structure provided were exactly what I needed.

He holds teaching positions at the University of Queensland and Griffith University, and has spent 5 years supervising and mentoring doctors through the Australian medical system. Dr Shaun and his team created Fellow Academy after seeing the same pattern repeated across hundreds of candidates. Doctors with strong clinical knowledge and dedicated preparation were failing, because their study materials did not match what the exam actually tests. See Dr Shaun explain the approach behind Fellow Academy and what to expect from the platform. Meet the Team Join the Hundreds of Candidates Who Passed With Us Used by 1,200+ doctors across Australia, including Australian GP registrars and IMGs. Dr Rajesh Gemnani, MBBS, MRC|GP IMG GP (FSP), Medical Director GP Registrar, Smart Clinics Cairns "Fellow Academy made AKT and KFP prep so much easier with clear explanations and exam-style cases. The platform is practical, focused, and perfectly aligned with RACGP expectations. Highly recommend to any GP trainee aiming for success!" Dr. Sarah Kulthum, MBBS, FRACGP Fellowed GP at Browns Plains Family Practice "Relying solely on lecture slides was too overwhelming, especially during busy clinic days. With these resources, I could also easily revise on my phone during short breaks, making study more manageable and less stressful." Dr. Douglas Brown, MD, FRACGP Fellowed GP, Addiction Medicine Advanced Trainee at Caboolture Hospital “I felt stressed and unsure about where to focus my study efforts for the KFP exam. These flashcards and exam notes specifically targeted high-yield KFP content, delivering the precise depth I needed without any unnecessary information." Dr Chooi Chean Chong, MD General Practice Registrar, MD, AMC "I did a mock CCE with Shaun and it was so important to my passing the CCE. I liked his CCE course a lot as it is so close to the real exam. My first day of CCE did not go so well but I did great on the second day which I think helped me pass it." Dr. Nitin Mukesh, MD, FRACGP Title After sitting and failing the 2025.2 KFP, I realised the other question banks I'd practiced with were far too easy and they set me up for failure. Fellow Academy's questions are different. They are the closest match to the real exam I've found. The scenarios, the distractors, the complexity and the clinical reasoning required is near identical. It's rare to find a question bank that truly replicates the exam while also teaching you exam technique. I wish I'd found these before my first attempt.

Maybe you have been worrying that your previous medical training will not match Australian standards or wondering if your current preparation is adequate for the rigorous RACGP exams. It is a feeling that can consume your confidence and motivation, especially when so much of your future depends on passing these exams. You are not alone in this uncertainty. As an international medical graduate, you have already invested significant effort, emotion, and sacrifice to reach this stage of your medical career in Australia. The anxiety of wondering whether you are studying the right material or investing in the right resources can sometimes feel heavier than the content itself. This guide provides clarity by showing you precisely what to look for before choosing a GP exam academy for IMGs. You will learn the key factors that genuinely impact your exam success: Australian guideline alignment, efficient revision tools, authentic exam style practice, and methods proven to enhance retention, such as flashcards and active recall techniques. Is the content Australian guideline based? Content must align clearly and explicitly with Australian GP guidelines to help you pass the RACGP exams. The exams specifically assess your ability to provide competent, safe, and effective care according to Australian standards and systems. Many IMGs struggle because their previous medical education was based on international guidelines, which differ from Australian standards. RACGP public exam reporting and guidance emphasise that KFP answers must be framed in the Australian general practice context, using Australian guidelines and systems [1] . You must ensure the resources you choose specifically cover and clearly reference: RACGP Red Book, preventive health guidelines [5] Therapeutic Guidelines, eTG, Australian general practice topics [3] Medicare billing and documentation requirements Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme prescribing criteria [7] Australian Immunisation Handbook recommendations [6] Indigenous and rural healthcare considerations relevant to Australian general practice [4 ] A GP exam academy that meets these criteria usually employs Australian trained GPs or RACGP examiners in content development. This local perspective ensures the scenarios, guidelines, and clinical reasoning reflect exactly what RACGP examiners expect. For more strategies on aligning your study approach with the RACGP exams, see our internal resource on AKT timing and preparation. Can you revise topics without rewatching 3 hours? Effective revision is concise and efficient. You should not need to rewatch long lectures repeatedly just to grasp