Oxford Assess and Progress: Situational Judgement Test

Returning for a fourth edition, Oxford Assess and Progress: Situational Judgement Test is the definitive guide for students preparing to sit the Situational Judgement Test (SJT) for entry into the UK Foundation Programme. Featuring over 300 practical questions mapped to the Foundation Programme curriculum and latest GMC guidance, this new edition has been fully updated to maximise your SJT score.

All scenarios are based on real experiences informed by practising doctors and medical students who have sat the SJT to ensure that the questions closely mirror the content of the real exam. Two practice tests allow candidates to prepare for exam day and practice their timings - one of the biggest challenges in the exam.

Written by junior doctors and overseen by experts in medical assessment, this guide demystifies the SJT, allowing you to achieve the best possible score and take control of the first stage of your medical career.
