Suturing in the CSC goes techy in 2021! Thanks to the help of RVC AV technician (Chris) students are able to view suturing demonstrations in detail and at a safe distance.

Tip 1 - Don't worry about mistakes you may THINK you have made. Approach each station with a 'fresh start. Tip 2 - Read and RE-READ the scenario. Make sure you are doing what is being asked of you.

Tip 3 - If there is a calculation, you will be given a calculator, pen and paper. Write your workings down in full so you can go back to it if needed. Tip 4 - Use your REST stations. Have a drink of water, go to the bathroom. Stepping out of the circuit can help with exam stress.