key concepts. This inefficient approach can quickly exhaust your motivation, limit productive study hours, and harm exam outcomes. The demands placed on IMGs working in busy clinical practices make extended study sessions difficult. Your GP exam academy for IMGs must respect these demands by offering short, targeted, and repeatable revision methods that fit around clinical and family responsibilities. Common real life constraints for IMGs: Long working days in general practice with limited dedicated study time On call rosters that disrupt planned revision sessions Family responsibilities that compete with revision blocks Cognitive fatigue after high volume clinics or complex consultations A well designed revision resource should let you review rapidly, even during brief intervals, using: Concise clinical summaries or single page revision notes Flashcards that cover high yield topics for quick review Quick reference diagnostic and management algorithms Short targeted audio or video refreshers, 10 to 20 minutes Practical checklists for core clinical topics and examination skills These methods turn short breaks during clinic into effective revision. For more practical strategies, explore our internal RACGP flashcard library. Does it include an active recall layer, flashcards or notes? Active recall is a proven way to strengthen long term memory. Rather than passively reviewing, you retrieve knowledge repeatedly until it is reliable under time pressure. This approach supports faster recognition of patterns and safer clinical decision making. Educational guidance from RACGP emphasises structured preparation. Integrating spaced practice and repeat testing is consistent with evidence informed exam readiness strategies in Australian medical assessment contexts [10 , 11 ]. Your chosen GP exam academy for IMGs should include: Topic specific flashcards for AKT, KFP, and common GP presentations Spaced repetition scheduling so difficult items resurface automatically Short self assessment quizzes that reinforce recall Progress dashboards that show mastery by topic High yield summary sheets that pair with flashcards for rapid refresh Used consistently, these tools improve confidence and performance. For more evidence based techniques, review our internal active recall study resources. FAQ: Your most common questions answered 1. What is the best way for an IMG to prepare for RACGP exams Combine active recall, authentic KFP and AKT practice, and resources aligned to Australian guidelines. This structured method improves knowledge retention and confidence for exam day [3 ,4 ,5 ,7 ,8 ]. 2. Why is Australian guideline based content crucial for IMGs RACGP assessments judge your readiness for unsupervised practice in Australia, so answers must reflect Australian systems, standards, and guidelines. RACGP reporting and guidance make clear that KFP responses must be framed in Australian general practice context [1 ,8 ]. 3. How can I quickly identify efficient revision resources Look for concise summaries, high yield flashcards, single page clinical checklists, and short, targeted refreshers that fit into 10 to 20 minute intervals. These formats enable productive study around clinical and family commitments. 4. Why are real exam style KFP questions important Authentic practice builds familiarity with structure and pace, reducing anxiety and improving decision making. The 2025.2 KFP recorded 79.57 percent pass rate with a mean 70.98 percent among 1160 candidates, while the 2024.2 KFP recorded 67.83 percent overall, showing consistent challenge across cycles [8 , 9] . 5. How do flashcards and active recall tools benefit exam preparation Flashcards and spaced repetition strengthen recall, especially under time pressure. Consistent retrieval practice supports safer reasoning and better performance in high stakes exams [10 ,11 ]. Where Fellow Academy fits Fellow Academy brings these elements together for IMGs preparing for RACGP exams. It aligns content to Australian guidelines, provides efficient revision supports, and mirrors exam expectations so your practice feels familiar by the time you sit. Here is how Fellow Academy aligns to your needs: Australian guideline alignment: Content maps to RACGP curriculum units, Therapeutic Guidelines, PBS prescribing, Medicare processes, and prevention frameworks like the Red Book [3 ,4 ,5 ,7] Concise revision tools: Structured summaries, flashcards, and quick reference notes reduce rewatching and allow targeted refreshers Real exam style KFP practice: Question sets are developed to match RACGP complexity and structure, with emphasis on Australian context and typical general practice presentations [8 ] Active recall integration: High yield flashcards, spaced review schedules, and progress checks enhance retention and readiness IMG focused context: Guidance addresses Medicare billing nuances, consultation style expectations in Australian practice, cultural safety, and rural or Indigenous contexts For a clear pathway that links these supports into a stepwise plan, see our internal exam preparation pathways. Are the KFP questions real exam style? Practising with authentic KFP questions is essential if you want to succeed. The