How written marking works

You write the answer. Here it comes back marked.

The commonest way to lose marks is a generic answer: good medicine, for a different patient or a different question. The marking rewards only what the rubric rewards.

Your answer, typed under timingCase Reporting · medium case

A 46-year-old woman with right upper quadrant discomfort and normal liver function has a multiphase CT of the liver. Describe the findings (4 marks) and give the most likely diagnosis (2 marks). (6 marks)

There is a haemangioma in segment VII of the liver measuring 4 cm. Differentials include hypervascular metastasis, hepatocellular carcinoma and focal nodular hyperplasia.

Examiner-style marking, seconds later2 / 5

✓Solitary 4 cm lesion in segment VII1/1
✗Arterial phase: peripheral, discontinuous nodular enhancement, matching the aorta0/1
✗Portal venous and delayed phases: progressive centripetal fill-in, following the blood pool0/1
✗Pertinent negatives: no washout or capsule; non-cirrhotic liver0/1
✓Diagnosis: hepatic (cavernous) haemangioma, as a single answer1/2

Marking note: You named the diagnosis instead of describing the findings, so the four finding marks were lost. Examiners want the enhancement pattern that earns the diagnosis. Then the differential list diluted a correct single answer. When the question asks for the most likely diagnosis, give one.

Why Fellowship Ready

Knowing the medicine isn't the same as passing the exam.

Candidates who fail are rarely told which sentence lost the mark. The commonest causes are not gaps in knowledge: a generic answer, a different question answered, an examination done out of order, the clock run out. Each is fixed by practice that is timed and marked.

Findings first, then one diagnosis

Case Reporting rubrics put the marks in the descriptors: phase, pattern, location and the pertinent negatives. The diagnosis is worth only what the question says, so a hedged list of differentials gains nothing.

Every module, on its own clock

Phase 1 Anatomy and AIT, Phase 2 Pathology, the Clinical Radiology MCQ and Case Reporting, and the seven OSCER stations, each at the real paper's pace.

The reporting systems, applied

BI-RADS, O-RADS and IOTA, LI-RADS, TI-RADS, Lung-RADS, Fleischner and Bosniak, each with the management it triggers and the trap examiners set.

The exam, on the clock.

Most candidates who fail know the medicine. They run out of time, answer a different question, or are not specific enough. Practice under the clock, marked the way examiners mark, is the fix.

01 · OSCER

7 stations, on the real clock.

25:00 in the station, as on the day. Patients, relatives and examiners are played by an AI so you can practise alone, or a colleague runs the station with the script, the findings and the marking sheet.

Acute neurovascular imaging: large vessel occlusion, lobar haemorrhage, venous sinus thrombosis

You are the on-call radiology registrar at a metropolitan comprehensive stroke centre. You will be shown three acute neurovascular cases on the viewer. For each, the examiner will ask you to describe the findings, give the single most likely diagnosis and say what you would do next, including who you would contact. Scroll the full stack of each series before answering. Answer in the order asked; when asked for one diagnosis, give one. You have 25 minutes for all three cases; the examiner will move you on if time runs short.

Describe the findings on each case systematically, including measurements and scores where relevant.
Give the single most likely diagnosis for each case.
State the immediate management implications and how you would communicate them.

02 · Anatomy and AIT papers

Write the answer. Get it marked.

Anatomy (3 h, 180 marks: 20 image-labelling, 30 very short and 20 three-mark short answers, plus 60 MCQs) and AIT (3 h, 150 marks: nine 10-mark constructed responses plus 60 MCQs); constructed-answer time shown here. Every answer is marked point by point against a rubric that rewards what RANZCR examiners reward: specific points, the exact question answered, safe advice.
