What SCA Timer is for
SCA Timer is a practice timer for the MRCGP Simulated Consultation Assessment (SCA). It’s for revision and practice only.
Not affiliated with the RCGP
SCA Timer is independent and isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by the Royal College of General Practitioners. Exam information on this site is based on the RCGP’s published guidance when it was written, and that guidance can change. Always check the RCGP’s website and the details sent for your own sitting.