KFP exam assesses clinical reasoning, prioritisation, and safe, context specific management in Australian general practice. Recent RACGP public reporting confirms that in the 2025.2 KFP exam cycle, the pass rate was 79.57 percent, with a mean score of 70.98 percent among 1160 candidates [8 ]. Earlier cycle data also shows variability across semesters, for example the 2024.2 KFP recorded an overall 67.83 percent pass rate from 945 candidates [9] . These figures illustrate both the challenge and the importance of realistic practice. To prepare effectively, your GP exam academy for IMGs should provide KFP questions that: Replicate RACGP marking logic and selection formats, aligned to current guidance and reporting [8 ] Present undifferentiated presentations with multi system comorbidities Reflect Australian constraints such as PBS prescribing, ethical issues, rural and Indigenous health contexts Use timed simulations to build pacing and resilience under exam stress Reference the current RACGP curriculum and syllabus so your study maps to blueprint expectations [4 ] Regular practice with authentic scenarios builds reasoning skills and reduces anxiety. For more detail on exam components, see our internal RACGP exam structure guide. If you are feeling overwhelmed by RACGP exam preparation, Fellow Academy offers high quality AKT and KFP questions, concise exam notes, and high yield flashcards designed to help IMGs study efficiently and perform with confidence. You will also find free KFP case packs, webinars, and practical study resources to support you each step of the way.

For more evidence based techniques, review our internal active recall study resources. Tools That Make Active Recall Easy Digital tools simplify the process of integrating active recall and spaced repetition into your RACGP exam preparation. Brainscape: Uses adaptive algorithms to determine when you should review each flashcard based on your confidence level. Anki: Allows custom deck creation for topics like PBS rules or emergency management. Quizlet: Offers collaborative decks for study groups. Using these tools allows you to: Review flashcards during commutes or between patients. Automatically revisit topics you’re struggling with. Track progress and identify weak areas. These platforms bring structure to your study plan, ensuring regular reinforcement and better recall. (For time management strategies, see our AKT Study Planner.) How to Combine These Methods for Peak Performance When you combine active recall with spaced repetition, the results are exponential. This combination, known as “spaced retrieval practice”, creates a continuous cycle of learning, forgetting, and relearning that strengthens memory. Start early (at least 6–12 months before your exam). Create flashcards for each guideline or high-yield topic. Use Brainscape or Anki daily to review material in spaced cycles. Schedule mock exams every 3–4 weeks to test your applied knowledge. Research indicates spaced repetition can significantly increase long-term retention, with spaced learners achieving approximately 58% accuracy compared to 43% among traditional learners (p<0.001) [4]. By six months into this method, most candidates report not only improved recall but also better confidence under pressure. You’re no longer scrambling to remember—you’re retrieving information automatically. FAQ: Your most common questions answered 1. What is the best way for an IMG to prepare for RACGP exams Combine active recall, authentic KFP and AKT practice, and resources aligned to Australian guidelines. This structured method improves knowledge retention and confidence for exam day [3 ,4 ,5 ,7 ,8 ]. 2. Why is Australian guideline based content crucial for IMGs RACGP assessments judge your readiness for unsupervised practice in Australia, so answers must reflect Australian systems, standards, and guidelines. RACGP reporting and guidance make clear that KFP responses must be framed in Australian general practice context [1 ,8 ]. 3. How can I quickly identify efficient revision resources Look for concise summaries, high yield flashcards, single page clinical checklists, and short, targeted refreshers that fit into 10 to 20 minute intervals. These formats enable productive study around clinical and family commitments. 4. Why are real exam style KFP questions important Authentic practice builds familiarity with structure and pace, reducing anxiety and improving decision making. The 2025.2 KFP recorded 79.57 percent pass rate with a mean 70.98 percent among 1160 candidates, while the 2024.2 KFP recorded 67.83 percent overall, showing consistent challenge across cycles [8 , 9] . 5. How do flashcards and active recall tools benefit exam preparation Flashcards and spaced repetition strengthen recall, especially under time pressure. Consistent retrieval practice supports safer reasoning and better performance in high stakes exams [10 ,11 ]. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by RACGP exam preparation, Fellow Academy offers high quality AKT and KFP questions, exam notes in concise and comprehensive format, and high yield, evidence based flashcards designed to help you study smarter and perform with confidence.

