Talk, don't type
A live voice patient answers in character and can be interrupted mid-sentence, like a real consultation. Each station keeps the same patient voice every time you sit it.
For IMGs sitting the AMC clinical exam or PLAB2
Stop waiting on a study partner to practise out loud.
ClinicalVitals runs full stations with a voice patient who answers in character, real exam timing and bells, and a scorecard mapped to every assessment domain — 13 for AMC, 3 for PLAB2 — so you find out what you missed while there is still time to fix it.
One-time payment. No subscription.

How it works
One station, ten minutes, graded
0:00 – 1:30 / 2:00
Read the stem
You get the candidate reading stem — history summary, vitals, and your task. The countdown starts automatically and runs against a real deadline, so switching tabs buys you nothing.
2:00 – 10:00
Consult the patient
A live voice patient answers in character and can be interrupted mid-sentence, so you can redirect the way you would in the room. A chime at one minute remaining tells you to wrap up.
Immediately after
Get your scorecard
Your transcript is graded as soon as the station ends: domain scores, a pass or fail, your strengths, and the specific misses to fix before the next station.
Why it works
Built to the exam's own rules
Master the 8-minute pressure
Two minutes reading, eight minutes consulting, a chime at one minute left. Timed off the clock rather than the tab — no untimed practice habits to unlearn.
An examiner in the room
Ask for examination findings or investigations and the examiner answers aloud, then puts questions to you in the closing minutes. (AMC format; PLAB2 stations have no viva.)
Know exactly why you passed or failed
Scored 1–7 across all 13 assessment domains, with a pass or fail, your strengths, and the specific misses — not a generic “how did I do” summary.
Marked against your exam's guidelines
AMC stations are graded to eTG, the RACGP Red Book, and Australian consent standards. PLAB2 stations are graded to NICE, the BNF, and current NHS practice.
Your accent is not being marked
Marking assumes a transcription error before a candidate error, and grammar and accent carry no marks. You are assessed on clinical reasoning.
Grading
Every domain the examiners use
- Approach to the Patient
- History Taking
- Choice and Technique of Examination
- Accuracy of Examination
- Familiarity with Test Equipment
- Performance of Procedure
- Explanation of Procedure
- Commentary to Examiner
- Choice of Investigations
- Interpretation of Investigation
- Diagnosis / Differential Diagnoses
- Management Plan
- Patient Counselling and Education
AMC stations are scored 1–7 across all 13 domains above, with a global rating of 4 or above to pass. PLAB2 stations are scored 0–4 across 3 domains (Data-gathering, Clinical management, Interpersonal skills), passing at a combined total of 8 or above.
A tutoring session costs hundreds. A station costs $15.
One station, one full scorecard (13 domains for AMC, 3 for PLAB2), and a written list of what to fix — and you will hear yourself under exam conditions tonight.
