A Helpful Framework for MEQ Questions
These webinars are excellent at framing how to think about MEQ questions. They have been very helpful.
Outstanding Support for Psychiatry Trainees
You are doing an amazing job for psychiatry trainees.
Structured and Efficient MEQ Preparation
I found the Psych Scene Exam Prep Course to be a valuable and well-structured resource for preparing for the MEQ exam. The course helped me better understand what the exam is assessing and, importantly, how to approach questions in a structured, focused and time-efficient way.
A Commitment to Continuous Improvement
Overall, the webinar was very helpful. Having also attended in January 2026, I could see Psych Scene’s commitment to continuous improvement being put into practice, particularly through the new pre-course material on question structure.
Practical Quizzes Using Past Questions
The quizzes are very helpful. They work through past exam questions and provide a practical approach to structuring an answer.
Revisitable Resources for Exam Preparation
The online resources provide very helpful content on exam structure and technique that can be revisited as needed.
A Comprehensive Course Booklet
The course booklet contains excellent information and a wealth of knowledge, although the volume of material can feel a little overwhelming at times.
Valuable for Trainees and Psychiatry Colleagues
I would recommend this course to trainee colleagues and to other psychiatry colleagues as a refresher.
Relevant Training with Practical Techniques
The training was completely relevant and included helpful tips and techniques.
Well-Structured and Detailed Course
The course was well structured and detailed.
Making MEQ Questions Easier to Approach
Working through past exam questions was highly relevant and valuable. I especially appreciated how Dr Rege identified common patterns across questions, making them easier to approach and less overwhelming than viewing each as a completely different scenario.
Clinical Wisdom Delivered with Humility
Dr Sanil’s teaching method—including his humility and openness to feedback—draws on a gold mine of wisdom from years of clinical experience and exam teaching.
Helpful and Effective Teaching
The teaching was very helpful.
Clear Teaching That Builds Confidence
Dr Rege has excellent knowledge and delivers it in a way that is easy to understand and follow. His teaching also instils confidence.
Engaging, Exam-Focused Course Content
The course struck a really good balance, covering the content while engaging with past exam-paper vignettes in real time.
MCQ Success on My Second Attempt
Thank you so much for the MCQ tutorial. It was incredibly helpful, and I really appreciated the time and effort that went into it. The last-minute resources, particularly the 400 practice questions, made a real difference. Many of the question themes felt familiar during the exam, which helped me work through it more quickly and with greater confidence. I’m very pleased to share that I passed the MCQ. My exam result was significantly higher than the scores I had been achieving in practice, which was such an encouraging outcome. As this was my second attempt, I’m especially grateful to have succeeded this time. Thank you again for your support and for contributing to this achievement.
Invaluable MEQ Exam Preparation
I passed the MEQ exam on my first attempt. The weekend course was invaluable. I took time to read and plan, used key buzzwords from the stem, and applied the structure taught in the course. The lived experience question initially caught me off guard, but using the structure, I was able to dissect and brainstorm my response. The course was incredibly helpful, and I have recommended it to my fellow registrars.
Supporting Trainees - MCQ Exam Preparation
I am thrilled to share that I was successful in the March 2026 MCQ sitting, in large part due to the wonderful resources available through Psych Scene. Thank you, as always, for the fabulous work you do supporting us, trainees.
Invaluable Support for MCQ and MEQ Exam Preparation
Psych Scene has been invaluable in helping me pass both my MCQ and MEQ examinations this year. Dr Rege’s explanations of key concepts across psychiatry are always well structured and easy to follow. The critical analysis videos, in particular, were excellent at breaking down what can initially feel like a jargon-heavy area for the MCQ, helping me feel less overwhelmed by those questions. The live MEQ course was also excellent for ensuring we had the right balance of breadth and depth in our answers, which really helped refine my exam technique. I appreciated being able to ask questions and receive in-the-moment feedback, including examples of different ways to approach question stems. The marking was also very helpful, as it provided constructive feedback and a more experienced perspective on my answer style. This helped me identify domains I needed to remember to cover. I would absolutely recommend Psych Scene to other registrars preparing for exams.
MEQ exam success
I wish to express my sincere gratitude to Dr Sanil Rege for his teachings. The MEQ course has helped me pass the MEQ exams with a great score. His clear explanations, structured approach, and emphasis on clinical reasoning and understanding the questions were invaluable in helping me prepare for the MEQ exams.
Best educational sites for Psychiatry
Psych Scene is one of the best educational sites for Psychiatry. Thank you for all your hard work in providing easily accessible information to registrars like me.
Exceptional Content, Excellent Results
Our group of three relied solely on your material for the MCQ exam, and we’re thrilled to share that we all passed with flying colours. The quality of the content and the effort you’ve invested in making complex concepts so accessible are truly outstanding. We’re deeply grateful for your dedication and hard work.
Confidence, Clarity, and Clinical Reasoning: A Game-Changer for MEQ Success
I highly recommend the PsychScene MEQ (Modified Essay Question) preparation program to any psychiatry trainee preparing for their exams. Dr. Sanil Rege’s teaching style is engaging, structured, and incredibly insightful. He has a remarkable ability to break down complex clinical scenarios into clear, manageable frameworks that are not only useful for exam preparation but also highly applicable in day-to-day clinical practice. One of the most helpful aspects of the course was Dr. Rege’s new approach to tackling MEQs, especially when it came to navigating the often-confusing wording in exam instructions (describe, discuss, justification, etc). His method simplified what initially seemed like convoluted tasks, helping me focus on the clinical reasoning and structure of my answers rather than getting lost in semantics. The MEQ course is thoughtfully designed, focusing on high-yield content and strategies tailored specifically to the format of the RANZCP exams. Dr. Rege emphasises clinical reasoning, formulation skills, and diagnostic clarity—all essential components for success in MEQs and real-world psychiatry. The use of case-based learning, visual aids, and structured templates significantly enhances both understanding and retention. What sets this program apart is Dr. Rege’s genuine dedication to improving trainee performance and confidence. His passion for psychiatry and education is evident throughout the course. The feedback, tips, and clinical pearls he provides are invaluable. Thanks to this program, I felt much more confident approaching the MEQs and gained deeper insight into clinical reasoning that will benefit me throughout my career. It’s an investment well worth making.

Excellent course content - MCQ
Excellent course content. The Psych Scene EMQ and CAP course was one of my main resources of study for the RANZCP exam. It is not just about the practice questions provided but the approach to the questions that is crucial. Dr. Rege emphasises the approach throughout the videos which is what I found most useful not only for the exam but also for working through clinical problems in practice.
Fantastic course - MCQ
I recently completed the MCQ exam. The course was fantastic and covered the essential criteria covered in the exam. The CAP section was great to get a solid grounding of the key concepts and is actually enough to get through the exam. Keep up the great work @ Psych Scene.