Balancing clinical duties, family responsibilities, and the rigorous demands of exam preparation is challenging, but achieving Fellowship is within your grasp. With clarity, practical strategies, and reliable resources, succeeding in the RACGP AKT exam becomes not just possible, but highly achievable. This comprehensive guide explains exactly what the RACGP AKT exam covers, eligibility requirements, exam structure, marking methods, essential tips, common mistakes to avoid, recommended resources, and strategic considerations if you're planning to take both the AKT and KFP together. Let’s dive in step by step, preparing you confidently for exam success. What Is the RACGP AKT Exam? The RACGP AKT exam, known formally as the Applied Knowledge Test, is an essential component of your journey towards RACGP Fellowship . It evaluates your foundational medical knowledge, clinical reasoning skills, and ability to effectively apply evidence based Australian clinical guidelines [1 ,5 ]. When you pass the AKT, it confirms your competence in areas critical for safe, independent GP practice, including: Accurate clinical reasoning in common general practice scenarios. Comprehensive recall and application of core medical knowledge. Effective use of Australian clinical guidelines such as Therapeutic Guidelines, RACGP’s Red Book, and the Australian Immunisation Handbook. Essentially, passing the AKT reassures both you and the RACGP that you're ready to manage real world GP scenarios safely. Who Can Sit the RACGP AKT Exam? Understanding eligibility is your first practical step. To sit the RACGP AKT exam, you must meet conditions outlined by the RACGP and hold appropriate AHPRA registration [5 ]. You’re eligible if you: Are enrolled in recognised GP training programs such as AGPT or RVTS. Are an International Medical Graduate who meets specific RACGP criteria. Have completed hospital based terms and gained supervised GP experience before sitting the exam. Confirming your eligibility well in advance helps streamline your exam preparation and registration processes. What Does the RACGP AKT Exam Test? The RACGP AKT exam focuses on four core areas critical for competent GP practice [1 ,5 ]: Clinical Reasoning: tests your ability to diagnose accurately, manage priorities effectively, and develop safe management plans. Medical Knowledge Recall: covers pharmacology, therapeutics, preventive health strategies, vaccination schedules, and chronic disease guidelines. Evidence Based Guideline Application: emphasises correct application of Australian guidance including Therapeutic Guidelines, RACGP Preventive Activities Guidelines, and the Australian Immunisation Handbook. Data Interpretation: assesses skills interpreting pathology reports, diagnostic imaging, ECG results, and Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme criteria. Mastering these areas helps ensure confident, evidence based practice throughout your career. RACGP AKT Exam Tips for First Time Candidates For first time candidates, focusing on simple yet powerful strategies can significantly improve your performance: Read each question carefully: avoid rushing. Misinterpretation can lead to avoidable errors. Pay attention to clinical context and specific wording. Manage your time strategically: allocate approximately 1 minute per question initially. This pace ensures enough time remains for revisiting flagged questions you note on your paper. Flag uncertain questions proactively: quickly circle or mark difficult items in your booklet, returning later after easier ones are confidently answered.

