Landmark studies and evidence-based practice: ANZCA Final viva practice
Knowing the evidence and being able to say how it should — and shouldn't — change practice. Weighing a study rather than just citing it is what's wanted.

How to prepare for it out loud
Reading about landmark studies and evidence-based practice and being asked about it are different skills. In the room you have to commit to an opening line, hold a structure while the examiner probes, and keep talking sense under time. The fastest way to build that is repetition — being questioned on the topic often enough that the shape of a good answer becomes automatic.
- Lead with a frame. Open with the structure you'll use before the detail — it tells the examiner you know where the answer is going, and it stops you drifting.
- Answer the question asked. A short answer that squarely lands the point is a good answer — the examiner can always prompt for more. Padding is what gets marked down, not brevity.
- Practise the follow-ups. Marks are won and lost where the examiner drills past your first answer. A practice viva that keeps probing is worth more than re-reading the chapter.
Sit a landmark studies and evidence-based practice station
Viva Station generates a fresh landmark studies and evidence-based practicescenario, puts you in front of a spoken AI examiner that asks one question at a time and drills where you're vague, then marks you to the standard with domain-by-domain comments. Your first 2 stations are free.
