A floating widget for SCA revision practice with timer, phase tracking, quick prompts, and notes.
SCA Revision Helper by SCA Prep is the ultimate revision companion for the MRCGP exam.
The SCA Revision Helper is a powerful, lightweight Chrome Extension designed specifically for GPs preparing for the Simulated Consultation Assessment (SCA). It injects a discreet, floating widget into your browser, allowing you to practice SCA cases on any website or revision platform (like SCA Prep, FourteenFish, SCA Revision) without switching tabs or losing focus.
Designed by the team at SCA Prep, this tool mimics the real exam flow, helping you build strict time management habits and structured consultation techniques.
Key Features
- Intelligent Exam Timer
- Dual-Timer System: Automatically transitions from a 3-minute Prep timer (for reading case notes) to a 12-minute Consultation timer.
- Visual Cues: The timer changes color (yellow/red) as you approach critical time limits, ensuring you never overrun.
- Fully Configurable: Adjust the consultation duration (1-30 mins) and data gathering phase to suit your practice style.
Smart Phase Tracking
- Two-Phase Structure: Automatically highlights your current phase: Data Gathering (first 6 mins) → Management.
- Stay on Track: Visual prompts help you balance your time, ensuring you leave enough room for management and safety netting.
Quick Reference Prompts (Fully Customisable)
- Instant Access: Expandable cards for ICE, Red Flags, DDx, Safety Net, and Follow-up.
- Edit & Reorder: Create your own custom prompts or edit the defaults via the Options page. Tailor them to your own mnemonics or weak spots!
Auto-Saving Notes
- Context-Aware: Type case notes directly into the widget.
- Persistent: Notes are saved automatically and linked to the specific website you are on; perfect for reviewing past cases on revision platforms.
Seamless & Unobtrusive
- Floating & Draggable: Move the widget anywhere on the screen.
= Collapsible: Minimise it to a tiny bar when not in use.
Keyboard Shortcut: Toggle visibility instantly with Ctrl + Shift + Y (or Cmd + Shift + Y on Mac).