Balancing clinical duties, family responsibilities, and the rigorous demands of exam preparation is challenging, but achieving Fellowship is within your grasp. With clarity, practical strategies, and reliable resources, succeeding in the RACGP AKT exam becomes not just possible, but highly achievable. This comprehensive guide explains exactly what the RACGP AKT exam covers, eligibility requirements, exam structure, marking methods, essential tips, common mistakes to avoid, recommended resources, and strategic considerations if you're planning to take both the AKT and KFP together. Let’s dive in step by step, preparing you confidently for exam success. What Is the RACGP AKT Exam? The RACGP AKT exam, known formally as the Applied Knowledge Test, is an essential component of your journey towards RACGP Fellowship . It evaluates your foundational medical knowledge, clinical reasoning skills, and ability to effectively apply evidence based Australian clinical guidelines [1 ,5 ]. When you pass the AKT, it confirms your competence in areas critical for safe, independent GP practice, including: Accurate clinical reasoning in common general practice scenarios. Comprehensive recall and application of core medical knowledge. Effective use of Australian clinical guidelines such as Therapeutic Guidelines, RACGP’s Red Book, and the Australian Immunisation Handbook. Essentially, passing the AKT reassures both you and the RACGP that you're ready to manage real world GP scenarios safely. Who Can Sit the RACGP AKT Exam? Understanding eligibility is your first practical step. To sit the RACGP AKT exam, you must meet conditions outlined by the RACGP and hold appropriate AHPRA registration [5 ]. You’re eligible if you: Are enrolled in recognised GP training programs such as AGPT or RVTS. Are an International Medical Graduate who meets specific RACGP criteria. Have completed hospital based terms and gained supervised GP experience before sitting the exam. Confirming your eligibility well in advance helps streamline your exam preparation and registration processes. What Does the RACGP AKT Exam Test? The RACGP AKT exam focuses on four core areas critical for competent GP practice [1 ,5 ]: Clinical Reasoning: tests your ability to diagnose accurately, manage priorities effectively, and develop safe management plans. Medical Knowledge Recall: covers pharmacology, therapeutics, preventive health strategies, vaccination schedules, and chronic disease guidelines. Evidence Based Guideline Application: emphasises correct application of Australian guidance including Therapeutic Guidelines, RACGP Preventive Activities Guidelines, and the Australian Immunisation Handbook. Data Interpretation: assesses skills interpreting pathology reports, diagnostic imaging, ECG results, and Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme criteria. Mastering these areas helps ensure confident, evidence based practice throughout your career. Tools That Make Active Recall Easy Digital tools simplify the process of integrating active recall and spaced repetition into your RACGP exam preparation. Brainscape: Uses adaptive algorithms to determine when you should review each flashcard based on your confidence level. Anki: Allows custom deck creation for topics like PBS rules or emergency management. Quizlet: Offers collaborative decks for study groups. Using these tools allows you to: Review flashcards during commutes or between patients. Automatically revisit topics you’re struggling with. Track progress and identify weak areas. These platforms bring structure to your study plan, ensuring regular reinforcement and better recall. (For time management strategies, see our AKT Study Planner.) How to Combine These Methods for Peak Performance When you combine active recall with spaced repetition, the results are exponential. This combination, known as “spaced retrieval practice”, creates a continuous cycle of learning, forgetting, and relearning that strengthens memory. Start early (at least 6–12 months before your exam). Create flashcards for each guideline or high-yield topic. Use Brainscape or Anki daily to review material in spaced cycles. Schedule mock exams every 3–4 weeks to test your applied knowledge. Research indicates spaced repetition can significantly increase long-term retention, with spaced learners achieving approximately 58% accuracy compared to 43% among traditional learners (p<0.001) [4]. By six months into this method, most candidates report not only improved recall but also better confidence under pressure. You’re no longer scrambling to remember—you’re retrieving information automatically. FAQs About the RACGP AKT Exam 1. What is the RACGP AKT exam pass rate?

