CustomGPT: Simulated OSPE for FRCPath microbiology part 2

AI, or to be more specific LLM’s like ChatGPT can be used for education effectively. However, this needs a good understanding of LLM and domain expertise. In other words, if you want to use LLM effectively, you must have a working knowledge of LLM, its capabilities and its problems, but you must know your subject as well – in this case, a good understanding of how the microbiology FRCPath examination works.

So, knowing how difficult it is for microbiology trainees to get practice with face-to-face OSPE, I built this custom GPT that will serve as an examiner, using carefully crafted case vignettes and custom GPT instructions. This is now available to the microregistrar.moodlecloud.com members.

  1. You select the Question you want to practice.
  2. CustomGPT will give you the option to select the type of examiner and difficulty
  3. It will give you 5 min to read the case vignette.
  4. Once you are ready, it will ask you a question and take you through the scenario like a real examiner
  5. 9 minutes/station
  6. It will give you feedback after this
