FRCA Reveal 12+

An excellent resource! I used it for the Final viva. It was fantastic for helping me plan and structure my revision around the curriculum; short succinct facts in really easy to use places. Great to lend supervisors as a basis for asking viva questions but particularly great for reading while in theatre or during breaks/ gaps etc. One topic can be revised very quickly. Great tracker for progress too. The info is spot on and covers just the right amount. The ‘direction the viva could take’ tab was amazing at helping you think of how other topics may feed in to each other. For the price it was an astounding addition to my revision and I have and will continue to recommend highly!

I’ve really enjoyed using this app so far and it’s very easy to navigate. The information is bite size with good diagrams. Some of the hardest topics especially in physics are very well laid out and have made it much easier to learn and understand.

Suggestion: please fix your log in system. It logs out and sometimes takes forever to log back in. Having to force the app closed multiple times before it dies. Also please make the app available off line. It would be great to be able to use it on our commute to work and in theatres with very poor signal! Surely there’s a way and not sure why it’s not already as all the content is already there and doesn’t require downloading. Would have given a 5 star otherwise.

So I studied for the final written over a six month period using a various resources including the god awful BJA. On exam day, my mind was a jumble and I was certain I failed. When I passed I was beyond surprised and very happy.

As I sit now preparing for the SOE I realise I should have just used this for both exams. It seems to cover the whole curriculum and the bits I’m vaguely interested in I can look up if I feel like it. This is a great purchase and has simplified my revision.

The creators book “basic physiology for anaesthetists” was invaluable during primary revision. Thanks!
