Specialty Recruitment Assessment

🇬🇧 Specialty Recruitment Assessment (SRA)

The Specialty Recruitment Assessment (SRA) is a crucial step for medical graduates seeking entry into UK specialty training programs.
It evaluates both clinical knowledge and professional judgment, key attributes for success in competitive medical specialties.
Excelling in the SRA significantly increases your chances of securing a training position in your chosen field.

✅ What Is the SRA?

The SRA is an important part of the selection process for highly sought-after specialties such as:

General Practice
Psychiatry
Radiology
Obstetrics and Gynaecology

This assessment ensures that only the most capable, well-prepared candidates progress to the interview and selection stages.

📋 SRA Format and Components

The SRA consists of two main sections, each designed to assess a different dimension of your readiness:

Professional Dilemmas
This part tests your ability to manage realistic clinical, ethical, and interpersonal scenarios, measuring professionalism, judgment, and integrity.

Clinical Problem Solving
Focused on your medical knowledge, this section assesses diagnostic skills, investigation selection, and appropriate treatment decisions across a range of specialties.

Together, these sections offer a comprehensive evaluation of both your decision-making and medical reasoning.
