Very concise slides, and detailed feedback. The demonstration and explanation of why each question is asked is very good, it gives a very clear idea. I like the way the session is conducted, and that detailed explanation makes me understand why the questions need to be asked. The Mock was really good too, the Drs guide me through when I am stuck. Feedback is really good. Beneficial and fruitful session.Very detailed feedback after the scenario practice. Interactive. Overall a good session! Thank you! .
