About this course
Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) is one of the most challenging areas of the MRCEM Primary exam. Concepts can feel abstract, statistics confusing, and exam questions deliberately subtle. This focused webinar recording is designed to make EBM clearer, more logical, and far more approachable.
Using an exam-focused, practical teaching style, the session breaks down core EBM principles and shows you how to approach typical MRCEM Primary questions with confidence. The recording focuses on understanding how questions are written, recognising common traps, and applying simple frameworks to reach the correct answer efficiently.
The webinar covers:
• Core principles of Evidence-Based Medicine for the MRCEM Primary
• Study design and hierarchy of evidence
• Key statistical concepts commonly tested in the exam
• Interpreting typical EBM question formats
• Practical exam tips to avoid common mistakes
