The CASC (Clinical Assessment of Skills and Competencies) is the final clinical component of the MRCPsych exam pathway. It is an OSCE-style practical assessment designed to evaluate clinical reasoning, communication skills, patient interaction, risk assessment, and psychiatric management abilities in simulated clinical scenarios.
The examination consists of 16 stations conducted across linked and individual scenarios, where candidates interact with simulated patients and examiners under timed conditions. The CASC assesses a candidate’s ability to apply psychiatric knowledge safely and effectively in real-world clinical practice.
