Now in its fourth edition, Oxford Assess and Progress: Situational Judgement Test is the definitive guide for students preparing to sit the Situational Judgement Test (SJT). It features over 300 practical questions in five categories: commitment to professionalism, coping with pressure, effective communication, patient focus and working effectively as part of a team. All scenarios are based on real experiences informed by candidates who have sat the SJT to ensure that the questions closely mirror the content of the real exam. There are two practice tests with a mix of question types (e.g. multiple choice or ranking), content (e.g. domain- tested), and styles (e.g. patient, colleague, or personal), which allow candidates to prepare for exam day and practice their timings - one of the biggest challenges in the examination. Written by junior doctors and overseen by experts in assessment, this guide demystifies the SJT, allowing you to achieve the best possible score and take control of the first stage of your career.
