Dear Dr Rege, I just received the news that I passed my CASC exam and I would like to take the opportunity to express my gratitude for all the CASC videos you made. I wouldn't have made it without them. Thank you!
I want to inform you that I was successful in the recent April 2018 OSCEs. This was my first attempt. I attended your Melbourne OSCE course, since which I found the material/structure/course/feedback all very valuable. I have been relying on the psych interview subscription videos, which in addition to the course have been great resources for this exam. Thank You for all your hard work, dedication, passion, humility and honesty over the years.
Psych interview is one of the best website that helps me as a General practitioner to improve my mental health skills not only for the exam purposes but for day to day general practice life. Psychiatry was difficult topic for me to study before my AMC and fellowship exam but after I watched the psych interview videos it becomes my favourite topic actually I passed all the psych cases in both AMC and RACGP OSCE exams I highly recommend to every GP in the country. Thank you so much Sanil for the effort you put in. Well done.
I wanted to let you know that I passed the OSCE exam! It wasn't possible without the Psychinterview videos which are just too good!! You can watch them anywhere from the mobile phone. Little notes on bottom screen are perfectly timed! I was worried though, in case I introduce myself as Dr Rege in exam stations! That didn't happen in the exam. Can;t thank you enough for all the courses you run and I have attended all of them. They are an important part of my fellowship journey. Big thanks to you.
The OSCE videos from Psychinterview were really helpful. Considering I had no practice group they were a great resource for me and I passed the OSCE's first go.
“I just wanted to inform you that I passed all my exams and have been granted Fellowship this week! I did the MOCI and MOSCE this year Sep/Oct and the written last year. I passed all three exams the first time and I can't thank you enough for your absolute fabulous courses. I did all three and the Psychinterview as well. I can say without doubt that without them I would not have been able to do it.Thank you, thank you, thank you”
“Excellent videos! In Psychiatry I think trainees do not get the opportunity to sit in on interviews conducted by consultants as often as they should. Therefore these videos are excellent for modelling purposes not only for exams but for actual clinical practice.”
“I would like to express my gratitude and thank you for your videos of CASC practice that helped me to pass MRCPsych exam.”
“I have finally passed my CASC examinations and I cannot deny that Psych Interview played an important role in preparing me for the exams. I learnt to give my interview more structure and use excellent interview skills which were displayed by Dr Rege who has been a great help. Thanks again to all staff involved in the making of the videos. Your hard work is not in vain!”
“I find these videos quite useful, well structured and extremely helpful for both CASC and day-to-day practice. Well done Psych Interview and all staff involved in making the videos!”
“I have eventually passed the fellowship exam this time. Certainly material in your preparation course and psych interview is of highest standard. I modified my interview techniques based on learning videos which eventually worked for me. Thanks”
“I have passed the Exemption Candidate Exam, Nov 2010 in the first go. I attended the CTF workshop, went through the CTF course booklets on OCI and OSCE, and also practiced with the videos on Psych Interview. I definitely believe that your course materials have been extremely useful in my cruising through the fellowship exam! Thank you for the good work you are doing for the student community and the patients at large.”
“I passed the clinicals on the first attempt with the CTF Course as my main preparation tool. Also Psych Interview helped me a lot in preparing for the MOSCE's. I don’t think passing the exam would have been possible without these two courses, and I am strongly recommending them to everyone. I think it is the best investment I have done in my life... Doing the maths: reappearing costs $3000; and courses together cost $1800 minus the stress and triumph of passing... Thanks for masterminding such an innovative course.”
“Indeed you have accomplished a great job in making the fabulous interview videos. They are a very valuable resource . They do demonstrate not only the process and content of psychiatric interviewing, but also a focussed approach to the task in OSCEs. Really commendable !!!!”
“Extremely helpful, well organized and sophisticated teaching tool. An absolute must for RANZCP Clinicals.”
“I found these videos very helpful for my CASC preparations. The pace of the interviews, the tips and the use of ICD 10 / DSM criterias were very helpful. The only drawback was that some of these videos were too long from the CASC's point of view. Nevertheless good. I will definitely be recommending it to my friends and colleagues. Thank you.”
“Dear Sanil, Thank you and your team for valuable resources psych interviews and other teaching sessions. They are very relevant and useful. I passed my october clinical exam. Best regards for the future.”
“ Many thanks Dr Rege for the psychiatric interview website. I literally went through each and every video as though there were my bible. Watching how to complete a diagnostic interview within 12-15 minutes gave me a positive spin to the whole exam process. I applied these skills to both OCI and OSCE. The scenarios were exam orientated and certainly applicable to OCI as well. Initially, I found it an impossible task to memorise all the questions to ask for each Axis I diagnosis, however by going through the videos many times, I absorbed the questions passively, almost like an osmosis process. I utilised my I phone to listen to the videos during my driving time. What a wonder! The anxiety spectrum videos are extremely helpful because I do not normally have a lot of contact with clients with OCD, PTSD or GAD. These scenarios improved my diagnostic skills in these areas. Although I did not have formal teaching sessions, passing the exam was made possible through the Psych Interview videos. They are well organised and structured without unnecessary details. The footnotes were a fantastic way of highlighting the crucial points. Learning could not be more fun than this, and I highly recommend anyone who is sitting for the clinical examination to utilise the Psych Interview videos.”
“Hello, I've purchased the Psych Interview videos and I found them absolutely fantastic! I feel optimistic about changing from a weak registrar to a competent one.”
“Congrats on the excellent website, videos and materials. Sanil has done a great job again.”
“I bought Psych Interview yesterday. It is really very good and I am feeling very hopeful about my exam preparation.”
“Psych interview helped me to improve my communication skills and my confidence to face CASC.”
“These videos are absolutely fabulous. I've found that my interviewing skills are improving. Interviews are very focussed. The added section on Management Plans is very good. I'm glad you started the site early enough for me to work with them before the clinicals. Well done Psych Interview.”
“Hi Psych Interview. Just want to say a big THANK YOU for amazing videos. I absolutely love them. Your contribution to Registrars' education and training is incredible.”
“I am finding the interviews really helpful - very focused and clearly organised.”
“I have the CASC exam next week, and was browsing the web in the hope of finding something useful. I came across your clip on YouTube, and followed the link to your site. I am really disappointed not to have found you earlier, as the two demo videos were very good. Although a different format to the CASC exam, the content is completely relevant. Congratulations on a great training resource - it puts our own support to shame.”
“I used Psych Interview to help me pass the CASC. Very good introductory material to psychiatry OSCE's.”
“Terrific videos. I've often found it difficult to SEE an EXAM QUALITY interview demonstrated so this collection is spot on. Are you planning to add more?”
“Very well designed, with quality interviews; has helped me to change and reflect upon my old style.”
