Format from the ICGP’s SJT & CPST Blueprint 2026. Check the current Guide to Applicants for this year’s dates.
Training runs through 13 regional GP training schemes: two years in hospital posts, then two in general practice.
SHO posts in areas such as emergency medicine, paediatrics, obstetrics and gynaecology, medicine and psychiatry, with weekly half-day teaching on your scheme.
Two years in a training practice under a GP trainer, with two hours of teaching from your trainer and a full day of scheme teaching each week.
Check each answer as you go, or answer everything and review at the end, against the clock if you like.
Ranking answers lose a point for each place out, so you can see how close you were.
Each SJT option has its own note on why it’s right or wrong, not just the answer key.
Your dashboard puts your weakest topics on top, with a rhythm strip of your daily scores.
