Exam Preparation Services at SK Health

At SK Health, we understand that passing international medical licensing and membership exams requires more than just studying—it requires strategy, structure, and expert guidance. That’s why our exam preparation services combine hands-on teaching, small group learning, and personalized advisory support, ensuring that you are fully equipped—both academically and mentally—for success.

Our courses are designed by practicing doctors and experienced medical educators who understand the exam formats, expectations, and common challenges. Whether you're preparing for PLAB, MRCP, MRCGP, or OET, we offer comprehensive, practical, and flexible support tailored to your needs.

Our PLAB 1 preparation services provide a blended learning experience, combining interactive teaching with structured advisory support.

What’s Included:

• Hands-On Small Group Sessions
  Interactive, clinically-focused classes led by doctors familiar with the PLAB structure. You’ll work in small groups to ensure personalized attention, active learning, and efficient revision.

  Personalized study plans, exam strategies, and one-on-one consultations to help you maximize your time and focus on your weak areas. We help you choose the best resources and refine your preparation timeline.

This well-rounded approach ensures you’re not just studying, but learning how to study smarter and more effectively.
