A paper based assessment was piloted in 11 medical schools involving over 1300 medical students, during spring/ summer 2010. Piloting will continue and decisions around implementation will be based on consensus and evidence. It is intended that an online pilot of the Prescribing Skills Assessment will be carried out during 2011/12 by all final year medical students in the UK. This will be a pilot assessment and your performance will not impact on ability to graduate.