The CCE can feel intimidating because it shines a light on the lived reality of general practice. It is not a theoretical exam. It is not a silent written paper. It is a space where your reasoning, communication, empathy, and professionalism are all visible at once. That shift can feel confronting, but it is also the moment where many candidates finally recognise their strengths. This blog will help you understand what makes the CCE fundamentally different from the written exams, how to structure your consultations, how to transform AKT and KFP knowledge into confident spoken answers, how to build your own mock case library, and when to bring in the support that accelerates your progress. Use this as a guide, a structure, and a reminder that you already have the clinical foundation. Now you are learning to show it. Key differences between CCE and written RACGP exams The most important difference in the RACGP CCE vs AKT KFP comparison is that the AKT and KFP test knowledge on paper, while the CCE tests your ability to perform as a safe, thoughtful, patient centred GP in real time . The CCE brings your communication, reasoning, empathy, and structure into full view. Snippet friendly summary: The AKT and KFP evaluate your clinical knowledge and reasoning on paper. The CCE evaluates how you communicate, interact, and perform clinically in realistic general practice scenarios. This is why written exam study alone cannot prepare you fully for the CCE . To appreciate the shift, consider the exams side by side: The AKT tests knowledge. It is a multiple choice exam assessing clinical fact recall and applied knowledge. In 2024, the RACGP AKT pass rate for semester 2024.2 was 82.15 percent [1] . The AKT comprises 150 multiple choice questions and is delivered as a 4 hour paper based exam at RACGP venues [4] ,[5] . The KFP tests decision making. It asks candidates to identify key features and make safe prioritised choices. The 2024.2 KFP overall pass rate was 67.83 percent with a pass mark of 56.70 percent [2] . Current RACGP guidance describes the KFP as comprising 70 individual multi selection questions and being 4 hours in duration, delivered on paper at venues [4] ,[5] . The CCE tests real world performance. It examines how well you communicate, reason out loud, manage uncertainty, structure consultations, and handle patient concerns. The 2024.2 CCE pass rate was 89.12 percent and the 2024.1 CCE pass rate was 89.10 percent [6] ,[3] . The CCE runs as 9 clinical cases across 2 sessions, delivered online via Zoom, with 4 case discussions and 5 clinical encounters, each case 15 minutes with 5 minutes reading time [7] ,[8] . These differences mean your study approach must evolve. Written exam preparation primarily strengthens your recall and decision making. The CCE demands something broader, the ability to show your competence in a human interaction while being assessed. To reinforce this distinction, consider these examples: In the AKT, you are asked which antibiotic to choose. In the CCE, you must explain why, gain patient agreement, consider allergies, address misconceptions, and provide safety netting. In the KFP, you outline which red flags you would look for. In the CCE, you must ask them out loud, respond to emotional cues, and adapt your line of questioning. In written exams, you think silently. In the CCE, your thinking must be audible, structured, and confident. This is the heart of the shift, written exams measure what you know. The CCE measures who you are as a clinician. Why case structure and consultation flow matter more in the CCE Case structure is the backbone of CCE success. Without a clear structure, candidates lose direction and lose marks. This aligns with RACGP guidance that the CCE examines the synthesis, contextualisation, and communication of knowledge, not written knowledge regurgitation [9]. Snippet friendly summary: CCE assessors evaluate how logically and safely you move through a consultation. Without structure and clear consultation flow , even strong clinical knowledge will not translate into a passing performance. A structured consultation helps you maintain clarity and control under pressure. Examiners are not looking for robotic delivery. They are looking for consistency, safety, logic, and patient centredness. A reliable structure for the CCE includes: A warm and clear introduction Agenda setting that identifies the patient’s goals A focused but thorough history A verbalised physical examination plan Logical reasoning and clinical explanation A management plan tailored to the person in front of you Safety netting and follow up that matches the clinical risk Candidates who rely on memory rather than structure often lose direction. Consider the following real