Candidate access requires Student membership plus the Viva add-on.
How a station runs.
Each Viva station is split into four parts. Every part has its own prompt, with material revealed as you reach it and an examiner guide to compare against. You get reading time and a station clock, and the guide is there for you or for a partner.
Work through the four parts at your own pace or use the practice timer.
- Read the candidate material.
- Work through timed phases and staged reveals.
- Use the examiner guide to mark and review.

With a partner
Candidate and examiner
The candidate opens a station and shares an examiner link. Your partner follows the examiner guide and marks your responses. An invited examiner joins by code without a separate membership.
Before you invite a partner.
Keep invitations within your study group. Review the profile information shown in the room, and use the supplied practice scenarios without real patient details.
Invitation-based practice.
Medcue offers invitation-based practice, with no public partner-listing board.
Access and price.
Viva Interactive is an optional add-on at A$6.99 a month. It needs an active Student membership and is billed separately.
