title: Providing feedback to students on clinical skills by using the Objective Structured Clinical Examination.
abstract: Student opinions of some methods of how and when to provide feedback on clinical skills in the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) were gathered. Feedback with their marked checklists plus a model videorecording was preferred to either on its own. Feedback was preferred during the examination rather than after it. No undue stress appeared to be associated with receiving feedback during the examination. Valuable extra instruction to students can be provided with minimal staff input.