world examples that demonstrate why structure must be visible: Teen abdominal pain, you must balance confidentiality, rapport, ruling out serious causes, and managing parental anxiety. A complex chronic disease consult, patients with diabetes and depression require prioritisation and clear signposting to maintain clarity. A time pressured acute scenario, without structure, you may spend too long on history and limit time for management, one of the most heavily weighted domains. RACGP reminds candidates that the CCE examines the synthesis, contextualisation and communication of knowledge rather than written knowledge regurgitation [9]. This means your structure is not simply a study tool. It is part of the assessment itself. Building a CCE mock library from your own notes Many candidates underestimate how powerful it is to turn existing AKT and KFP notes into CCE practice cases. You already have hundreds of conditions, guidelines, and clinical scenarios in your study materials. Converting these into role play scenarios allows you to practise exactly what the CCE assesses, applied, communicative, patient centred care. Snippet friendly summary: Building a personal CCE mock case library gives you targeted practice and ensures you can rehearse realistic consultations drawn from the content you already know well. How to build your mock library: Convert each topic into a short presenting complaint Add psychosocial details to mimic real GP complexity Write possible examiner prompts for case discussions List expected history questions, examination steps, and investigations Create management plans and safety netting statements Adapt each case to different ages, cultural backgrounds, and risk levels Add new cases inspired by real patients each week The RACGP provides preparation resources, including two part CCE modules that contain cases, marking grids, and video examples, which you can reference while you build and calibrate your library [10] . RACGP also emphasises that everyday patient encounters inform CCE case design, so using your clinic presentations as seeds for cases keeps practice realistic [10] . This means every patient you see can become a future exam case. A simple UTI consult can become a CCE case involving antibiotic stewardship, sexual health, and safety netting. A fever in a toddler can become a complex parental reassurance scenario. FAQ, RACGP CCE vs AKT KFP Exam Preparation 1. What is the main difference between RACGP CCE and AKT KFP? RACGP CCE vs AKT KFP highlights an essential difference, AKT and KFP evaluate written knowledge and clinical reasoning, while the CCE evaluates real time communication, structured consultation skills, and safe patient management across 9 cases with defined timing and online delivery [7] ,[8] ,[9]. 2. Why is written exam study not enough for the CCE? Written study builds knowledge and reasoning, but the CCE requires applied skills. You must verbalise your reasoning, respond to emotion, manage uncertainty, and communicate clearly with patients. These are assessed explicitly in the CCE format and rubric, not just in answers on paper [8] ,[9]. 3. How can I practise consultation skills for the CCE? Role play is essential. Work with peers or tutors to practise structured consultations, verbal reasoning, patient explanations, management plans, and safety netting. Use RACGP CCE preparation modules with cases and marking grids to align practice with examiner expectations [10] ,[11] . 4. Is building my own CCE mock case library useful? Yes. Creating your own mock cases from AKT and KFP notes personalises your preparation and strengthens your ability to perform in realistic scenarios. This aligns with RACGP preparation resources that encourage deliberate practice with case discussions and clinical encounters [10] . 5. When should I seek a CCE tutor or study partner? Seek help when you notice difficulty with structure, time management, anxiety, or consistent errors. RACGP materials recommend collaborative preparation and provide guidance on exam processes, timing, and expectations that study groups and tutors can help you meet [11] ,[7] ,[8] . When to bring in a CCE tutor or study partner Not every candidate needs a tutor, but almost every candidate benefits from external feedback at the right stage. Recognising the moment when self study stops being enough is critical. An outside perspective can accelerate your progress more than any other strategy. Snippet friendly summary: Seek a CCE tutor or study partner if your performance is inconsistent, if you struggle with time, or if you need structured feedback to improve. Typical signs that external support will help include: Ongoing difficulty completing cases within 15 minutes Persistent anxiety under