Built to mirror the real exam
Every feature is designed around how PACES is actually examined.
Built around Stations 2 and 5
Designed around the PACES 2023 consultation format, where Stations 2 and 5 are 20-minute integrated consultations, not isolated history-taking exercises.
Real-time voice patient interaction
Ask questions naturally and move the consultation forward in real time. The patient responds to your wording, pace, and line of questioning.
Examiner-style follow-up questions
The consultation does not stop at history-taking. You are challenged with follow-up questions that mirror the examiner discussion built into the consultation stations.
7-skill grading after every case
PACES assesses candidates across seven core skills, and the consultation stations assess all seven together. StationReady grades against those same domains.
265 cases across all PACES encounters
119 consultation cases, 78 communication stations, and 68 clinical examination cases — enough range for repeated practice without cycling through the same scenarios.
Communication Stations
78 communication cases — breaking bad news, consent, ethics, and angry relatives with feedback mapped to PACES marking domains.
Practice PACES on your phone.
Feels like a native app.
Install StationReady directly to your home screen — no App Store needed. Cases load instantly, audio plays offline, and the full platform works on any device.
Practice the PACES station candidates leave too late
10-minute AI-simulated encounters — breaking bad news, consent, angry relatives, and ethical dilemmas — with feedback mapped to the real PACES marking domains.
Emotionally realistic AI patients
Distressed, angry, tearful or in denial — patients that respond to your approach and adjust to your communication style.
Real PACES mark scheme
Scored against the same 4 domains your examiner uses on exam day — not a generic communication rubric.
Full audio walkthroughs
Hear how experts handle bad news, consent, and difficult conversations before practising yourself.
Built-in frameworks
SPIKES, ICE, Calgary-Cambridge, Mental Capacity Act — embedded in every case so you learn the structure as you practise.
Ethics and capacity
DNAR, driving, withholding information, self-discharge — the cases that trip candidates up most in the real exam.
Instant feedback
Know exactly where you scored on each domain and what to say differently next time.
How it works
Four steps from case selection to feedback.
Choose a PACES case
Select from 265 cases across consultation and communication stations, or 68 clinical examination cases covering cardiovascular, respiratory, abdominal, and neurological encounters.
Run the consultation
Work through the encounter as you would in Stations 2 and 5: take a history, perform a focused examination, explain your thinking, and address patient concerns. Your AI voice patient responds in real time.
Face examiner follow-up
Move straight into examiner-style questioning, reflecting the 5-minute Q&A that follows every consultation in Stations 2 and 5. Vague differentials and shaky management plans get exposed here.
Review your marking
Receive immediate feedback across all 7 PACES skills: physical examination, identifying physical signs, communication, differential diagnosis, clinical judgement, managing patient concerns, and maintaining patient welfare.