timed conditions Trouble articulating your clinical reasoning clearly Repetitive errors despite self correction Difficulty building rapport in role plays Poor structure or loss of flow in complex cases A preference for structured accountability and guidance The RACGP encourages collaborative preparation and participation in study groups for discussion and feedback, a stance echoed across official preparation pages and handbooks [11] . Study partners offer a safe space to practise and refine your consultation flow. Tutors can provide deeper insights. They identify subtle communication issues, reorganise your structure, challenge your reasoning, and prepare you for the unpredictability of real CCE scenarios. Early support is powerful. You do not need to wait for written exam results to begin CCE practice, and early practice improves confidence and performance within the exam model described above, 9 cases across 2 sessions with clear timing rules, 15 minutes per case plus 5 minutes reading time [7] ,[8] . How to convert AKT KFP knowledge into oral CCE answers Even top performing AKT and KFP candidates sometimes struggle to express their reasoning out loud. This is because the cognitive process for answering written questions is fundamentally different from spoken communication. You must now verbalise ideas that you were previously allowed to write silently. Snippet friendly summary: To succeed in the CCE, you must translate written knowledge into clear, confident spoken communication. This means verbalising your reasoning step by step and explaining your decisions in patient friendly language. This is where the well known distinction becomes essential, AKT tests what you know, KFP tests how you apply knowledge, and the CCE tests how you show it in practice [9]. Practical strategies for oral conversion include: Speak your thoughts aloud daily during clinical work Summarise what the patient has said at appropriate intervals Explain why each investigation or decision matters Use short, clear sentences that a layperson can understand Practise uncertainty statements such as, I am considering several possibilities Rehearse teach back techniques to confirm patient understanding Engage peers to interrupt you during practice to simulate realistic pressure Consider this comparison: In the KFP, you might write, “Order an urgent ECG and troponin.” In the CCE, you must articulate it, “I am concerned this might be related to your heart. I want to perform an ECG immediately and monitor you closely while we arrange urgent transfer.” CCE resources from the RACGP repeatedly emphasise practising cases out loud with attention to reasoning and communication, including using guided preparation modules and marking grids available to members [10] . CCE preparation marks a meaningful shift from knowledge to practice. You already possess the clinical foundation. Now you are refining the art of communication, structure, and safe decision making.

Tools That Make Active Recall Easy Digital tools simplify the process of integrating active recall and spaced repetition into your RACGP exam preparation. Brainscape: Uses adaptive algorithms to determine when you should review each flashcard based on your confidence level. Anki: Allows custom deck creation for topics like PBS rules or emergency management. Quizlet: Offers collaborative decks for study groups. Using these tools allows you to: Review flashcards during commutes or between patients. Automatically revisit topics you’re struggling with. Track progress and identify weak areas. These platforms bring structure to your study plan, ensuring regular reinforcement and better recall. (For time management strategies, see our AKT Study Planner.) How to Combine These Methods for Peak Performance When you combine active recall with spaced repetition, the results are exponential. This combination, known as “spaced retrieval practice”, creates a continuous cycle of learning, forgetting, and relearning that strengthens memory. Start early (at least 6–12 months before your exam). Create flashcards for each guideline or high-yield topic. Use Brainscape or Anki daily to review material in spaced cycles. Schedule mock exams every 3–4 weeks to test your applied knowledge. Research indicates spaced repetition can significantly increase long-term retention, with spaced learners achieving approximately 58% accuracy compared to 43% among traditional learners (p<0.001) [4]. By six months into this method, most candidates report not only improved recall but also better confidence under pressure. You’re no longer scrambling to remember—you’re retrieving information automatically. FAQ, RACGP CCE vs AKT KFP Exam Preparation 1. What is the main difference between RACGP CCE and AKT KFP?
